    Question of Handicap

    Hi guys
    I am new to football betting , can any pro explain what is the different in the standard Handicap with
    "handicap draw" options available ? This is what Paddy power offers...

    If I take the weaker team at Plus 1 goal and if the game ended is 2-1.... do I lose the bet...?

    and how is this different from Asian Handicap ?

    Would appreciate anyone would could explain ?

    Thanks In advance.

    European Handicap mean f.e.: Team A vs Team B. Team B +1 (EHC). Team A wins 1:0, you lose. 1:1 you win. 0:1 you win.

    Asian Handicap: Team A vs Team B. Team B +1 (AHC) Team A wins 1:0, you push (cashback). 1:1 you win. 0:1 you win.

    EHC=bigger odd=bigger risk.
    AHC=lower odd= lower risk.

    Forgot something:

    There are half asian handicaps, too. For example: +1.25

    That means: Half of your stake goes on +1 and the other half on +1.5

    So in the example above: Team A vs Team B. Team B +1.25(AHC) ---> Team A wins 1:0, half of your bet cashback and half won, 0:0 full won, 0:1 full won, 2:0 full lost

    +1.75 would be: half of your stack on +1.5 and the other half on +2 ---> Team A wins 1:0, won. Team a wins 2:0, half lost halb cashback. 0:0, won. 0:1, won.
