Why would you get a negative money line?
Favorites on the moneyline are almost always denoted with a minus sign (we'll explain the “almost” part later). So, for instance, let's say a moneyline favorite appears as -180 on the betting board. That minus sign indicates the amount of money one must wager to win $100. So a bettor looking to win $100 will risk $180.
