A handicap bet is a type of bet where one team or player is given a virtual advantage or disadvantage (in the form of goals or points).
This helps to balance the odds and make the game more dynamic.
Possible outcomes:
If your team wins after applying the handicap — the bet is won.
If the result after applying the handicap is a draw — it’s a refund (odds = 1).
If the opponent wins after applying the handicap — the bet is lost.
Examples:
Bet 50 ₺ on Manchester United to win with a handicap of +2.
Final score: 2–2 → with handicap: 4–2 → win.
Payout: 50 ₺ × 2.5 = 125 ₺The same bet (50 ₺) with handicap +2, score 2–4 → with handicap: 4–4 → refund.
Payout: 50 ₺ × 1 = 50 ₺The same bet (50 ₺) with handicap +1, score 2–4 → with handicap: 3–4 → loss.
Payout: 0 ₺
