Ching nets a pair as Houston earns draw at Revs

Soccer Betting Lines

07/23/2007 - Foxborough, MA (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - Brian Ching scored two second-half goals within a minute of each other to help the Houston Dynamo leave Gillette Stadium with a point in a 3-3 draw with the New England Revolution.

Dwayne De Rosario also found the back of the net for the Dynamo, who extended their unbeaten streak to 11 games. The club has a league-high 34 points and has not lost since May 27, at D.C.

Taylor Twellman and Pat Noonan each registered a goal and an assist for the Revolution, who remain undefeated in July.

Noonan broke open a scoreless match in the 32nd minute with a chip shot from the top of the box into an empty net.

It was the first goal that Houston surrendered since June 10, ending a streak of seven straight shutouts.

De Rosario knotted the affair at 1-1 for the Dynamo in the 49th minute courtesy of a perfectly placed ball up high in the left corner from 25 yards away.

However, only two minutes later Twellman notched his team-high eighth goal of the season to put the Revs back ahead on a one-timer from nine yards out.

Houston was down 2-1, but Ching netted goals in the 60th and 61st minute to give his club a one-goal cushion. His first tally was a tap-in from inside the goal area, with his second coming off a header a few yards from the goal line.

Sharlie Joseph capped off the scoring in the 66th minute to draw New England even on a penalty kick. His first shot from the spot was turned away by Houston goalkeeper Pat Onstad, but a Houston defender jumped in the box too early, and Joseph cashed in on his second attempt.

With the draw, the Revs won the season series after capturing a 1-0 victory over Houston back on May 19 in the only other scheduled meeting of 2007. The Revs have never lost to Houston in four all-time, regular season matches.

Joseph, who was nursing a quad strain on Sunday, also scored against the Dynamo in the earlier encounter.

New England has only lost once in eight matches in Foxborough this season. In fact, New England has collected three or more goals in six of those eight home outings.

Matt Reis has started every game this season between the posts for the Revs.

Why Sports Betting is so much fun?

Betting Sports

The most popular sports to bet on are NFL and college football along with NBA and NCAA basketball. There are multiple betting opportunities within those sports, beginning with the basic wager on a game’s outcome (also called betting the side). College Football Point spreads are used in both football and basketball in an attempt to even the attractiveness of each team in a match-up. ( See our article detailing how and why point spreads are made)

But you could also simply bet on the money line, or straight-up winner of the game. Oddsmakers use the money line so that more money must be risked on the favorite or expected winner and less money on the underdog to balance the action on both sides. While money line gambling is an attractive option for football and basketball bettors who only care about picking a winner, it is the primary option for those bettors who enjoy wagering on MLB baseball and individual sports like boxing, tennis, golf and racing events such as NASCAR. ( More details on playing the Money Line)

Points (or Runs) Scored

Another bet across all major team sports including football, basketball, baseball, and hockey involves wagering on the amount of scoring in a game, called an Over/Under total. For example, the Over/Under total on Super Bowl XXXIX was 48, which means a bettor could wager whether there would be more or less than 48 points scored by both teams combined in the game.

The final score of Super Bowl XXXIX was 24-21; the scoring of both teams added up to 45, which means the game went Under . So Under bettors won, and Over bettors lost.

Future Bets

Sports gambling doesn’t end there. Betting sides and totals are the most common wagers available everywhere, but many sportsbooks also offer future bets on big upcoming events like who will win next year’s Super Bowl and what movie will win Best Picture at the Academy Awards.

The main advantage of futures is that you can get appealing odds by betting far in advance. For example, with NFL futures you often can get much higher odds on a team by betting before the season even starts. A NFL future bet on a team to win the Super Bowl odds might be 20/1 in the preseason; but by midseason, their odds might decrease to 10/1 if they turn out to be legitimate championship contenders.

Proposition Bets (or Prop Bets)

Proposition bets , also known as prop bets, focus upon the more exotic aspects of a game and are generally reserved for events that are widely televised. Prop bets are extremely popular when it comes to wagering on the Super Bowl in Las Vegas. The Imperial Palace Casino’s sportsbook is well-known for the enormous number of prop bets offered. For example, you can bet on:

Types of Bets

Straight Bet

Involves one individual wager, whether it be on your team to cover the point spread, to win the game straight-up on the money line, or to go over/under the total.

Sports Betting Parlays

A parlay is a single bet that links together two or more individual wagers and is dependent on all of those wagers winning together. The benefit of the parlay bet is much better odds than placing each individual bet separately since the difficulty of hitting it is much higher.

Standard payoffs on a two-team parlay are 13/5; while a three-teamer pays 6/1; and a four-teamer 10/1.

Parlay cards are also fairly common in sportsbooks and popular with bettors, as they are released early in the week with set odds that do not change in return for a slightly lower payoff.

Round Robin Betting

Adventurous bettors who enjoy betting parlays sometimes put together a series of parlays called a Round Robin . A three-team Round Robin consists of one three-team parlay and three two-team parlays. For example, Joe likes teams A,B,C – with a Round Robin he has a three-teamer with ABC, and two-teamers with AB, AC, and BC.

Betting Teasers

Similar to a parlay, a teaser bet is a single bet that links together two or more individual wagers, but is different in that the point spread is adjusted to your advantage on each individual wager. In exchange for the points, you get less of a return on your bet compared to a parlay. For example, a 6-point teaser would move the line on a 7-point favorite from -7 to -1, meaning the team would have to cover 6 less points. Each of the individual wagers must win or the bet is a loss.

These are the main types of sports bets available today. But as sports betting continues to grow, sportsbooks will continue to develop new and creative ways to bet. We’ll continue to track these changes to the sports gambling landscape, so check back often and we’ll tell you all about it!
