What is Asian Handicap Odds?
Asian Handicap Odds Betting, as the name implies originates from Asia by bookmakers,
or more popularly known as "bookies" who offer a better chance of winning
than conventional fixed odds (1X2) betting. The popularity of this form of betting
which has started in Asia has spread to the West, especially in the UK, with many
online bookmakers catering for this type of betting odds.
Asian Handicaps Odds Betting vs Fixed Odds Betting
With Asian Handicap Odds Betting (also called "Hang Cheng"), it eliminates
the possibility of a draw result. The perceived weaker team will get a handicap
from the bookies to balance the odds so that is an equal probability for each team
to win the game. There will be only two outcomes for the bet, "home win"
or "away win". "Handicaps" means that a perceived weaker team
has received a virtual head start, effectively leading the game with 0/0.5 goal,
0.5 goal, 0.5/1 goal, 1 goal, 1/1.5 goal, etc.
Advantages of Asian Handicap Odds Betting
You eliminate the possibility of a draw result, increasing your main winning chance
from 33.3% to 50% in a single game. Depending on the handicaps you can win your
bet even if the team you bet on don't win the game. You can bet on a team you believe
will lose the game, but because of a big handicaps you can still win the bet. Typical
here is when the favourite team wins the game with only one goal. When following
a live match on TV, tension is always very high since a single goal can take you
from losing to winning (or the other way around). If you place multiple bets (accumulator),
the number of possible outcomes is much less than in fixed odds (home/draw/away
bets. Example for a treble bet, where all 3 selections must be correct). The number
of outcomes is 2 x 2 x 2 = 8. With fixed odds betting the number of outcomes is
3 x 3 x 3 = 27.
