What you need to know about pseudo-ratings of bookmakers on the Internet for those who are looking for a reliable bookmaker.(if you are not interested in information about fake bookmaker ratings that can be found on the Internet, then skip and do not read further the text highlighted in color)

On bookmaker-related websites you can often find ratings of bookmakers. As a rule, they have the headings “BEST BOOKMAKERS”, “BOOKMAKERS RATTING”, “RANKING OF THE BEST BOOKMAKERS” (or something like that), followed by 5-10 small link banners indicating the name of the bookmaker and the amount of the bonus for registration by clicking on one of which the user is taken to the registration page of the selected bookmaker’s website. At the same time, it is not explained anywhere by what criteria these “ratings” were compiled and why these particular bookmakers were included in them. Or, sometimes, vague indicators appear out of thin air, for example, “reliability”, “quality of work of the support service”, etc., although it is absolutely unclear on the basis of what data these indicators were assessed... It is necessary to understand that with real This information has nothing in common with bookmaker ratings. It’s just that the site owners have agreements with one or another bookmaker to attract customers. This does not mean that these bookmakers are scammers or play unfairly, but, let’s say, the above lists and the lists in which they appear have nothing in common with the word “rating”.

Those. Owners of bookmaker-themed sites very often, for advertising purposes, call ratings (which, of course, are not) regular lists of bookmakers with which they cooperate, with referral links to registration pages.

What is total in sports betting?

Total (from the English “total” = “sum, total”) in sports betting is the number of goals scored in a sporting event (in football and hockey), points scored (in basketball and volleyball) or games played (in tennis). In addition to those listed, in bookmakers you can bet on the total on a large number of other various events, for example, on the number of corners in football, misses of one or another participant in biathlon, the number of penalty minutes in hockey, the number of plays in a game in tennis, the number of games played (in volleyball), etc. But, once again, it should be noted that in betting on football in the main line, the total is always the number of goals scored during the main time of the football match. And in the future in this post, betting on totals in football will mean betting on the number of goals.

Total bets are divided into two types:

1. Bets on total “over” (or TB) – i.e. bets placed on a match being scored more goals than the total indicated in the line.

2. Bets on total “under” (or TM) – i.e. bets placed on the fact that fewer goals will be scored in a match than the total indicated on the line.

Accordingly, with probable large quantities goals, a bet is placed on the total more, and if there is a higher probability that there will be few goals scored, then the bet is placed on the total less.

Total 0.5 in football

In the bookmaker's line 1xBet total less than 0.5 is indicated as 0.5 M, and the total is more than 0.5 – 0.5 B

Total over 0.5 (or 0.5 B, TB 0.5)

A bet on Over 0.5 wins if at least one goal is scored in the match and loses if no goals are scored in the match. Thus, if the match ends with a score of 0:0, then the TB 0.5 bet will lose. If the match ends with any other score, no matter what, the main thing is that at least one goal or more is scored, then the bet on TO 0.5 will win.

Total less than 0.5 (or 0.5 M, TM 0.5)

A bet on TM 0.5 wins if no goals are scored in the match and loses if goals are scored in the match. Thus, if the match ends with a score of 0:0, then the TM 0.5 bet will win. And if the match ends with any other score, no matter what, the main thing is if at least one goal or more was scored, then the bet on TM 0.5 will lose.

As a rule, bookmakers accept bets on TB 0.5 or TM 0.5 on the result of a certain segment of a football match or in a match of one of the rival teams.

Below are the odds of the most popular and reliable bookmakers on the Runet for the bet “Individual total of the Bulgarian national team: TM 0.5 (total less than 0.5)” for the qualifying match of the national teams for the 2018 FIFA World Cup Holland - Bulgaria. (Date and time of the match: 09/03/2017 at 19:00 (MSK). Odds values ​​are presented as of 22:00 (MSK) 09/02/2017)

An example of calculating a bet on a total less than 0.5 (TM 0.5):

Consider the above match between the Dutch national team and the Bulgarian national team. Let's say a bet of 1000 rubles is made. for Bulgaria's individual total is less than 0.5 with odds of 2.08.

Thus, if the Bulgarian team does not score a single goal, then this bet will win; and if Bulgaria scores (at least one goal or more), then this bet will lose.

At the same time, the number of goals scored by the Dutch team in the example under consideration does not matter, because The bet is placed on the individual total of the Bulgarian national team.

For example, if the match ends with a score of 3:0 in favor of the Dutch team, then the bet on« Individual total of the Bulgarian national team: TM 0.5 (total less than 0.5)" will win (since the number of goals scored by Bulgaria is zero) and the bookmaker will pay the winnings to the player who made such a bet in the amount of the amount of the bet made (1000 rubles), multiplied by the coefficient ( K=2.08), i.e. 1000 x 2.08 = 2080 rub..

Every novice bettor wants to understand what total means in betting on sports, in particular football. After all, these options can significantly increase your bet odds and increase your winnings.

Total (Total) is the bettor’s bet on the number of goals that are expected to be scored. This bet is made on a fixed outcome offered by the bookmaker. The better chooses a value greater or less than the proposed one. There are several typesTotal:

• Based on the results of the match.
• Based on the results of a half or period (Total for the first and second or only for one of them).
• Individual total of a certain player (team) - for his goals, yellow/red cards, etc. Designated as iTB, iTM.

What is a match total is the total number of all goals scored during the competition. Moreover, a goal scored by both opponents is considered, but the outcome of the match (who wins) is not taken into account.

The total of a half or period implies that the counting of events will be carried out not within the entire match, but within a certain segment (half or period).

What is an individual total in betting is the achievements of one, usually rated player, for example, a scorer. Sometimes they don’t bet on achievements, but, on the contrary, on failures (number of goals missed, etc.). Also, the individual total is more or less than 1; 2; 3, etc. may not be related to the athlete, but to the achievements of the team.

What is total over (TB) and total under (TM)

Betting onTotal, the better does not indicate the estimated number of goals, but only chooses more or less. Therefore, totals are classified into:

• The total is greater than what the bookmaker offers - the symbolic meaning of TB.
• The total is less than what the bookmaker offers – the symbolic meaning of the TM.

In the lines of bookmakers you can often find an offer to bet on total is more than 0.5; 1; 1.5; 2; 2.5; 3; 3.5; 4; 4.5; 5, etc. – what does this mean in football betting?? It is important to understand that fractional totals(1.5) differ from solid ones (2). For example, a fractional Total greater than 2.5, if you bet on it, will only work in a situation in which the result of the competition is at least three goals. If there are 0 goals; 1 or 2 – the bet will not go through.

And in the case of a complete 2, if there are 2 goals in match 2, the bet will be returned. Wanting to bet more on Total, the player chooses from a range of values ​​(from TB 0.5 to TB 6) presented by the bookmaker on this event. Bet onTotal greater than 0.5 means that the number of goals can be any, the main thing is that there is no draw.

Total is less than 0.5; 1; 1.5; 2; 2.5; 3; 3.5; 4; 4.5; 5; 5.5; 6 goals in sports betting, including football – what does this mean? In this case, as with TB, you need to choose one of the options offered by the bookmaker. For example, in the match Dynamo - Vorskla, the bookmaker offers bets on Total less than 0.5; 2; 3.5. Better is confident that the teams' motivation is low and they will play sluggishly. Therefore, he bets on Total less than 0.5 or 2. In the case of TM 2, the match should end with the results 1-0, 0-1, 0-0. If the TM bet is 0.5, then it will only go in if there is a draw.

Asian total in betting – what is it?

The classic total is a multiple of 0.5 (this is 0.5; 1; 1.5; 2; 3.5, etc.) – this is, in principle, everything described above. There is also Total, a multiple of an integer – 1; 2; 3.

In football, predictions can also be made on the Asian total, which is more “sensitive” than 0.5 or 1, since it is a multiple of 0.25. What does this option give the bettor? The same safety net as in a bet on a double outcome. After all, the Asian total involves a combo bet on 2 adjacent TB or TM (0.75; 1.75; 2.75, etc.). For example, we chose a TB bet of 2.25 and bet 100 rubles on it. In such a situation, the following results are possible:

• The bettor receives all the winnings if 3 goals or more are scored.
• If 1 goal is scored during the match, the bet does not go through and the money is lost.
• If 2 goals are scored, the bettor receives a refund of half the bet (50 rubles). This is due to the peculiarities of the Asian total, because it is divided into two bets, multiples of 0.5, located next to each other (TB 2 and 2.5). And the money bet is also distributed equally between two adjacent bets.

The advantages of such a bet appear in situations where the bettor needs to make the most flexible and less risky forecast depending on the specifics of the bet. sporting event. Total with a multiple of 0.25 increases the chances of a bet being successful and reduces the likelihood of losing or having the bet returned.

What is a three-way total (including corners) in betting?

What does a three-way total mean in betting? This is the total of a match, which consists of three options - TB, TM or “equal to a certain value”. This type of bet is quite difficult to predict, so the odds here are higher than usual.

There is also an option such as individual three-way total 1 (teams 1) or individual three-way total 2 (teams 2). Here the goals of not both teams are counted, but of one specific one. And then we choose greater than, less than or equal to.

What is an individual three-way total on corners is the same as a bet on an individual total of a match (player or team) on corners. Only the odds in this case are higher, in particular if the better chooses the option “equal to a certain exact number of goals.”

How to bet on football TB 0.5

Total over 0.5 in the first half

Total Under 0.5 (TM 0.5) what does this mean?

Football strategies Total Under 0.5

How to bet on football TM 0.5

Total bets are among the most popular among cappers around the world. Moreover, both beginners and experienced players make their predictions on TB and TM both before the match and during live mode. This is explained by the fact that this type of bet has a good chance of winning. The passability of forecasts for totals is high, because they can be analyzed according to statistics and the correct option can be selected.

You should start your analysis after you have decided which indicator you will “flirt” - more or less. Based on this choice, you begin to select the “right” leagues and championships. If you want to try your hand at TV, then we are looking for championships that have a very high performance in terms of goals scored. Well, for TM you need to look for leagues in which teams score little.

We have worked hard for you and selected the TOP most scoring and productive football championships. The following is a list in order from the most effective to the least effective:

1. Switzerland
2. Netherlands
3. Belgium
4. Germany
5. Portugal
6. Spain
7 - 8. England and Ukraine
9. Türkiye
10. France
11. Italy
12. Russia

The data is taken for the last and current year - 2017/2018. In general, statistics change slightly from year to year.

Well, the most ineffective leagues are: Denmark, Montenegro, Tunisia, Macedonia, Albania.

Since in this moment we are interested in TB 0.5, we consider only the TOP scoring champions. Here we took the Swiss First League, the match Wolen - Xamax.

Here the Total bet over 0.5 looked “iron-concrete” because both teams, according to statistics, played all the last 5 games with other teams and in personal confrontations at 0.5 Total. As a result, the match ended with a score of 0:3, and then all the totals went up to 2.5. Those who installed TB 3 received a refund.

You can do your calculations by looking at the statistics of other unmentioned championships and choose less or more productive ones. For this see total games, and count how many matches were played on TM or TB. Where we have the most “needed” fights, we choose those countries. Then we move on to identifying the least scoring or most productive teams and wait for their matches to make a forecast.

Football strategies Total Over 0.5

Above you saw what we were guided by when choosing a match for a bet on a total greater than 0.5. So, the TB 0.5 strategy for football is as follows: we take one of the most productive championships (the TOP is presented in the form of a list above), analyze which team scores the most and which concedes the most. And we begin to look at the statistics of the matches of these teams. If lion's share games of these teams exceeds 1 goal scored (and this will be enough for us to make the bet work), we are already moving on to the future match and can make our prediction for the total more. However, in addition to big picture all team matches, it is important to view the statistics of personal meetings. Because sometimes it happens that opponents score and concede a lot of goals to other teams, and often play a dry draw among themselves (0:0). Such a moment must be excluded.

This is how Villarreal and Atletico Madrid met in the Spanish Primera match. In 25 personal meetings, the teams played 0:0 only once. Therefore, the bet TB 0.5 was calm for this event.

I hope you have now learned the simple, but very important rules according to the strategy of betting on the total more than 0.5 and you will be able to make your first successful predictions.

How to bet on football TB 0.5

In order to place a bet on football TB 0.5, you need to go to your Personal Area in the bookmaker's office, select the desired event and view all available bets. Find the “Totals” section and the first one we need will be “0.5”. Click on the odds of 1.035 in the “More” column and in the coupon that appears, enter the desired bet amount and click “Place a bet”.

This “Menu” for choosing a bet is approximately identical in all online bookmakers.

Of course, the coefficient is small, but the chances of such a deal happening are very high. With a bet of 10,000 rubles, you will win 350 rubles. The other side of the coin is that you can imagine how much you need to do good bets 10,000 rubles each (winning 350-550 rubles from each) to cover a possible failure (losing one bet of 10 thousand rubles). Therefore, it is better to bet live, when, for example, 20-30 minutes of the match have been played and the score has not yet been opened. If you are confident that the teams will score a goal in the remaining time, and this is supported by analyzed data, bet. Then you can already win with 10,000 rubles an order of magnitude more - 2-3 thousand, since the coefficient during the match and with a zero score grows a little every minute.

Total over 0.5 in the first half

A bet on 0.5 TB in the first half already gives a higher odds than a forecast for the whole match, but the risks here also increase. If the Total bet is more than 0.5 in the 1st half, one of the opposing teams must score a goal. In this case, your prediction will work and you will receive a win. If after the first half the teams go to break with the score 0:0, your bet loses.

Here clear example such an “unsuccessful” match. Serie A, Benevento-Cagliari. In total, 3 goals were scored in the match, and the first ball flew into the net in the 46th minute...

Although in the last five matches the Benevento team either scored or conceded a goal in the first half. Therefore, even a detailed and scrupulous analysis cannot guarantee one hundred percent success of the bet; remember this and be careful and judicious when choosing!

It is also important to pay attention to the mood, the degree of importance of the fight, the attacking and defensive potential of the opponents. If all these nuances tip the scales towards a quick goal in the match, or at least that one ball should fly into the net before the break, only then can a deal be concluded for 0.5 TB in the first half.

Total Under 0.5 (TM 0.5) what does this mean?

From total we move more to TM 0.5. This type of bet means that the number of goals will be less than one. Those. a deal with such an outcome wins only when no goals are scored, no goals are thrown, etc. If there is at least 1 successful strike, the deal did not work.

TO this species bets need to be approached with special attention, since goalless draws are quite rare than high-scoring matches where there is at least one goal scored. However, if you play live bets, you have great chances to win. You can bet the total less than 0.5 not for the entire match, but for one half, period or quarter. You look at the match statistics, the number of dangerous attacks and shots on goal. If two defensive teams are playing and few shots are taken on target, but most of games - there is a reason to bet on TM. It is unlikely that any of the opponents will take risks in the end and rush into the attack with all their might. It is also important to look at tournament motivation, etc.

Well, don’t forget about the country in which the game is taking place. If this is a lower-level championship, where victories in matches with two or more goals are rare, then you are on the right track.

Football strategies Total Under 0.5

For this type of bet, we still recommend making predictions in live bets. Because the likelihood that teams will not score a single goal in the entire game is much less than that they will score. Therefore, only when half and more games played, when you can see how events developed on the field and get acquainted with detailed statistics on the match, only then can you make a decision on the TM 0.5 bet. This applies to both goals and other indicators - yellow cards, deletions, substitutions, etc.

Here is an example of what odds are given after 50 minutes and, in any case, this is a more rational option than betting before the match.

The odds of 2.99 in live will, of course, be less than what you would have bet before the match, but here you have more confidence and match statistics. Before the start, you might have missed this event altogether, since everything would have pointed to a big score. But quite often there are exceptions... And teams that easily broke through TB ​​2.5 at one point can play to zero. Therefore, we still consider the main strategy to be “catching” TM 0.5 in live mode.

Of course, you can bet before the start of the fight, the odds will be an order of magnitude higher, but the chances of winning the deal are much less.

How to bet on football TM 0.5

After you have learned what a bet on a total less than 0.5 is, when you have figured out how it is calculated and learned the main strategy of the game for this type of transaction, it’s time to move on to practice. Of course, the first bets may or may not be lucky, but time and experience will do their job in the end. The main thing is that you are armed and will not repeat the mistakes of ignorant novice players. And this is a good handicap in a “bookmaker’s career.”

After you have registered and logged into your personal account on the bookmaker’s website, go to the appropriate “Football” section, then click on the desired championship or, if it is live, then view the line and select the match on which you will place your bet .

Once you have decided on the event and decided to bet the total less than 0.5, go to the desired event, select “Total” bets and in the “Under” column select the odds opposite the result of 0.5.

If you make the right choice, after the end of the match you will immediately receive your long-awaited winnings and will be able to continue betting or withdrawing the money you won.

There are many tactics for playing in bookmakers, one of which is the strategy of betting on a total of 0.5 in football. With its help, you can earn good money at a distance.

The 0.5 over total strategy is quite simple, but you must be patient and strictly follow the rules. If you deviate from the system, you can lose the pot. Beginners sometimes find it especially difficult to resist the temptation to jump into the game at the wrong time.

Features of the strategy total more than 0.5

The betting strategy for total over 0.5 implies that the match will end with at least 1 goal scored. Accordingly, you will only lose if the score is 0-0, which rarely happens. So this system bets can be safely ranked among the least risky among other so-called ones.

We do not recommend betting before the match because low coefficient offered by bookmakers. IN Live mode the quote constantly increases until the first goal is scored, and sometimes reaches a high coefficient. You can also increase your winnings on bets total over 0.5 if you use various options, for example: total over 0.5 in the starting 15 minutes of the match, total over 0.5 in the first half, etc.

How to bet on total 0.5 correctly

To use a strategy for totals greater than 0.5, you do not need extensive experience or special skills. You only need to be able to place simple bets and follow the instructions.

First of all, decide on the bet amount. Large amounts not bet: for beginners a maximum of 1000 rubles, depending on the bank. Try to find Soccer game, in which at least 1 goal is scored. If you are a beginner and do not understand football, look for predictions from experts on the Internet.

Select suitable bets for your strategy on football over 0.5 total. This is easy to do by using a search on bookmaker websites.

How to choose the right moment to bet total over 0.5

The main thing is not to bet until the match starts. This must be done after the bookmakers increase the odds in Live mode. If you are counting on a goal in the first minutes of the half, you need to place as soon as possible with odds greater than 1.1 to take full advantage.

The second option for betting on the total 0.5 strategy assumes that you will bet in half an hour. The coefficient should increase significantly by this moment. You can also not bet at all in the first half, waiting until the second, and then the odds will certainly rise by more than 1.2 units, increasing your winnings.

Bets on totals greater than 0.5 before the match are meaningless due to odds of 1.05-1.25. The strategy is to look for matches where there are no goals, but there is a high probability of goals being scored. When there are zeros on the scoreboard after the first half, the quotes increase to 1.25-1.45.

Most often, goals are scored at the beginning of the second half and at the end of the game, so wait until the 70th minute to bet on odds of 1.7-1.9.

Matchmaking for strategy

Efficiency– teams must score. Choose meetings of those clubs that differ in goals in each match and play for a total of less than 0.5 in a maximum of 1 match out of 10.

Open game– teams that profess attacking football, rather than a defensive style of play, are suitable.

Soccer players– the absence of attacking leaders reduces the team’s attacking power. Study lineups and uniforms to understand the state of teams and key players.

Integrity– opponents are obliged to fight for victory, because if someone is satisfied with a draw, the chances are high that it will be 0:0.

Availability of broadcast– draw conclusions after watching the first 45 minutes. Sometimes the approach of a goal is felt intuitively. See how your opponents attack and how often they shoot on target. Evaluate the actions of the goalkeepers.
