A proposition (or prop bet) is simply a bet on something other than a game spread or total and these are generally considered some of the easiest for a player to beat. When you see the line on an NFL game, it is the result of at least a dozen separate odds makers whose collective opinion is merged to form the market. When you bet on a proposition, it’s typically your opinion versus one odds maker. If you know more than that one odds maker, you are going to get the best of it.

Proposition (prop) bets are offered on a variety of different events that happen during a game and range from which team will win the coin toss to a match-up between two players in a particular event or game. Due to the variety of different proposition bets offered, the terms and conditions are noted individually for each bet offer when making a bet. Like future bets, all odds offered are to win only unless otherwise noted.
