Little help understanding soccer line

ab1183 · 09-06-11, 10:02 AM

I know its a stupid question but I am asking because I made a 150 bet, which I thought was supposed to payout 150 + 211.5. Instead it payed 150+ 105.76. Can anyone explain why that might be?

100 wins 141

What was the Total in the end ?

If it's 4 then it's a Half win.

+3.75 and 4 goals is a half win.

5 Goals would have given you 211.5

Bodog support is saying something about an asian handicap. The bets I made said nothing about an asian handicap. Is this something that is just always understood or do they need to indicate there is a handicap?

Yes it's an Asian total (+3.75) so it pays you Half of a Win if the total was Four goals at Full time.

The ending total was 4. So basically its a half win half push? I get my entire bet back and win half the amount I could have won?

Yes. If they had scored 3 goals it would be a loss. 4 is a Half win/Half push. 5 Goals is a Win.

If the line was Over 3.5 goals then it would be a Win.

Thank you for all your help. One last question, if you dont mind. When a looking at an over under and the line is 3.25, 3.5, 3.75, etc. How do I know if the handicap is .25, .5, or .75?

Thy should just list it as 3.25, 3.5, or 3.75. A lot of times, books will list 3.25 as 3, 3.5. Which means you lose half and push half if the score is 3. 2 is a full loss and 4 is a full win.
