NHL 3-Way Bet

Betting on theNHL adds excitement to the game, but determining its mechanics can be confusing.SportsBetting.com provides a simple guide on howNHL3-way betting works.

How DoThree-Way Bets Work?

Placing a bet on themoneyline means you’re betting on thestraight-up winner of a game.

However, some sports have three potential outcomes: win, lose, or draw. These outcomes provide a3-way line that allowsbettors to bet on one of the two teams or put their money on a match ending in a tie.

NHL,NBA,MLB,UFCmatchups, and theSuperbowl are just a few sports events wherebettors usethree-way moneyline betting.

Compared to a traditionaltwo-waymoneyline, a3-way betting option offers more value and a higherpayout tobettors, since it’s harder to guess the game’s outcome correctly.

What Is a3-Way Bet in Hockey?

Manysports betting sites offer 3-wayhockey betting options in NHLmatchups as aregulation time bet since most games frequently end in a tie after three periods.

If the bet doesn’t include penaltyshootouts or overtime, there’s a possibility that the outcome would be a draw.

The3-way betting strategy is the same as the traditionalmoneyline bet except that there are three probable outcomes rather than the regular two in theNHL games.

For example, in a matchup between the Rangers and the Devils, a standard, two-way moneyline bet may look like this:

New York Rangers	-200
New Jersey Devils	+170

With a3-way betting option, thebetting odds on offer will be greater since you’re broadening thepossible outcomes in the game.

Odds for a three-way moneyline bet may look like this:

New York Rangers	-125
Draw (Tie)	+310
New Jersey Devils	+280

Note that the three-way moneyline bet does not include overtime, which means you’re just betting on the result after the three periods.

The Rangers are still the favorite, but in the three-way moneyline option, odds for both teams are longer.

If you select either the Rangers or the Devils as an outright winner, you’ll see a bigger payout on the three-way moneyline than you would on the two-way moneyline.

The tie is considered the least likely option, so it has the longest odds and biggest payout.

A puckline is often usedto even the odds of ahockey game where the favorite team to win starts at a disadvantage and theunderdog starts at an advantage.

Meanwhile, live betting on a 3-way puckline sometimes includesa draw.

For example, theNHL betting options areteam A +1,team B -1, or draw. When the favoriteteam wins by 1, it’s a draw on thepuckline, which means you lose.

What Is a 3-WayParlay?

Aparlay is a bet across multiple games or within a single game. When you do this in several games in theNHL, you’re betting that all of the outcomes will happen as you’ve predicted.

Thebetting odds and the risk forparlay bets are higher. All bets in yourparlay must win. Your entireparlay loses when one of your bets loses.

Moneyline,point spread, and point totals are the three major lines you can use in anNHL bet. You can craft yourNHLparlay with any combination of these options.
