Why Asian Handicap? Lines like +0.0 (Draw No Bet), +0.25, +0.5 can reduce variance by refunding or half‑winning on draws. Great for beginners seeking controlled swings.

Core lines

  • +0.0 (AH 0 / DNB): win if your team wins, refund if draw.
  • +0.25: half your stake on +0.0, half on +0.5; draw returns half stake, the +0.5 half wins.
  • +0.5: you win unless your team loses.

How to use

  1. Build a fair price on 1X2 (or via a model).
  2. Map to AH probabilities (or use market conversion, then seek an overlay).
  3. Prefer underdogs where you believe the market underrates them defensively.

Risk controls

  • Singles only. Avoid combining multiple AH legs.
  • Track whether your edges appear before team news; if your edge vanishes at close, reassess.
