The Hard Rock website offers wagers on twelve of the most well-known sports. The number of bets available for each sport can be impressive at times. For example, there are a multitude of betting options for leagues like the MLB. The site also features sports such as rugby, cycling and MMA. If you are looking for exotic or smaller sports however, they can not be found here.
However, there are some smaller sporting events available for betting, such as the FIBA world basketball tournament.The design of the website is an eyeful. The home page features two different sets of tabs. One features sports you can choose from and the other different leagues.
Scrolling down the home page shows the all of the upcoming games separated by sport along with the odds information next to them. The first section of the page features all live games with the second showing the games that will start soon.
It is easy to navigate through the different sports and to find the specific game you want to bet on. The second tab line features the popular American league the NBA, NHL, MLB. The NFL is featured twice on the second tab line, both in NFL and NFL Preseason.
Football
The Hard Rock football section features bets on both the NFL, NCAA and the CFL. The bets available for the CFL games are traditional bets. You are offered to bet on the moneyline, on totals or on the spread. There are different varieties of the spread though, and you can choose how many points to add from around three options. The NFL of course has more offers on display.
For the NFL, you can also bet on the totals, moneyline and the spread, but there are more options available for these bets. You make wagers on these three types of bets for the whole game or just for one half. For the totals there are different totals predictions to bet on as well as individual team totals available. The spread is the same. The NCAA has the same bets as the CFL, limited to just the three main bets at full time. Futures bets are also available for all three leagues.
For the CFL you are offered odds on who will win the 2019 Grey Cup. The NCAA and NFL have similar futures bets available. You can wager on the champion, individual conference winners and individual awards like the Heisman or Rookie of the Year awards.
