Hi,

Unless I'm mistaking, totals wagering at most bookies includes overtime.

This means the final score, used to grade the wager, can be any odd number (1,3,5,7,etc...).

If you take a look at lines.therx.com for today's games, you'll see that depending on the game, the delimiter is either 5.5, 6, or 6.5.

Why are they different ? Why aren't they all 6 ?

If the final score is 5, then all of Under 5.5 / Under 6 / Under 6.5 lines would win.

If the final score is 7, then all of Over 5.5 / Over 6 / Over 6.5 lines would win.
