The Asian handicap is a form of bet where one team gets a virtual projection with respect to the other team. This can be a projection of 1/2 aim points, 1/4 aim points, 3/4 aim points, 1 aim point, 1 1/4 aim points, etc. When you bet using the Asian handicap, the possibility of a draw has been excluded. Only the home team or best finishing team can win the game. If the game finishes in a draw, your bet, or half of it will be recovered. Here however an exception is possible, which we will return to later in this explanation.

In contrast to the ordinary "head-to-head" bet is the Asian handicap a much better bet mainly because of the fact that you recover your bet (or half of it, depending on of the type of handicap) if the result is a draw. With a head-to-head bet you would lose if you bet on something else then the effective result. Moreover the Asian handicap also offers much more excitement, since one only target point can be the difference between profit or loss. Generally, this raises the mathematical chances on a single bet of 33.3% (head-to-head bet) of winning, to 50%. (Asian handicap, depending on of the type of handicap)

The calculation table below allows the outcomes of the Asian handicap bet to be seen with respect to the different types of Asian handicap bet. The table shows bets, the possible results and the profit percentage for that particular bet. You can see that you recover half of your commitment or lose half of your commitment depending on the type of asian handicap (1/4, 3/4, 1 1/4). In the case of a "straight handicap", (0:0, 0:1, or 1:0) the result of the bet is a draw, then you recover your bet because at that moment there is a "no bet" situation. For 1/2-handicaps, a "no bet" situation does not exist. One of the teams always wins, irrespective of the definite final result.
