What is a single bet?

In a previous article, we revealed the different types of online bets available at Bet99. Today we will explain in more detail one of its types: the single bet.  

 Among the types of bets available, the simple bet is the opposite of the handicap bet because of its simple way of making it. A handicap bet will require certain scores to see it through to the end of your wager.  

So, you may ask, "Why is this type of bet the most popular of all? How can I optimize my odds of seeing this succeed?" We heard you. The BET99 team reveals all these answers in this article. Follow us!    

The Most Popular  

Single betting is the most popular and well-known bet of all, and that's why most online bettors have more confidence in it. 

Indeed, it's simple and basic: Home win, draw, away win. These are the three possibilities, and none of the others will count in your bet.    

 Optimizing your odds 

You need to know the teams' recent statistics and the number of injured players. In addition, you can boost your odds by analyzing the team's strategy, the players in form, the ranking, the last confrontations etc. This chance can be optimized by your knowledge of the team and league in question. 

Let's say you are betting on a soccer game. The Montreal CF is playing at home against the New York Red Bulls. You place a wager on a Club Foot Montreal home win as a handicap bet, which indicates that a single win for the home team can be both a good and a bad result. You would need a two-goal difference to win a handicap bet.  

A single bet on Club Foot Montreal will only be successful if the team wins, regardless of the score. Your odds will then be increased.  

 To conclude  

In conclusion, as you have seen in this article, the simple bet is the most popular in the online betting world because you usually only have three possible outcomes:  

 -Home win 

 -A draw 

 -An away win
