US & other team sports

Promotions for American leagues often arrive around finals and playoff weeks, with prices reshaped for British readers. This section explains that reshaping.

American football and basketball lead, with baseball and ice hockey close behind; handball, volleyball and esports sit below them, with kabaddi, water polo and floorball at the foot. Spreads, totals and player props displace the simple three-way football market.

British bookmakers show fractions or decimals and no American odds, so converting is a matter of arithmetic. Virtual events are their own licence category: that tells a reader a product may be offered, not how its rules work.
