How to Place a Straight Bet on FanDuel

First, let me explain what a straight bet is. A straight bet is a type of wager where you bet on a single event or outcome. For example, you might bet on a particular team to win a game, or on a specific player to score the first goal. Straight bets are one of the simplest and most common types of sports betting.

Now, here are the step-by-step instructions for placing a straight bet on FanDuel:

1. Go to the FanDuel website or app and log in to your account. If you don't have an account yet, you'll need to create one by following the instructions on the site.

2. Once you're logged in, navigate to the sport you want to bet on. FanDuel offers a wide range of sports to bet on, so choose the one you're interested in.

3. Find the game or event you want to bet on, and click on it to see the available betting options.

4. Look for the "Moneyline" option, which is a type of straight bet where you simply pick which team or player you think will win. The odds for each team or player will be listed next to their name.

5. Decide which team or player you want to bet on, and click on their name to select them.

6. Enter the amount you want to bet in the "Bet Slip" section of the screen. You can choose to bet any amount within the site's minimum and maximum limits.

7. Review your bet slip to make sure everything looks correct, and click the "Place Bet" button to confirm your wager.

8. Wait for the game or event to finish to see if your bet was a winner. If it was, the winnings will be credited to your account.
