Two Basic Betting Concepts—Explained Simply
- What Are Odds?
-
Odds are a number indicating how much you will receive per 1 BDT bet if the outcome occurs. For example: odds of 2.50 mean a 100 BDT bet returns 250 BDT total (including profit of 150 BDT). Higher odds mean lower probability but higher payout.
- What Is Handicap Betting?
-
Handicap is a way to balance the strength difference between two teams. For example, if Bangladesh vs Zimbabwe match gives Bangladesh a -1.5 run handicap, Bangladesh must win by more than 1 run. This makes odds for both teams nearly equal and makes betting more interesting.
