A handicap bet is favorable when there’s a match between a strong team and an underdog. The team that is less likely to win usually has an edge of +1.5 or more, depending on the differences of the teams that play. This means if they play 3 rounds, the favourite has to win with 2 maps for you to win your bet.
Map betting is a broad market. It involves betting on several events to occur in a map. For instance, total kills, most kills, most won maps and so on.
When you bet on LCK a simple bet can always be the best. This wager involves staking on the team that will destroy the first turrets in the game. In total there are ten of them and it's essential to take out the first one to progress forward.
