In ice hockey, the bets are accepted on the regular time of the match, except for the market “Match winner”, during the calculation of which the result registered in overtime or penalty shootout is also taken into account. The results registered in overtime and penalty shootout are not taken into account during the calculation of the bets made on the outcomes offered for regular time.
The match, which has been interrupted and has not been continued or finished in 24 hours, is considered to be completed if it was played for not less than 50 minutes. In the other cases, the event is considered to be not completed. The bets on “Match Winner” are subject to calculation with the odds “1” (one) if the match has been interrupted with the tied score and is considered to be completed. If the match has been interrupted and is considered to be not completed, the bets, the outcomes of which have been already determined at the time of interruption and do not depend on the final result of the match, are subject to calculation, and all the other bets are calculated with the odds “1” (one).
Result: it is offered to predict, which team will be the match-winner. The following betting options are available:
- Win 1: victory of team 1
- Win 2: victory of team 2
- X: the match ends in a draw
Match winner (including OT and shootouts): it is offered to predict the match-winner with overtime and shootouts taken into account. Overtime is appointed if the score is tied at the end of three periods. In case the tie is not broken after overtime, penalty shots are appointed. The following betting options are available:
- Match winner (including OT and shootouts): win1 –team 1will be the winner of the match with overtime and shootouts taken into account
- Match winner (including OT and shootouts): win2 –team 2 will be the winner of the match with overtime and shootouts taken into account
Double chance: it is offered to predict two match outcomes simultaneously, and if one of the outcomes is predicted correctly, the bet will be calculated as won. The following betting options are available:
- 1X: the match ends with either team 1 victory or a draw
- 12: the match ends with victory of either team 1 or team 2
- X2: the match ends with either victory of team 2 or a draw
The example
If the match ends with the score 2:2, the bets 1X and X2 will be won, and the bet 12 will be lost.
Handicap: handicap is the advantage or disadvantage in goals, which is attributed to a team. The team, on which the bet is placed, must turn the winner of the match after the handicap adjustments are performed.
Positive Handicap: in this handicap type, the team, on which the bet is placed, must become the winner of the match after the advantage of goals, the number of which is defined as the handicap argument, is added to the team’s final score.
The example
The bet Handicap 2 (2). The bet is placed on team 2, and (2) is the handicap argument. For this bet to be won, team 2 must become the winner of the match after we add the advantage of 2 goals to its final score. Let us review three possible outcomes of this bet:
- The match ended with the score 2:1. When we add the advantage of 2 goals to the final score of team 2, the score becomes 2:3. In this case, the bet is won, as after the adjustment of handicap advantage team 2 is the winner of the match.
- The match ended with the score 3:0. When we add the advantage of 2 goals to the final score of team 2, the score becomes 3:2. In this case, the bet is lost, as after the adjustment of handicap advantage team 2 is not the winner of the match.
- The match ended with the score 2:0. When we add the advantage of 2 goals to the final score of team 2, the score becomes 2:2. In this case, the bet is refunded, as after the adjustments of handicap advantage the score becomes a draw.
Negative Handicap: in this handicap type, the team, on which the bet is placed, must turn the winner of the match after the number of goal defined by the value of handicap argument is subtracted from the team’s final score.
The example
The bet Handicap 1(-2): The bet is placed for team 1, and (-2) is the handicap argument. For the bet to be won, team 1 must be the winner of the match after we subtract 2 goals from its final score. Let us review the possible outcomes of this bet:
- The match ended with the score 4:1. When we subtract 2 goals from the final score of team 1, the score becomes 2:1. In this case, the bet is won, as after the handicap adjustments team 1 is still the winner of the match.
- The match ended with the score 2:1. When we subtract 2 goals from the final score of team 1, the score becomes 0:1. In this case, the bet is lost, as after the handicap adjustments team 1 is not the winner of the match any more.
- The match ended with the score 4:2. When we subtract 2 goals from the final score of team 1, the score becomes 2:2. In this case, the bet is refunded, as after the handicap adjustments the score becomes a draw.
Asian (Double) Handicap: in this bet type, the value of handicap argument is the number, which is the multiple of 0.25 (which means that it can be divided by 0.25 without a remainder). For example, 0.25; 1.25; 1.75 etc. When you place Asian Handicap bet, your bet amount is automatically divided into two equal bets with the same odds, however, with two different bet arguments. Here, the argument of one bet will be the number, which is received, when we add 0.25 to the general argument value. The argument of the other bet will be the number, which is received after we subtract 0.25 from the argument value.
The example
The bet is Handicap 2 (1.75) with the odds 3.The bet is placed for team 2, and “1.75” is the bet argument here. Let us suppose that the bet amount was 100; it means that the bet is divided into two bets:
Handicap 2 (1.5), with the bet amount 50 and the odds 3 (the bet argument here: 1.75-0.25)
Handicap 2 (2), with the bet amount 50 and the odds 3 (the bet argument here 1.75+0.25)
Therefore, we received two ordinary handicap bets, and the calculation will be performed on the outcomes of these two bets. Let us now review the possible calculation options of this bet:
- The bet Handicap 2 (1.75) is completely won. It means that two bets: Handicap 2 (1.5) and Handicap 2 (2) will be won. In order to calculate winning amount, the general bet amount is multiplied by the bet odd. The bet amount is 100, and the odds is 3. Therefore, the won amount is 100×3=300.
- The bet Handicap 2 (1.75) is completely lost. It means that two bets: Handicap 2 (1.5) and Handicap 2 (2) will be lost. For instance, with the score 3:0, both bets will be lost.
- The bet Handicap 2 (1.75) is partially lost and partially refunded. It means that one of the bets will be lost, and the other one will be refunded. For instance, with the score 2:0, the bet Handicap 2(2) will be refunded and the bet Handicap 2 (1.5) will be lost. In this case, the refunded amount will be equal to the half of general bet amount. The general bet amount is 100, so the refunded amount will be 50.
Now, let us review the example of Asian handicap bet, which is calculated as partially won and partially refunded:
The bet Handicap 2 (0.25) with the odds 2, and the bet amount of 200. The bet is placed for team 2 and “0.25” is the bet argument. It means that the bet is divided into two bets:
Handicap 2 (0.5), with the bet amount of 100 and the odds 2 (the bet argument here: 0.25+0.25)
Handicap 2(0), with the bet amount of 100 and the odds 2 (the bet argument here: 0.25-0.25)
Let us suppose that the match ended with the score 0-0. Then, this bet will be calculated as partially won and partially refunded. It means that one of the bets is settled as won, and the other as refunded. In this case, the bet: Handicap 2 (0.5) will be settled as won, and the bet Handicap 2 (0) will be settled as refunded. The winning amount is calculated according to the following formula:
bet amount × (odds+1)÷2
Thus, if we calculate the bet amount, it will be 200 × (2+1) ÷2=300.Total Over/Under
Total Over/Under: it is offered to predict if the total number of scored goals will be over or under the selected value of bet argument:
Total Over: the number of goals must exceed the selected value of bet argument. In case the total number of goals and value the bet argument coincide, the bet is refunded.
The example
The bet Total over (3). In this bet, “3” is the bet argument. Therefore, for the bet to be won, the total number of goals scored in the match must be over 6. In case the total number of goals equals to 6, the bet will be refunded.
Total Under: the number of goals must be lower than the selected value of bet argument. In case the total number of goals and value the bet argument coincide, the bet is refunded.
The example:
The bet Total under (6). In this bet, “6” is the bet argument. Therefore, for the bet to be won, the total number of goals scored in the match must be lower than 6. In case the total number of goals equals to 6, the bet will be refunded.European (Imaginary) handicap
European (Imaginary) handicap: the bet for European handicap presupposes that two teams will be given a certain advantage of scores before the start of the game. The team, on which the bet is placed, must become the winner of the match after the handicap adjustments of both teams are made.
The example
The bet Win 1: European Handicap (2:1).It means that we must add two points to the result of team 1 and we must add one point to the final result of team 2. For the bet to be won, after the performed adjustments, team 1 must be the winner of the match. Let us suppose, that the match ended with the score 3:3, when we adjust the handicap points the score becomes 5:4. Thus, the bet is won, as after we adjusted the handicap points, team 1 is the winner of the match.1-st Goal
