What is TT in Betting?
You may not be familiar with the many terms used in Sports Betting, but TT, or Team Totals refers to the total number of points, goals, or runs a specific team is expected to score in a game.
Team totals are a popular betting option that allows bettors to wager on the performance of a single team rather than the outcome of the entire game.
Understanding what TT means in betting is crucial for anyone looking to explore this type of wager. Unlike traditional point spreads or over/under bets that consider both teams' combined scores, team totals focus solely on one team's offensive output.
How to Place Team Total Bets
To place bets on team totals, bettors typically follow a straightforward process.
First, they select the sport and specific game they want to bet on. Then, they locate the team total options for their chosen team, which are usually listed alongside other betting markets.
Once the desired team total is identified, bettors use their own research or tail another bettor to decide whether they believe the team will score over or under the specified number.
After making this decision, they enter their stake and confirm the wager. It's important to note that the odds for team total bets can vary significantly depending on factors such as team performance, injuries, and betting trends — and can change over time accordingly.
