Q

When to back or lay on the exchange market?

A

We place a LAY bet when we think that the odds are too low and the possibility of the result is higher. We place a BACK bet when we think that the odds are too high, and then they will fall when other players and bookmakers realize that the odds should be lowered.

Example Man City to win is evens, but we actually think its a 60% chance they win (1.67), we therefore want to back the bet

This can be later hedged by laying if odds changed

Newcastle to not to win is available as a lay bet of evens, but we actually think its a 40% chance (2.5) that they win, we therefore want to lay the bet

This can be later hedged by backing the bet

Q

Lay betting explained?

A

Placing £10 on a 5/1 shot will win you a profit of £50. Straightforward.In effect, the formula is reversed when it comes to laying.To make a profit of £10, the layer would have to be willing to risk £50

So you basically are saying to someone else, I’ll take your bet on, ill act as the bookmaker and choosing what there stake is

Q

How does Asian Handicap work?

A

So lets say its evens for Man City - 2 goals

If they win by 3 bet wins, if they win by 2 bet is pushed, by 1, draw or lose, stake is lost. Winnings are multiplied by evens

Lets say its 10/1 Cambridge united +0.75, that means half our stake is on 0.5 and half is on 1. If they win or draw we at 10/1, if they lose by 1 goal, we lose half the stake, and push the other half, anything else we lose the bet

Lets say Liverpool is -0.25 at 5/1, so half our stake is on 0, half is on 0.5. If they win we win the bet, if they draw we push half and lose half

if is 1.75, half the stake is on 1.5, half is on 2

If is 0.5, can never push will always be win or lose

17
Q

What is spread betting

A

Eg. how many goals in a football match

However if was 0-0 you would lose £30
