Hi everyone, in this post I will explain a betting term for beginners: what does "push" mean in sports betting? I know that expert members will find this explanation basic, but it is meant to help newbies understand some terms that you and I may have ignored when we started playing in the past
That being said, what is a push in sports betting? A "push" occurs when bettors get back their money because they neither win nor lose the bet. Well, The concept is easy to understand. Imagine there's a match between Real Madrid and Barcelona. You place a bet on Real Madrid with a point spread of -1. This means Real Madrid needs to win by more than 1 goal for you to win the bet. Right?
If Real Madrid wins by exactly 1 goal (e.g., 2-1), the result is a "push." Your bet neither wins nor loses, and your stake is refunded.
If Real Madrid wins by more than 1 goal (e.g., 3-1), you win the bet.
If Real Madrid draws or loses, you lose the bet.
