i always thought the asian handicap was -.5, -1 where your action is split between -.5 and -1?

bakemcbride · Answer

yuice, Asian Handicap is simply a way style of wagering similar to "the spread" in other mainstream sports.

One style of soccer betting is "3-Way" where you have Team A money line, Team B moneyline and the Draw available.

Another style that Books offer is Asian Handicap or Spread, and that can be anything type of bet ranging from a Pickem to -.5 (similar to the Moneyline) to +.5 (also called Not to Lose or Double Chance) to -1, -1.5, -2, +1, +1.5, +2 and so on...

One type of betting we dont do much of here is the european handicap. I cant speak too much on it, but I do know that with EH, if you bet a team -1, they have to win by 2 or more goal or you lose your money (anyone from across the pond please correct me if Im wrong.

Yuice, what you were referring to is "Split betting" where 1/2 of your wager is on one bet and 1/2 of your wager is on another bet. That is used to cut down on juice for the bettor and to limit a book's exposure.

For Example, today in Germany 2, I bet under 2.25 goals at +114, which is also known as under 2, 2.5...it is a split bet, because i would rather make a plus money wager and push 1/2 my bet if it ends 2-0 or 1-1, then lay 40 cents in juice and get moosed in injury time with a 3rd goal.

So if it stays under 2 goals, i win 1.14 units
If it falls on 2 goals, i win 1/2 my bet, or .57 units
If it sails over, I only lose 1 unit.

I realize you already understand the split betting concept yiuce, but the explanation is directed towards the newer bettors who may not understand and may not feel comfortable asking on a forum...

Essentially, Asian Handicap eliminates the possibility of the Draw. In Fixed Odds, you would make a bet on three possible outcomes, Home, Away or Draw. Asian Handicap allows you to bet on a 50/50 proposition - just pick one of the 2 sides in a match.

Whilst betting on one of just 2 outcomes makes things simpler, another reason why Asian Handicap is enjoying increasing popularity all over the world is because most of the betting public bet on favourites and Asian Handicap makes it much more enjoyable to do so.

Firstly, you will tend to get even (or close to it) money on your bets in Asian Handicaps.
Winning 12 cents for every dollar you put on your favourite team isn't all that exciting when you bet on a Homewin with Fixed Odds (typical for say, a Man United v Derby match).

By giving the weaker team a goal handicap, the bookmaker is able to offer you better price lines when you bet favourites. This also makes the match much more enjoyable to watch when there are goalfests and your team is winning you money on Asian odds.

Of course, there are times that even when your team wins the match by one goal, you still lose your bet, as the goal handicap given to the other team is more than 1 goal. Conversely, you can bet on the weaker team, which might lose by a goal, and still win the bet.

Asian Handicap is best explained through an example and the first and simplest Asian Handicap we should look at is the 1/2-goal (sometimes called half-ball in Asia) handicap.

Well said bake, I&#x27;ll go more into European Handicap for you:It&#x27;s essentially a hybrid of 3-way and Asian. If the line is -1, then there are three options to take, the favorite at -1, the draw -1, or the dog at &#x2B;1. If the favorite wins by 2&#x2B; then the favorite would win, if they win by exactly 1 then the draw would win, and if they draw or the dog wins then the dog bet would win. In essence, European Handicap is 3-way betting but moving the "true zero", if you will, to a win margin to make the sides even.
