Question on betting soccer.

[demens]

My book doesn;t have this option so i'm wondering if others do.

Talking about a bet on a team NOT to lose, meaning a win OR a tie. SInce soccer is one of the few sports where a tie happens pretty often. I remember back when living in europe people that bet talked about having that as an option, so do online books offer this?

Double chance, Handicap (european, asian), Lay on Betfair.

It all exists.

All European books offer this type of bet(double chance). But it is nothing different than dutching the prices of the two outcomes you want to bet on.
Example: Man united 2.00 - Draw 3.00 - Liverpool 3.00
If you want to bet on Liverpool and the draw with a total stake of 100$ you will split the stake: 50$ on the draw and 50$ on Liverpool. If any of this bets win you will get 150$ back. So you risk 100$ to win 150$.
This is what european books do. They offer the double chance(Liverpool win or draw) at odds 1.50( or less !!!).
Splitting the stakes on the above example is easy but when it is more difficult i use this site http://www.betcalc.com/eqprofitcalc.php
So all you need is a book offering 1X2 odds.

I believe that team not to loose would have worse odds than the ones I mentioned above.

Not sure it helps but at Matchbook for soccer they offer each team with a 'win' or 'lose' price and a tie option with a 'will there be a tie' or 'no tie' price. I don't play soccer that much Matchbook but at least your not laying heavy juice like at most sportsbooks for soccer bets. Good luck.
