    Soccer Line Question
    1X2 Handicap 1 hcp X 2 +1.0
    2.20 3.80 -1.0
    2.60I'm taking team 2.

    If my team wins my 1 goal, it's a push, right? If they win by 2 or more, I win, right? If they lose, or tie, then I lose, right?

    I've never played this Asian handicap before. What's the benefit of betting team 1 here if there's a hcp X (draw I'm assuming), since the +1.0 doesn't payout on a draw since there's a separate draw bet for that.

    Can someone explain this to me?

    That didn't come out too clear, should look like this:

    1X2 Handicap

    1: +1.0, 2.20
    X: 3.80
    2: -1.0, 2.60

      1X2 means it's a 3 way (or European) handicap. In this example you would lose if team 2 won by one goal because the outcome of the match including the handicap would've been X or draw.

      Had this been a 2 way (or Asian) handicap (only possible bets would be 1 & 2) you would've gotten a push.
