Asian Handicaps

Asian Handicaps

This type of bet originated in Asia, as the name implies, where punters prefer betting odds to be as close to evens as possible.

Asian Handicaps may seem complicated at first but they are not at all. They are simply a method of handicapping teams to make the match seem more even. It is generally thought that they are priced up far more competitively and are considered the best value method of backing a team.

Below is a table which shows what each handicap mark represents,
Payouts

Win - You win your stake multiplied by the price.
Win half - You win half your stake multiplied by the price. Half your stake is returned.
No bet - The bet is void. Your stake is returned.
Lose half - You lose half your stake. Half is returned.
Lose - You lose your stake.
