Asian Handicaps and betting

Thursday, February 21st, 2008

Last night we had Arsenal/ Man U double.  A straight ton at 7/2.  Both draw so £100 loss.  Our good run has come to an end.  Bank now down to +£159. 

We did consider an Asian Handicap double which would have got us some money back as both were -0.25.  On the issue of Asian Handicaps, its proper term for a type of bet.  Our friend Scott Bradder, thought it was something to do with me being Asian and it was a little in joke with Pod.  You can read about them here  Basically, they make every match a 50/50 by giving 1 team a head start.
