ASIAN HANDICAP
of success is same as in fixed odds betting. The Asian handicap is adjusted from bookies more frequently than fixed odds, thereby charging the gamblers more vigorish for the more probable out-
come and reaching more quickly the break-even situation. When the break-even situation is reached, a gambler always has equal 50-50 chances of winning like playing a pure game of luck. As a result, on the long run, the person who places the bet, will lose out by paying commissions to the bookies. A professional Asian handicap gambler must therefore place the bets early before the advantages are evened out by adjustment of odds, but by doing so sometimes the gambler inevitably gains and analyzes less information of the match.
Football is one of the few sports in the world where a tie is a fairly common outcome. With traditional fixed odds, ties are treated as an additional out- come to the game. In other words, bettors lose when they place a wager on either team to win and the game ties. With Asian Handicaps, however, the chance for a tie is eliminated by use of a handicap that forces a winner. This creates a situation where each team has a 50-50 chance of winning; similar to the odds for a basketball or baseball game where a tie is impossible.
This system works in a straight-forward manner. The target of the book- maker is to create a handicap or "line" that will make the chance of either team winning (considering the handicap) as close to 50% as possible. Since the odds are as close to 50% as possible, bookies offer payouts close to even money, or 1.90 to 2.00. Asian Handicaps start at a quarter goal and could go as high
as 2.5 or 3 goals in matches with a huge disparity in ability. What makes Asian Handicaps most interesting is the use of quarter goals to get the "line" as close as possible. Taken in conjunction with the posted total for the game, the handicap essentially predicts the game's final score. Take please a look at this example:
Our example match is:
Borussia Dortmund vs Bayer Leverkusen
Handicap: 0 : 1,5
This handicap states that Dortmund is "giving" Leverkusen one and a half goal advance for the match. What this means is that Leverkusen is starting the game with an imaginary leading of 1,5 to 0. The final result of this match was 2-1 to Dortmund. So in the final of the bet, Leverkusen wins with the final score of 2,5 - 2.
Subsequently, many matches are handicapped in ½ and ¼ intervals; both of which eliminate the possibility of a tie since no one can score a half-goal. Handicaps with a quarter split the bet between the two next closest ¼ intervals. For instance, a $1000 bet with a handicap of 1 ¾ is the same as betting $500 at 1 ½ and $500 at 2. With ¼ handicap bets, you can win and also tie (win ½ of wager) or lose and tie (lose ½ wager). The ¼-goal handicap may be expressed by some bookmakers as "0 and ½".
