Handicaps and special lines

European and Asian handicaps, totals lines, corners and cards, and converting markets from 1X2 prices.

What you will learn

  • Tell the three-way European handicap from the Asian one and know how each settles.
  • Work out the exact profit or loss on lines like 2.75 and 3.
  • See why a high corners average does not make the Over safe.
  • Derive Draw No Bet and double chance from 1X2 prices and check they are consistent.
