Sebagai platform taruhan olahraga daring yang populer, menawarkan berbagai jenis pasaran bola (odds) untuk setiap pertandingan. Memahami pasaran ini penting bagi siapa saja yang ingin memasang taruhan. Berikut adalah beberapa pasaran bola SBOBET yang umum ditemui:

Jenis Pasaran Bola SBOBET yang Populer di Situs Asiabetking:

  • Handicap (HDP): Pasaran ini memberikan keuntungan atau kerugian gol virtual kepada salah satu tim sebelum pertandingan dimulai. Tujuannya adalah untuk menyeimbangkan peluang antara tim yang lebih kuat dan tim yang lebih lemah. Beberapa jenis handicap yang umum adalah:

    • 0 (Bola Jalan/Draw No Bet): Jika pertandingan berakhir seri, taruhan dibatalkan.
    • 0.25 (Voor ¼): Tim yang memberikan voor harus menang dengan selisih minimal 1 gol agar taruhan pada tim tersebut menang penuh. Jika seri, yang memasang pada tim yang memberi voor kalah setengah, dan yang memasang pada tim yang menerima voor menang setengah.
    • 0.50 (Voor ½): Tim yang memberikan voor harus menang dengan selisih minimal 1 gol agar taruhan pada tim tersebut menang. Jika seri atau tim yang menerima voor menang, taruhan pada tim yang memberi voor kalah.
    • 0.75 (Voor ¾): Tim yang memberikan voor harus menang dengan selisih minimal 2 gol agar taruhan pada tim tersebut menang penuh. Jika menang dengan selisih 1 gol, yang memasang pada tim yang memberi voor menang setengah, dan yang memasang pada tim yang menerima voor kalah setengah.
    • 1 (Voor 1): Tim yang memberikan voor harus menang dengan selisih minimal 2 gol agar taruhan pada tim tersebut menang. Jika menang dengan selisih 1 gol, taruhan seri (dana kembali).
  • Over/Under (O/U): Pasaran ini memungkinkan Anda bertaruh pada total jumlah gol yang dicetak dalam suatu pertandingan, apakah akan lebih (Over) atau kurang (Under) dari angka yang ditentukan oleh SBOBET.

  • 1X2: Pasaran paling sederhana, di mana Anda bertaruh pada hasil akhir pertandingan:

    • 1: Tuan rumah menang.
    • X: Seri.
    • 2: Tim tamu menang.
  • Correct Score (CS): Anda bertaruh pada skor akhir yang tepat dari pertandingan. Pasaran ini memiliki odds yang lebih tinggi karena sulit diprediksi.

  • Half Time/Full Time (HT/FT): Anda bertaruh pada hasil babak pertama dan hasil akhir pertandingan secara bersamaan. Kombinasi yang mungkin adalah 1/1, 1/X, 1/2, X/1, X/X, X/2, 2/1, 2/X, 2/2.

  • Mix Parlay: Anda menggabungkan beberapa pilihan taruhan dari pertandingan yang berbeda ke dalam satu taruhan. Agar menang, semua pilihan dalam parlay harus benar. Keuntungannya adalah potensi kemenangan yang lebih besar karena odds dari setiap pilihan akan dikalikan.

  • Odd/Even (O/E): Anda bertaruh apakah total jumlah gol dalam pertandingan akan ganjil (Odd) atau genap (Even).

  • First Goal/Last Goal (FG/LG): Anda bertaruh tim mana yang akan mencetak gol pertama atau gol terakhir dalam pertandingan.

Cara Membaca Pasaran SBOBET:

  • Tim yang Memberikan Voor: Biasanya ditulis dengan warna merah atau berada di bagian atas dalam daftar pasaran Handicap.
  • Nilai Voor: Angka di samping nama tim menunjukkan besaran voor yang diberikan.
  • Odds (Kei): Angka yang tertera di samping pilihan taruhan menunjukkan odds atau kei.
    • Odds Hitam (Positif): Jika Anda menang, Anda akan dibayar sesuai dengan taruhan Anda dikalikan dengan odds. Contoh: Taruhan Rp 100.000 dengan odds 1.70, jika menang akan mendapatkan Rp 170.000 (termasuk modal).
    • Odds Merah (Negatif): Jika Anda menang, Anda akan dibayar sesuai dengan taruhan Anda dibagi dengan nilai absolut odds. Jika kalah, Anda akan membayar sesuai dengan taruhan Anda dikalikan dengan nilai absolut odds dikurangi 1. Contoh: Taruhan Rp 100.000 dengan odds -1.10, jika menang akan mendapatkan Rp 100.000 / 1.10 = Rp 90.90 (belum termasuk modal). Jika kalah, Anda membayar Rp 100.000 * 1.10 = Rp 110.000.
