What Is A Futures Bet?
In the world of sports betting, a futures bet allows you to place a wager on an event or outcome that will be decided at some point in the future, rather than on the result of a single game happening right now. This type of bet can focus on things like which player will win a coveted award, which team will emerge victorious in a championship, or even a variety of other possibilities. Unlike the more traditional spread or moneyline bets, where you win or lose based on the score of a single competition, a futures bet can take months to resolve, as you wait to see how the entire season or tournament unfolds.
