The Asian line is exclusive for soccer betting, and you can bet on handicaps or totals.
The Asian line gives you two chances to bet in one (two lines + a single odd). The risked amount and total winnings are divided into two bets with equal amounts.
Asian lines will always show two values with a half-point difference, generating a double chance for the player to cover what is wagered in the event of a tie or push in one of the lines.
Take, for example, the following line:
If we bet $100 to win $110, choosing a line of over 2.5 and over 3, the bet is divided as follows:
| Line | Over 2.5 | Over3 |
| Bet | Risk $50 / Win $55 | Risk $50 / Win $55 |
If the score is 3 to 0, then the result of your bet will be:
| Line | Over 2.5 | Over 3 |
| Bet result | Winner | Tie or push |
| Win / Loss | The risked amount + the profit are reinstated | Only the risked amount is reinstated |
Advantages of the Asian line
- More attractive prices.
- Double chance of winning.
- Double chance to cover the risky amount on each bet.
