spread
betting hotshots bets
the bookmaker nominates 4 players who are known as hotshots.
these players score 25 points for each goal that they score
in the match, and 8 points are awarded if the player does
not appear at any time during the game. with this bet you
can have 4 strikers playing for you at the same time!
spread betting hotshots example:
for a liverpool v everton match, your four hotshots might
be:
campbell
ferguson
fowler
heskey
our price might be 28 - 32 (we expect this bunch to score
at least one goal between them.)
if liverpool won the game 3-0 and fowler scored twice?
had you sold hotshots at 28 (expecting none of these 4 to
score), you would have lost 22 times your stake.
22 x £5 = -£110 (as 2 fowler goals = 50 points)
but if the game had ended 0-0, the same bet would have
won you 28 times your stake.
28 x £10 = £140 (if none of the player score,
the make-up is 0)
it is important to remember that if campbell and fowler
did not play and the game ended 0 - 0, the make-up would
be 16 (8pts awarded if player does not play).
