Sports Betting | Bet on EPL, PBA, NBA and Other Sports Matches
Many Filipinos absolutely love sports with some of the most popular sports in the country arguably being the following in order:
While the order is still debatable, the fact that sports is popular in the Philippines. Many Filipino fans and gamblers will participate in sports betting in different sportsbooks, including PHDream’s United Gaming and BTI sportsbooks.
Different Sports Bets
When Filipino bettors want to bet on sports in PHDream, they’ll pick from the two sportsbooks powering the platform’s sports betting options. After picking one, they’ll be able to bet on sports events with either live or early odds being displayed to the bettor first. The different bets in addition to early and live are the following:
Early Sports Betting
Early betting is the sports bet that typically features the greatest number of betting markets as the match hasn’t occurred yet and certain outcomes can still be wagered on. Early sports bets are pretty safe bets not only because of the large number of betting markets available but also because the odds are fairly clear on which outcome is more likely to occur and the odds aren’t likely to change so suddenly.
Live Sports Betting
Live sports betting is a popular betting option for a lot of different high roller sports bettors who want to maximize their winnings by taking advantage of high odds on outcomes they think will occur before the sportsbook can adjust the odds. While the betting markets here are more limited, bettors can take advantage of the changing odds and even watch live matches on different channels to get real-time information on how a match is going on and make informed bets accordingly.
Live betting is preferred by a lot of hardcore bettors or sports fans who want to get in the heat of the betting scene to either take full advantage of certain odds or to even be able to “show their support” by betting live.
Outright Betting
Betting outright is difficult to win in, especially since bettors will mostly be betting on outcomes that won’t occur until many months later, unless when betting on a league outcome so late into the league. Outright betting is basically betting on a future outcome with the odds tending to be higher the earlier the bettor is betting in the league and the most common bet available being league winner. The other bets are the following:
Sports fans can stubbornly place bets on their teams even when they aren’t the clear favorites and have a decent chance. One example is when a bettor bet on Leicester City winning the English Premier League in the 2015-2016 season and won £108,703.41 from a £20 bet with odds of 5001 after cashing out early.
Parlay Betting
Parlays are another hard-to-win in betting option which is arguably harder than outright betting. In parlays, a bet sets up a multi-let accumulator or parlay consisting of at least two bets up to how many a bettor is confident on betting on. The shorter the leg, the higher the chances of winning. The longer the leg, the riskier the bet becomes as a single lost bet results in forfeiting the entire parlay.
Some of the biggest winners include turning $5 into $100,005 with a 15-leg parlay and a £500,000 win from a 30p bet on a 15-leg parlay.
Different Sports Betting Markets
Sports bettors will have access to several betting markets, including the following:
1X2/Moneyline
1X2 or moneyline is a fairly standard sports betting market where bettors guess which team or athlete will win a match. 1X2 is also known as three-way moneyline while “moneyline” is much more known as two-way moneyline. What moneyline bet is available depends on the sport as sports that can end In a draw typically feature the 1X2 market while those that can never end in a draw only have two-way moneyline.
Double Chance
Double Chance is a betting market that’s similar to moneyline mainly because both markets focus on the match’s winner, except that Double Chance allows bettors to bet on who outcomes. The different outcomes they can bet on are the following:
This bet is extremely easy to win in which makes it perfect for parlays.
Over/Under
Over/Under is a goal-based betting market where bettors must guess how many goals will be scored in a match. Bettors don’t need to bet on the exact score as the only goal is to bet whether the match will end over or under a certain threshold.
The different thresholds available are the following:
When the threshold is a whole number, the bet pushes when the game ends on said threshold. A bet on Over 3 pushes when a match ends on a 3.
Odd/Even
Odd/Even is another goal/based betting market where the goal is to guess whether a match will end with an even or odd score. This essentially has a 50/50 chance of winning as both low scoring games and high scoring games can end either way.
