Handicap Home +60.75

Handicap Home +60.75 indicates that the home team starts the game with a virtual lead of 60.75 points.

It means for the bet to win, the home team must win, draw, or lose by fewer than 60 points.

In the scenario of a bet size of $100 and odds of 1.95, let’s explore different outcomes of the bet.

Win

• Home team wins, draws, or loses by fewer than 60 points. When the bet wins, it means the home team performed better than anticipated, securing victory, a draw, or losing by a margin narrower than 60 points, resulting in a successful outcome for the bettor.
• Possible outcomes: 74:58, 63:63, 100:112.
• Payout = $50 * 1.95 (odds for 60.5 points) + $50 * 1.95 (odds for 61 points) = $97.5 + $97.5 = $195.

Half Lose

• Home team loses by exactly 61 points. In the event of a half loss, the home team narrowly misses meeting the handicap, resulting in a loss for the bettor, but the margin is within the specified range, hence the term ‘half lose’.
• Possible outcomes: 23:84, 76:137, 40:101.
• Payout = $50 * 0 (odds for 60.5 points) + $50 * 1 (odds for 61 points) = $50.

Lose

• Home team loses by 62 or more points. When the bet loses, it means the home team underperformed significantly, failing to meet the handicap and losing by a margin exceeding 60 points, resulting in a loss for the bettor.
• Possible outcomes: 22:107, 13:95, 54:137.
• Payout = $50 * 0 (odds for 60.5 points) + $50 * 0 (odds for 61 points) = $0.
