How Sportsbook Odds Work
Looking to bet on a game today 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 the team you bet on will win, simple as that! And if they do, and you bet $10 with odds of -110, you’d get $19 back.
While it can be a bit 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 bet.
Looking for an easier way to bet on a game? Try wagering on the over/under (or point total). Simply pick whether you believe the combined score of both teams at the end of the contest will be higher or lower than the set “total.” That’s all there is to it.
What are Bonus Bets?
Nearly all legitimate sportsbooks in the U.S. provide promotional bet offers for new and current players, offering credits or funds (similar to real cash) that can be used for betting. Promotional links and bonus codes from sportsbooks and affiliated companies unlock these bonuses for new customers upon their initial deposit or wager. Conversely, regular players may receive bonus bets through rewards for frequent play or as incentives from in-app challenges.
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?
While users cannot withdraw bonus bets for cash value, most legal sportsbooks allow players to withdraw the winnings of their bonus bets as if it were real cash. There are some offers and sportsbooks which limit the amount you can withdraw or release the winnings over time, so be sure to double check offer details. But generally speaking, a big win on a bonus bet will result in money in your pocket!
Are Bonus Bets Free?
Not exactly. In almost all cases, a bonus bet requires a deposit or other betting action on a sportsbook. There are times when sportsbooks offer free funds to bettors, but this is the exception and not the rule. However, usually new users can deposit as little as five dollars to receive big bonuses, so if you’re looking to get started, it is possible to get quite a few free bets off of a single small deposit or real money wager.
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?
In most cases, you do need to make a cash deposit to get your first-time user promo offer with a sportsbook. Commonly, the company will ask that you register and deposit, and some will require you to place a bet, and then distribute your bonus credits or wagers upon successful completion of those steps.
What is a No Deposit Bonus?
Sometimes, sportsbooks will offer users — both new and existing — the chance at free wagers or bonus funds without having to place a deposit or make a wager first. These are uncommon and usually come from loyalty programs for existing users, but keep an eye out for any potential new user offers that could let you get in on the action without adding funds to your account first.
Is There a Bonus Code for Existing Users?
Regular users of sportsbooks aren’t left out when it comes to promotional deals and bonus opportunities! Although these offers typically aren’t available through a promo code or a specific URL like those for newcomers, loyal patrons can receive promotions directly through emails, in-app alerts, or messages. If you’re an established member of a sportsbook, keep an eye out for any ongoing promotions that might provide you with a free bet, a bonus on your deposit, or another reward.

US immigration authorities arrest Spanish-language news reporter in Tennessee
NASHVILLE, Tenn. — U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement arrested a reporter for a Spanish-language news outlet in Tennessee but agents didn’t have a warrant, according to court documents filed by this week her lawyer.
Estefany Rodriguez Flores, a reporter for Spanish-language news outlet Nashville Noticias who has done stories critical of ICE, was arrested Wednesday during a traffic stop and is being detained by ICE’s enforcement and removal operations, according to documents filed in federal court in Nashville. Her lawyers called for her immediate release.
Rodriguez, a Colombian citizen, entered the U.S lawfully and has been living in the U.S. for the past five years, court records filed by her lawyer show. She has a valid work permit, and she has applied for political asylum and legal status though her husband, who is a U.S. citizen.
Rodriguez was with her husband in a marked Nashville Noticias vehicle when it was surrounded by several other vehicles and she was taken to a detention center, the news outlet said in a statement.
ICE did not immediately respond to a request seeking comment.
ICE scheduled a meeting with Rodriguez on her case but it was rescheduled twice, first because the office was closed during a winter storm and the second time because an agent couldn’t find her appointment in the system, her lawyers said in court documents.
A new meeting was then set for March 17.
When she was arrested, Rodriguez was not shown any arrest warrant, only an immigration document telling her to appear before ICE. Her lawyer, Joel Coxander, has spoken to an ICE agent who indicated that there was no arrest warrant for her at the time of her arrest, her lawyer said in court documents.
Rodriguez joined Nashville Noticias in 2022, covering social, family, health, police and immigration issues, the news outlet’s statement said.
“She needs to reunite with her young daughter and husband to continue her legal process within the framework permitted by law,” the statement said.

Several men got out and demanded that our colleague be taken into custody for reasons that the legal team will specify at a later date.
Estefany Rodríguez was taken to a detention center.
Estefany Rodríguez holds a degree in journalism from Colombia, her native country, where she has worked for several years at various news outlets. She joined the Nashville Noticias team in 2022, covering social, family, health, police, and immigration issues.

Lady Vols fall to Alabama in SEC Tournament for seventh loss in row
GREENVILLE, SC – Lady Vols basketball had an underwhelming showing against Alabama, and it led to a winless trip to the SEC Tournament.
No. 6 seed Tennessee (16-13) never led in the second-round matchup with No. 11 Alabama (23-9) at Bon Secours Wellness Arena on March 5, and extended its losing streak to seven games with the 76-64 loss.
Janiah Barker led the Lady Vols with 20 points on 6-for-14 shooting, five rebounds and a steal, but also had seven turnovers. Zee Spearman added 13 points on 6-for-9 shooting with six rebounds, an assist and two blocks.
Talaysia Cooper, the team’s leading scorer, did not play in the game after 6:27 left in the third quarter. She had four points on 1-for-4 shooting with two assists, two steals and a rebound in 12 minutes.
The Lady Vols tied the game 12-12 in the first quarter, and by halftime they trailed by double digits – they never came back within single digits after halftime. Their defense didn’t show any improvement as they allowed Alabama to shoot 50% from the field and gave up 19 points off their 18 turnovers. Tennessee only scored 11 points off 13 forced turnovers.
The Lady Vols fell behind early when Alabama destroyed their press, passing through it for easy buckets to build a lead. When Tennessee stopped pressing, it still couldn’t get enough stops in the halfcourt. Alabama outscored UT 36-24 in the paint.
Freshman guard Deniya Prawl, who was listed as out on the SEC availability report, was not on the bench with the team.

How much have Tennessee gas prices risen amid war in Iran?
Gas prices on March 5 have gone up 27 cents in both the U.S., and in Tennessee compared to one week ago, which likely relates to the war in Iran, according to AAA – The Auto Club Group.
The national average for a gallon of regular unleaded gasoline is $3.25. Tennessee’s average on March 5 is $2.84, according to AAA.
The last time the national average made a similar weekly jump was back in March of 2022 during the start of the Russia/Ukraine conflict, AAA said.
“Oil prices are rising largely due to growing instability in a region that is essential to global energy markets,” AAA spokesperson Megan Cooper said. “Although the U.S. does not import oil from Iran, the country remains a major producer, supplying nations such as China and India. Any potential disruption to Iranian oil infrastructure can influence global supply expectations.”
Middle Tennessee county averages include:
- Davidson County: $2.90
- Williamson County: $3.12
- Rutherford County: $2.87
- Wilson County: $2.88
- Sumner County: $2.89
- Robertson County: $2.90
- Cheatham County: $2.92
- Maury County: $2.85.
Crude oil pricing correlates to about 60% of what consumers pay at the pump, Cooper said. Recent global tensions tied to the conflict with Iran are adding upward pressure on crude oil prices, according to AAA.
Also, the Strait of Hormuz is a critical connection for the Persian Gulf to open waters as a shipping lane for crude oil. Because oil is traded globally, a shortfall in one region can impact prices throughout the world.
Tennessee and the southeast portion of the U.S. consistently rank among the least expensive markets for fuel. Proximity to refineries and pipeline infrastructure are major reasons for less expensive gas, according to AAA.
Tennessee is currently the fourth least expensive market in the U.S. for gas. The last time Tennessee’s average was over $3 per gallon for regular unleaded gas was August 2024.
Refineries are also starting the process of producing summer-blend gasoline. which contains additives to help reduce evaporation during warmer months and adds to the cost. Gas demand generally increases with the spring break season and the expectation of more road trips.
