    Noob Question

    Hi All,
    Excuse my dumb question. But what does it mean if I place a bet on soccer and it says:

    1417 Wexford Youths (IRE-Cup) -1,-1½ -109* vs Cobh Ramblers (IRE-Cup)

    Is the spread -1 or -1.5? Thank you.

    It's called an Asian Handicap bet.

    Half your bet is on -1 and half on -1.5

    For example if Wexford win 1-0 you lose half and push half so get half your money back.
