| :-------------------------------------: | :-----------: | :---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------: |
| <p>European Odds<br>(Decimal  Odds)</p> |      2.5      |                                                                                           If you bet 1 unit, when you win the bet, you will receive a total of 2.50 units (including your original bet of 1 unit).                                                                                          |
|             Fractional Odds             |      3/2      |                                                                      This odds indicate that you bet 2 units, and if you win, you will earn a pure profit of 3 units. Additionally, you will get back your bet amount, totaling 5 units                                                                     |
|              American Odds              |  +150 or -200 |                                                                       +150 means that if you bet 100 units and win, you will earn a pure profit of 150 units. -200 means you need to bet 200 units to win a pure profit of 100 units.                                                                       |
|             Indonesian Odds             | -1.50 or 1.50 |                                    Indonesian odds are very similar to American odds, except they are divided by 100. -1.50 means you need to bet 1.50 units to win a pure profit of 1 unit. 1.50 means that if you bet 1 unit, you can win a pure profit of 1.50 units.                                    |
|              Hongkong Odds              |      1.50     |                                                                   Similar to decimal odds, but excluding the principal. If you bet 1 unit and win, you will receive a pure profit of 1.50 units, plus your principal, totaling 2.50 units.                                                                  |
|              Malaysian Odds             | -0.50 or 0.50 | This odds type is similar to Indonesian odds. The negative value indicates the units you need to bet, while the positive value shows the profit you can win. For example, -0.50 means you need to bet 0.50 units to win 1 unit; 0.50 means that by betting 1 unit, you can win a pure profit of 0.50 units. |

## **Asian Handicap**

Asian handicap betting is an option in events where a "handicap" is assigned to overcome a challenge in winning the bet. In other words, considering the displayed match score, which team is likely to win?

This is popular in heavily favored matches rather than betting on low odds.

The handicap does not take into account the target/score before placing the bet.

There are five possible outcomes: win, half win, void, lose, and half lose.

Examples are given in the following Asian handicap table:

This is popular in heavily favored matches rather than betting on low odds.
