Under And Over In Betting Rating: 3,7/5 4193 votes

In sports betting, there are just a few bets that are considered to be regular bets and the over/under is one of them. The over/under is a simple wager where the bettor decides whether. Over/Under 1 is easy to understand. You’re betting that there will be more or less than 1 goals in the game. Imagine you bet Under 1.0 goals.

(updated on March 26, 2017)

Most bookies offer 3 choices of total goals: 1.5, 2.5 and 3.5. But some offer a wider range of options, like 2, 2.25, 2.75, 3, 3.75 and so on, that are a bit harder to understand and that confuses a lot a people.

Total Goal Over 2

You win the bet if more than 2 goals are scored and lose it if only 1 or none goal is scored. If exactly 2 goals are scored the bet is refunded.

Examples:

0-0, 1-0 or 0-1: Lose

Betting

1-1, 2-0 or 0-2: Push (bet is refunded)

2-1, 1-2, 2-2 or any other higher score: Win

Total Goal Over 2.25

In this case, you are placing half a bet on over 2.0 and the other half on 2.5. If the total goal of the match is 2 goals, you lose half your original bet (the other half is a push). If the total is more than 2 goals you win the bet, and if it’s less than 2 goals you lose the bet.

Note: sometimes you’ll see O2,2½ which is the same as O2.25!


Examples:

0-0, 1-0 or 0-1: Lose

1-1, 2-0 or 0-2: Lose half your original bet

2-1, 1-2, 2-2 or any other higher score: Win

Total Goal Over 2.5

In this case, there is no push option because a game cannot end with a total of 2.5 goals. It’s simple: you win if the total is 3 or more goals and you lose if less than 3 goals are scored.

0-0, 1-0, 0-1, 1-1, 2-0 or 0-2: Lose

2-1, 1-2, 2-2, 3-0, 0-3 or any other higher score: Win
