What does the total mean in sports betting, in particular football, I want to understand every novice bettor. After all, these options can significantly increase the odds of the bet and increase the winnings.
Total (Total is a bettor's bet on the number of goals expected to be scored.. Such a bet is made in relation to the fixed result offered by the bookmaker. Better chooses a value greater or less than the proposed one. There are several typesTotal:
- Match results.
- According to the results of the half or period (Total for the first and second, or only for one of them).
- The individual total of a certain player (team) - for his goals, yellow / red cards, etc. It is designated as iTB, iTM.
What is the total of the match - this is the total number of all goals scored during the competition. Moreover, the goal of both opponents is considered, and the outcome of the match (who won) is not taken into account.
The total of a half or period implies that the counting of events will be carried out within the framework of not the entire match, but a certain segment (half or period).
What is an individual total in bets - these are the achievements of one, usually a rated player, for example, scorer. Sometimes they bet not on achievements, but, on the contrary, on failures (the number of goals conceded, etc.). Also, the individual total is over or under 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)
By 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 more than the bookmaker offers - the symbolic value of TB.
- The total is less than the bookmaker offers - the symbolic value of TM.
In the lines of bookmakers you can often find an offer to bet on total over 0.5; one; 1.5; 2; 2.5; 3; 3.5; four; 4.5; 5 etc. – what does it 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 go in a situation in which the result of the competition is at least three goals. In case there are 0 goals; 1 or 2 - the bet will not go in.
And in the case of a solid TO 2, with a result of goals for the match 2, there will be a refund of the bet. Wanting to bet more on Total, the player chooses from the range of values (from TB 0.5 to TB 6) provided by the bookmaker for 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 less than 0.5; one; 1.5; 2; 2.5; 3; 3.5; four; 4.5; 5; 5.5; 6 goals in sports betting, including football - what does it mean? AT this case, as with TB, you need to choose one of the options offered by the bookmaker. For example, in a match between Dynamo and Vorskla, BC offers bets on Total less than 0.5; 2; 3.5. Better is sure 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 Under 2, the match must end with the results 1-0, 0-1, 0-0. If the bet TM is 0.5, then it will go in only in case of a draw.
Asian total in bets - what is it
The classic total multiple of 0.5 (this is 0.5; 1; 1.5; 2; 3.5, etc.) is, in principle, everything that is described above. There is also Total, a multiple of an integer - 1; 2; 3.
In football, forecasts can also be made for 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 better? All the same safety net, as in the 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 the TB rate of 2.25 and bet 100 rubles on it. In such a situation, the following results are possible:
- The better receives all winnings if 3 goals or more are scored.
- If 1 goal is scored during the match, the bet is not successful and the money is lost.
- If 2 goals are scored, the better receives a refund of half the bet (50 rubles). This is due to the peculiarities of the Asian total, because it is decomposed into two bets, multiples of 0.5, located next to each other (TB 2 and 2.5). And the wagered money is also distributed equally between two adjacent bets.
The advantages of such a bet are manifested in those situations when the bettor needs to make the most flexible and less risky prediction, depending on the characteristics of a sporting event. Total with a multiplicity of 0.25 increases the chances of a bet to enter, and reduces the likelihood of losing or returning a bet.
What is a three-way total (including corners) in bets
What does a three-way total mean in bets - this is the total of the 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 such an option as an individual three-way total 1 (teams 1) or an individual three-way total 2 (teams 2). Here the goals are counted not by both teams, but by one specific one. And then choose greater than, less than or equal to.
What is an individual three-way total on corners - this is the same as betting on an individual total of a match (player or team) on corners. Only quotes in this case are higher, in particular, if the better chooses the option “equal to a certain exact number of goals”.
There are many tactics of playing in bookmakers, one of which is the strategy of betting on total 0.5 in football. With its help, you can earn good money at a distance.
The total 0.5 strategy is rather simple, but you have to be patient and strictly follow the rules. By deviating 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 over 0.5
The over 0.5 betting strategy implies that the match will end with at least 1 goal scored. Accordingly, you will only lose if the score is 0-0, which happens infrequently. So this betting system can be safely ranked among the least risky among the other so-called.
We do not recommend betting before the match due to low coefficient offered by bookmakers. In Live mode, the quote constantly increases until the first goal is scored, and sometimes reaches a high coefficient.

The second betting option for the total 0.5 strategy suggests that you bet in half an hour. The coefficient should decently grow up by this moment. Also, you can not bet at all in the first half, waiting for the second, and then the odds will surely rise by more than 1.2 units, increasing your winnings.
TB 0.5 is an abbreviation of the standard bet on totals in betting. "T" stands for total, "B" - over, "0.5" - the number of goals to be scored / points that teams need to earn for the match / part of the match.
The rate is notable for football, hockey, baseball, water polo, futsal and other sports, where the total number of goals / points scored often does not exceed ten.
The bet counts as a win if the teams participating in the game scored 1 or more goals in the match. Consider the cases of passing and not passing the bet using examples.
Example #1:
Angola vs Australia. A bet on over 0.5 in a match with odds of 1.18. The match ended with a score of 1-0. That is, there was 1 goal in the match, which satisfies the requirements of our bet.
Example #2:
Saudi Arabia vs Iran. The bet on TB is 0.5, the coefficient is 1.23. The score in the match is 0-0, there were no goals, which means the bet is lost.

Selection of a match for the strategy tb 0.5

So how do I do it? Statistics show that at least one goal in the 1st half is scored very often, in almost two out of three matches. The difficulty to win on this event lies in the fact that the odds for the total of the 1st half are more than 0.5 (at least one goal will be scored) before the start of the match is very small - 1.2-1.35, therefore, in the medium term, "beat off" even with three wins, one unguessed event is quite problematic. But there are odds even lower, for example, 1.15, sometimes 3 and 5 events in a row are not guessed. What to do? I solve this problem in the following way:
After 10-15 minutes of the match (something rarely happens at the beginning of matches), the coefficient for the event I need increases to 1.5-1.7. I just wait for this moment and place a bet. That's all. It just takes a little patience. There are of course nuances. It happens that the match is selected, we sit waiting for the odds to increase, and then bam and in the 7th minute they score a goal, but you have not made a bet yet. Dont be upset! Football is good because there are enough matches every day - it's not a problem to find a new match! By the way, I already wrote about the merits of betting on football in an article. I recommend to take a look. When betting on the total of the 1st half over 0.5, you don’t even have to understand football, believe me! One goal in the 1st half can be scored by any team, even the most in your opinion not productive! Oh, I almost forgot. I advise you to place such bets using the catch-up method. In this regard, you need to know: if several matches started at about the same time, you only need to choose a match for a bet. BUT next bid do after the end of the 1st half of this match, when the outcome of the event is already known. If the player wishes, a light analysis of the available matches is appropriate. To be honest, I don’t really bother with this, because I’ve been convinced more than once that almost everyone scores a goal in the 1st half regularly. The only thing I prefer to bet on matches using this method major leagues or friendly matches. In the lower leagues, the attackers are still weaker, they may not score. Well, in cup matches they score less often. Hmm, I’ll probably write a post in the near future about matches that should be avoided when placing bets - the topic is voluminous and it’s difficult to explain everything in a nutshell - I’ll tell you in it: when and why you won’t get anything good from some matches.
I’ll also add that in the most “black days” for almost a year of using this betting strategies , I did not guess a maximum of 4 matches in a row. But just in case of a fire, my bank is designed for 6 bets using the “hard catch” method, i.e. With each subsequent bet, I fully win back the previous lost one and win a little more. It is important for me that my bank is at least 10 rubles, but constantly increased.
In the next post, I will tell you more about what you can successfully bet on in the first half. football matches. Follow my blog. I will be happy to answer your questions and wishes in the comments to the article.
