Concept and types

Now let's analyze in detail what the handicap betting. This is a bet (money) on any sporting event or match in which one of the participants comes into play, with a conditional start. The advantage depending on the sport, can be expressed in points, points, minutes, or goals. The rate can be positive – if you put on the leader and negative - for the outsider.

In addition, the handicaps are divided into Asian and European.

What does the handicap betting

Handicap-European

European handicap (EH) offers three possible outcomes of the event – win, draw, loss, and uses only integer values to define the advantages, for example, 0:3 or 0:1.

In that case, if the final score is exactly at odds, then it's a draw. For example, if you bet on European handicapany team (-1), then for all practical purposes, the handicap bet of -1.5 in, as in the case of the team winning by one goal will be the winning bet on a tie.

Varieties

A Brief look at the basic types of Asian handicaps:

  • Handicap 0 - Draw no Bet, DNB. Some bookmakers call it “Draw: no rates”. In the case of the team winning the bet wins. If the result of the match-a draw, then the player gets back the money he put. The team lost – the player loses, and the money «left». This rate is useful if you have two roughly equal teams, and the probability of a draw is high.
  • Handicap 1. If the handicap is -1, the team needs to win at least with two goals. If the team on which the bet was made, lose or achieve a draw, the player will lose money. If the meeting ended with the victory with one goal, your stake will be returned unchanged.Asian handicap

You Can put on the winning team, with a handicap of +1, adding to the final invoice for the selected team one goal. If given the ball, she wins – your money. In that case, if taken advantage of 1 goal in the match was “draw” - just return the money. In all other scenarios, the bet is a loser. For example, you bet on the victory of the “Volga” with a handicap of +1 against the «Zenith». If “Volga” will be the winner or draw-bet will win. If the team loses by 1 goal, then the money is simply returned. Stavka is lost if “Zenith” will score 2 or more goals.

  • Handicap 1.5. In that case, if you take the handicap at -1.5, then to win it is necessary that the team scored at least two goals, at any expense a smaller bet will lose. With the advantage of +1.5 to obtain the money you need to make the team either won or grela a draw or one goal conceded.
  • Double Asian handicap. In this case the player's bet is divided into two parts. For example, if the selected handicap +0.75, half goes to handicap +0.5, and the second part – at +1.

Thus, to calculate the Asian handicap is quite simple: the final result plus the selected advantage. If the team won-the bet wins, a draw the money is returned, the losing team – the loss of money.
