Do you have to max bet to win a jackpot?
So, the answer is, no. You can't win the progressive without spending max credits. Some machines do have more than one progressive that can be won. But to win the progressive jackpot you will have to bet the maximum.

Who wins the bet if its a tie?
Yes. For betting purposes, a push is basically a tie between the bettor and the sportsbook. There's no winner or loser for the wager. For games that end up tied, such as an NFL regular season game that's not settled during overtime, the end result is the same.

Who wins a bet if its a draw?
If one of the results is a tie, then most sportsbooks will remove that wager from the equation and settle the bet based on the results of the other legs. Most two-leg parlays will push if either leg pushes and another wins.

Can you push on a moneyline bet?
There's no winner or loser for the wager. For games that end up tied, such as an NFL regular season game that's not settled during overtime, the end result is the same. If you had bet on the moneyline for that game, your bet is a push but the spread will have a winner.
