How Sportsbook Odds Work
Looking to place a bet but don’t know where to start? Consider some of the most common betting types, such as the moneyline, spread, and over/under. A moneyline bet means that you think one of the teams will win. Simple as that! And if they do, and you bet $10 on odds of -110, you’d get $19 back.
While it can be a tad more complicated, betting against the point spread can offer a bigger payout or better chance to win in certain circumstances. If a team, for example, is +3, the +3 means that they must win, tie, or lose by no more than the spread amount to “cover.” But if their opponent wins by more than the spread, then they will “cover” the spread, making them the winning side of the wager.
A simpler way to bet is to wager on a game’s over/under (or point total). All you have to do is pick whether you believe the combined score of both teams will be higher or lower than the set “total” at the end of the game. It’s that simple. As an example, let’s say you bet $10 on the over (with odds of -110). If you pick correctly, you’d get back $19.
What are Bonus Bets?
Almost every legal U.S. sportsbook offers bonus bet offers for both new and existing customers, which give the user credits or funds with which they can bet as if it were real money. New users can get these bonuses via promotions and bonus codes offered by sportsbooks and their partners when they place their first deposit, while existing users are often given bonus bets as part of in-app challenges or as rewards for regular play.
Do Bonus Bets Expire?
Bonus bets and similar offers can have expiration dates. The specific terms and conditions for these promotions vary by sportsbook and offer, so it is prudent to use these offers quickly after obtaining them, unless the terms clearly indicate a no-expiration bonus. When it comes to offers for new deposits, it is advisable to make your deposit and trigger the offer when you can place several bets to maximize the benefit of the bonus.
Do Bonus Bets Pay Cash?
Although bonus bets can’t be directly cashed out, the majority of authorized sportsbooks permit the withdrawal of earnings from bonus bets just like actual money. Take note that certain deals and sportsbooks might impose withdrawal limits or distribute the winnings incrementally – always verify the specifics of the offer. By and large, a substantial victory from a bonus bet typically means real cash for you!

Are Bonus Bets Free?
Wwhile it’s true that bonus bets typically necessitate a deposit or some form of wager at a sportsbook, it’s not always the case. Occasionally, sportsbooks do give out complimentary funds to players, although this isn’t standard practice. On the bright side, newcomers often have the chance to deposit a minimal amount — sometimes as low as five dollars — and still acquire big bonuses. This means that with a modest initial deposit or real money bet, you’re able to unlock a series of bonus bets or credits.
Which Sportsbooks Can I Trust?
In the United States, since the Supreme Court overruled a previous ban on sports betting in 2018, many states have voted to legalize wagering in their state with online sportsbooks. States offer strict guidelines and regulations for sportsbooks to do business in their area, so check to see that your preferred app or website is registered and recognized by your state’s regulators. If it is, you can trust that the sportsbook is held to a high standard and is operating legally within both the country, state and city you are in. Some of the most popular sportsbooks, such as DraftKings and FanDuel, have been in operation as either a fantasy or gambling site for many years, while those associated with casinos, such as BetMGM and Caesars, have an even longer history and background in sports wagering.
Do I Need to Make a Deposit to Get My Promo?
To qualify for the first-time user promotional offer from a sportsbook, a real-money deposit is generally necessary. Upon registering and adding funds to your account, the provider may also stipulate the placement of an initial bet. Following these actions, your bonus credits or complimentary bets are typically awarded.
What is a No Deposit Bonus?
Occasionally, sportsbooks present both newcomers and current bettors with opportunities to obtain free bets or bonus money even before they are required to deposit or place a bet. Although rare, and often linked to rewards promotions for current members, you should keep a look out for any special promotions designed that might provide the chance to gamble without an initial deposit into your account.
Is There a Bonus Code for Existing Users?
Sportsbooks do offer promo codes and bonus offers for existing users regularly! However, unlike first-time player offers, these bonuses for loyal users are often delivered via email or in-app notifications or messages (rather than as a promo code or special link), so if you’re already signed up with a sportsbook, check to see if any ongoing promotions could earn you a free bet, deposit bonus or other benefit.

Saronic Technologies is at the center of a major shift in naval warfare, a move toward autonomous vessels, artificial intelligence and faster defense manufacturing, The New York Times reports.
That shift gained attention after a June rescue mission near the Strait of Hormuz, when a Saronic-built Corsair unmanned vessel helped recover two stranded military aviators after their helicopter was downed. Navy officials said the mission demonstrated how autonomous systems can reduce risk and save lives.
For Louisiana, the larger story is Saronic’s decision to establish a major manufacturing presence in Franklin. The Austin-based defense technology company acquired the former Gulf Craft shipyard and is expanding the facility as it works to move from prototype development into higher-volume production of autonomous vessels.

Saronic is also competing for a role in the Navy’s roughly $2.1 billion effort to build a new fleet of medium-sized unmanned surface vessels. The company was among seven firms selected to continue in the competition, but the process has sparked controversy. Some competitors argue that the Navy gave Saronic preferential treatment, while the Defense Department denies any political favoritism and says the selections were based on technical capability and readiness.
The competition reflects a broader transformation in defense contracting. Traditional military shipbuilders are now competing with newer defense technology companies that combine software, artificial intelligence, autonomous systems and private investment. Saronic’s strategy has been to pair that technology approach with shipbuilding capacity, including its Louisiana facility.
The Franklin shipyard is a key part of that strategy. Saronic plans to expand the site to support production of larger autonomous surface vessels, including its Marauder platform, as the Pentagon increasingly looks for scalable systems that can complement traditional naval assets.
For Louisiana’s maritime industry, the investment highlights the state’s potential role in the next generation of defense manufacturing. The region’s existing shipbuilding workforce and industrial base provide a foundation for companies seeking to build advanced vessels, though expansion will depend on maintaining a pipeline of skilled workers such as welders, fabricators and marine technicians.
Louisiana pastor Tony Spell must stay 50 yards from his neighbor’s home unless he’s checking the mail after a protection order was issued against him – as shocking bodycam appears to show him using a homophobic slur to describe his alleged assault victim, just two days after he was arrested.
Spell, 48, is banned from speaking with the neighbor either online and in person, according to the order issued Friday, which has since been reported by The Advocate.
“Mr Spell may walk over and check his mailbox; other than checking his mailbox, he is to be 50 yards away from the protected person’s property,” a note on the order says.
Pastor Tony Spell allegedly assaulted his neighbor’s son after he threatened to kill and rape his wife. WBRZ
Spell, the pastor of Baton Rouge’s Life Tabernacle Church, will appear in court in September after being charged with second degree battery over last month’s assault that unfolded opposite the church.

He claimed Scott Sherwin’s son had threatened to rape and kill his wife before delivering 35 blows.
But two days after the brawl Scott Sherwin reported Spell for allegedly mowing his lawn at 4 a.m., WBRZ reported.
“He’s doing this to intimidate my victim son,” Sherwin claimed in bodycam video seen by The Post.
“Do you cut your grass at 4 in the morning?” he asked the responding officer.
“You gotta get him to stop man,” the furious dad said.

Sherwin claimed his family was unable to sleep – alleging Spell was carrying out “psychological warfare.”
An enraged Sherwin then swore at his neighbor, allegedly flipping him off, according to the bodycam.

“I was asleep when this started at four in the morning,” Sherwin stressed, aggressively pointing at his phone.
The cop then went over to Spell, who was sitting on his lawnmower, before asking for his name.
“Everybody in the world knows my name,” Spell brazenly replied to the cop.

Spell, who faces up to eight years in prison if convicted, then labeled Sherwin’s son a “f—-t” and seemed to take pride in the now-viral beatdown.
“He’s just sore because I beat the crap out of his f—-t boy,” he said.
“And he’s next if he comes over here and harasses these boys,” Spell said, speaking while a group of teens gathered nearby.

Spell then started his lawnmower up and told the boys “get to work,” essentially ordering them to clear off.
Spell strongly defended his actions after being released from jail over the assault.

“Number one, I’m a husband, number two, I’m a father, and number three, I’m a pastor who shepherds his flock,” he said. “I will not allow a man to murder my children when I’m gone,” he told reporters.
He revealed what Sherwin’s son allegedly said, which prompted the beatdown.
“He said, ‘Tony, I’m going to rape your wife, I’m going to rape all your grandchildren, and the next time you go out of town, I’m going to kill them,’” Spell said.
He addressed the altercation to his congregation and compared it to “domestic terrorism.” He also cited a Bible passage from Mark 16:18, WAFB reported.

“In my name, they shall lay hands on the sick. And they shall recover,” he said.
“So today, I fulfilled the scripture. I laid hands on the sick. I don’t know how much recovery they’re going to have, but I laid hands on the sick.”
Spell has been in a longstanding feud with Sherwin; the pastor filed a lawsuit during the pandemic in 2020 over surveillance cameras that were installed.
During the COVID-19 pandemic, Spell was ticketed for holding in-person church services, defying Louisiana’s social distancing restrictions.
Spell claimed the cameras were installed to monitor him.

In April 2020, Spell was accused of attacking a protester outside his church. Police alleged that Spell backed his church bus in the direction of the protester, who was identified as Trey Bennett, according to news station WAFB-TV.
He was arrested for aggravated assault but never formally charged.
A new study from researchers at LSU’s Pennington Biomedical Research Center, FMOL Health | Our Lady of the Lake Regional Medical Center, and the Metamor Institute found that metabolic and bariatric surgery can be delivered safely and effectively for adolescents and young adults living with severe obesity, leading to significant weight loss and improvements in obesity-related health conditions.
Published in Obesity Surgery, the study examined outcomes from 76 patients ages 10 to 25 who underwent bariatric surgery through a Louisiana-based program at the Metamor Institute between January 2020 and March 2025. Researchers evaluated safety outcomes as well as longer-term health improvements associated with surgical obesity treatment.
The study found that patients achieved an average total body weight loss of 29%-32% maintained over one to five years. Among patients with available follow-up data, 94% experienced remission of type 2 diabetes, 67% showed improvement in hypertension and dyslipidemia and 64% experienced improvement in gastroesophageal reflux disease. Surgical complications remained low, with only 5% of patients experiencing complications within 30 days of surgery.

Researchers noted that these outcomes were likely supported by a comprehensive, multidisciplinary care model that included experienced surgeons, nutritional guidance, behavioral support and coordinated medical follow-up. The study population represented a broad cross-section of Louisiana patients, with nearly 75% covered by Medicaid, highlighting the importance of ensuring access to effective obesity treatment options across socioeconomic backgrounds.
The findings support current American Academy of Pediatrics recommendations that adolescents age 13 and older with severe obesity and related health risks be evaluated for metabolic and bariatric surgery as part of comprehensive, evidence-based obesity care.
