1 1 Meaning In Betting
(updated on March 26, 2017)
Most bookies offer 3 choices of total goals: 1.5, 2.5 and 3.5. But some offer a wider range of options, like 2, 2.25, 2.75, 3, 3.75 and so on, that are a bit harder to understand and that confuses a lot a people.
The meaning of 1 in betting should be straight forward if you have basic knowledge of sports. 1 represents a win for the team that will be playing at home. What does 2 mean in betting? 2 depicts a win for the team playing away from home. For instance, fist-half score is 1-2. Apparently, TO 1 is going to win as 1+2=3 (31) 2) Teams score no goals in the second half: If the game ends with a draw, TU 1 wins (01) 3) One goal scored in the first half: So, it turns out that the score is equal to Total 1. In such a case, bookies cancel your bet or, in other words, calculate it with 1. The standard (and often implied) number is –110, meaning a successful bet of $110 would net $100 profit. This is the “juice” or “vigorish” (aka “vig”) for the house or sportsbook.
Total Goal Over 2
You win the bet if more than 2 goals are scored and lose it if only 1 or none goal is scored. If exactly 2 goals are scored the bet is refunded.
Examples:
0-0, 1-0 or 0-1: Lose
1-1, 2-0 or 0-2: Push (bet is refunded)
2-1, 1-2, 2-2 or any other higher score: Win
Total Goal Over 2.25
In this case, you are placing half a bet on over 2.0 and the other half on 2.5. If the total goal of the match is 2 goals, you lose half your original bet (the other half is a push). If the total is more than 2 goals you win the bet, and if it’s less than 2 goals you lose the bet.
Note: sometimes you’ll see O2,2½ which is the same as O2.25!
Examples:
0-0, 1-0 or 0-1: Lose
1-1, 2-0 or 0-2: Lose half your original bet
2-1, 1-2, 2-2 or any other higher score: Win
Total Goal Over 2.5
In this case, there is no push option because a game cannot end with a total of 2.5 goals. It’s simple: you win if the total is 3 or more goals and you lose if less than 3 goals are scored.
