Moneyline betting—also called a straight win bet—is the simplest wager you can place on any sporting event. In Kenya, all online betting sites are regulated by the Betting Control and Licensing Board (BCLB), so you can play with peace of mind. You just pick the team or athlete you reckon will win, stake your KSh, and enjoy the action. Bet responsibly. Gambling can be addictive. For help, call 0800 722 200 or visit Responsible Gaming KE.
How straight-win bets work
No fuss with handicaps or point spreads—just choose who you think will finish first. If it’s a team sport like football (soccer), basketball or baseball, you back a side. If it’s an individual contest—say tennis or boxing—you bet on the player you believe will lift the trophy. Even multi-runner events such as Formula 1, track and field or swimming often feature moneyline markets.
