The website also features an 'Odds Boost' section where the player can find different bets with largely inflated odds. This is a section featured on many sportsbooks but is especially interesting here because they will show you the previous odds as well as the boosted ones.

They also have daily boosts where there are inflated odds for games of the day. For example, in a Premier League game there could be an inflated offer for Liverpool to win by three or more goals.

The sportsbook is also especially good when it comes to the bets available for MLB games and the number of leagues available in soccer.

DraftKings Sportsbook Football Betting

DraftKings coverage of football is about as good as it gets for a sportsbook. The section offers bets on the NFL, CFL, NCAA and even on Arena Football. The number of bets offered vary by the prominence of the league.

The CFL has more bets offered than just about any other sportsbook in New Jersey.

You can of course bet on the winner, the spread or on totals. The spread and total point are also available for the first half only. However, there are also a couple of prop bets offered to the player. For example, you can bet on which team will score first or whether the total score will be odd or even.

The NCAA and the NFL have the widest range of bets offered.

These usually involve bets on the spread and total bets on the points. For the NFL, there is a wide variety of futures bets on like individual awards. You can bet on who will win Coach of the Year, Rookie of the Year (Offensive/ Defensive), Comeback Player of the Year and NFL Draft picks.

There are several handicap lines and alternative total runs bets that you can make as well.

For the alternate total runs, you can select a run total all the way up to +14.5. The selection of prop bets on display is also very good. Bets here include home/away team to score first and win, total runs from each team and the last team to score among others.

You can also bet on the first team to score a certain number of runs. The range for this bet goes from two to five runs. There are various bets available for certain innings and number of innings as well. You can make a bet on which team will win the first inning.

Total number of runs bets are also available for the first inning, the first three innings and the first five innings. Handicap bets are also listed in this fashion along with plenty of alternative lines.

DraftKings Sportsbook Soccer Betting

The most popular sport in the world deserves an adequate sportsbook section and DraftKings does not disappoint. The sportsbook features the top five leagues as well as the MLS at the top. However, DraftKings offers bets for many leagues besides the most popular.

That does not just mean the top five however as most of the leagues have a good amount of variety in the bets offered. For a league like Premier League however the possibilities are endless. You can bet on which player will be the first or last to score.

The main bets are all there with many variations for each. The list of prop bets available is almost endless.

You can bet on whether a team will score a penalty or not, on if there will be a comeback win, a player given a red card or not, etc. For totals bets you can bet on the total number of corners, cards given, points in the first and second half, total scores of the away or home team and more.

DraftKings Sportsbook has recently rolled out a new, more comprehensive live-betting section called Flash-bet. The DraftKings live section of the website shows all of the games that are currently being played. The odds constantly update as new events unfold.

What DraftKings live does is allow players to bet on games as they are being played. 

This is a good way to view all of the live games from each sports being played and to find that perfect split-second live bet. Although there are no live streams on the site, you can still feel comfortable making bets with the live scoreboard in the Flash-Bet section. 

On the left side of the screen will be all of the other live games being played, allowing you to switch through games with ease. You can also place bets in this section. The markets for all the available bets will be below the screen in a drop down format.

If you are focused on a bet in one game, then you will still gain the added excitement that comes from live betting by focusing on the match tracker. Draftkings live section has match trackers for many of the games in this section, and shows things like ball position, scores, fouls and more.
