A Total Over bet, commonly known as an Over/Under, is a wager on the combined final score of both teams in a basketball game.
The key phrase here is "Including Overtime." This means that all points scored during the regular game time plus any points scored in an overtime period will count towards the final total for your bet.
Example:
Imagine an NBA game on MSport with a Total points line set at 220.5.
You bet on "Total Over 220.5."
At the end of the 4th quarter, the score is 105-105 (Total: 210 points).
The game goes into Overtime, where the teams score a combined 15 points.
Final Score (including OT): 113 - 112.
Final Combined Total: 113 + 112 = 225 points.
Result: Your "Over 220.5" bet is a WIN because 225 is greater than 220.5.
