1st Half Match Betting 3 Way Game
Matched Betting

This market is usually offered for in-play games. You should view it as: Match Total 3-way for X goals, where X can be any amount of goals like 2, 3, 4 and so on.

Let us review an example, where X = 3

A 3-way bet (often referred to as a 1×2 bet) is a type of sports bet for games with 3 potential outcomes. These outcomes are generally win, lose or draw. Or put another way: team 1, draw or team 2 (hence the bet often being referred to as “1×2”). The half goal in the options is simply to avoid the bet going to a ‘push’. A push is where a bet is neither won or lost. For example, if the option in the Goal Line market was just Over 3 and there were three goals exactly scored in the match, the bet neither wins or loses. With the half goal included, the bet will either win or lose.

You will be offered three selections:

Over 3.0 - which means your bet wins if there are 4 or more goals scored in the game. If there are 3 or less goals scored in the game, the bet is lost.

Under 3.0 - which means your bet wins if there are 2 or less goals scored in the game. If there are 3 or more goals scored, the bet is considered lost.

Exactly 3.0 - this selection means that there should be exactly 3 goals scored in the game, no more no less.

As you can see, this market is not offering any Return option, unlike usual Over/Under bet for goals scored. Please take that into the account, while making your choice.

Many inexperienced punters, or those who are new to sports betting, may find themselves looking at the available markets and asking, what is 1X2 betting?

Well, 1X2 betting is mostly popular in football and involves betting on the result in a match with three possible outcomes, which are home win, away win, and draw.

This market may also be known as Full Time Result, Match Betting, or Three-Way Bet.

How Does a 1X2 Bet Work?

If you are still confused, here’s a more detailed explanation and includes an example.

Basically, the three outcomes of a match between two teams are represented by either 1, 2, or X. This means 1 is for a home win, 2 for an away win, and X for the draw.

Using odds from Bet 365, let us use the scheduled curtain raiser for the 2017/18 Premier League season between Arsenal and Leicester as an example.

In the Full Time Result market, Arsenal are represented by the 1 as they are the home team. Leicester are the away team, so are represented by the 2, and the draw is X. Looking at the odds, you can see that Arsenal are favourites at 1.36. Leicester are the outsiders, with odds of 8.50, and the draw is priced at 4.75.

This means, using a 100 stake, that a bet on Arsenal to win would pay 136 if they’re victorious. Leicester to win is a possible return of 850, whilst the draw would pay 475 if the game finishes level.

The 1X2 bet is sometimes also available in handicap betting, as long as there’s the possibility of a draw.

Combining Two of the Three Possible Outcomes

It is possible to combine two of the three possible outcomes, using a Double Chance bet.

With this market, you can choose to bet on 1X, X2, or 12. This basically translates into home win or draw, draw or away win, and home win or away win.

By combining two outcomes, you have a bigger chance of winning your bet although it would be for lower odds than in a normal 1X2 market.

Using the match above, Arsenal v Leicester, let’s look at the difference in possible return.

1X (Arsenal or Draw) – Odds of 1.083. Possible return of 108.30 for a 100 stake

X2 (Draw or Leicester) – Odds of 3.20. Possible return of 320
