What does the term "1st quarter winner (3 Way) No Push" mean in the world of basketball betting? What is meant by the term "1st quarter winner (3 Way) no push"?

In basketball betting, the "1st quarter winner (3 way) no push" line allows you to bet on which team will be ahead at the end of the first quarter, OR if you think that the game will be a tie at the end of the first.

"No push" means that the bets will not be refunded in the event that the 1st quarter ends in a tie, so you need to plan for this possibility when putting down your bet.

For instance, let's say that the Philadelphia 76ers are playing on the road against the New York Knicks.

The 76ers are favored to win, so it stands to reason that they would be favored to be ahead at the end of the 1st quarter.

So, the "1st quarter winner (3 way) no push" odds might look something like this:

Philadelphia 76ers, -150
Tie, +1400
New York Knicks, +120

So, if you think that the 76ers will be ahead at the end of the first quarter, you would receive $100 in profit for every $150 wagered if you proved to be correct in your assumption.

If you think that the Knicks might jump out in front early in front of their home fans, you'd might want to take them at +120 to be leading at the end of the first quarter.

If you wanted to be different and bet on a tie at the end of the first quarter, that would pay out at a massive +1400, meaning that you would receive $1,400 in profit for every $100 wagered if the longshot bet came to fruition.
