US & other team sports

Leagues with long pauses, quarters and innings suit live betting well, and British bookmakers quote them in local style. The section tracks how that works.

American football, basketball, baseball and ice hockey come first. Handball and volleyball follow, then esports, kabaddi, field hockey, floorball and water polo. Football has simply home, draw or away; here, spreads, totals and player lines take over.

Fractions and decimals are the British forms. American odds are not used here, so converting means a little arithmetic and nothing more. Virtual events have a licence category of their own, which marks a product as licensed without describing how it plays.
