Circled Games

Circled refers to games with restrictions on the type of wagers allowed or the amount of money allowed to be wagered.

Games are circled when important information (needed to help determine the point spread or odds on a game) is unknown. One main factor that attributes to “circling” a game is when key players for a team are injured and their status for the game is unknown. Circled game restrictions vary from case to case, but usually these games will involve a reduced wager limit or will not be permitted for certain wager types, such as teasers.

Some examples of Circled Games are:

•Added games (games not on the regular Las Vegas rotation)
•Special sports such as boxing, NASCAR, tennis, golf
•Games involving teams who report injuries, suspensions or trade of important players
