Betting Types Explained

The 1X2 System – Classic Match Result

This is the standard bet used in soccer betting and all Soccer Pools. You choose the outcome after 90 minutes:

• 1 – Home team to win
• X – Draw
• 2 – Away team to win

Singles, Doubles & Triple Bets

Sometimes it’s safer to back more than one possible result in a single match. These are known as double or triple bets. They offer more coverage, but cost more per line.

Triple Chance Bets are only available in Soccer Pools-style games and lock that leg of your bet.

Double Chance Bets are widely used in normal sports betting and combo tickets.

Double Chance Betting

This option covers two outcomes at once – ideal when you’re unsure but want insurance:

• 1X – Home win or Draw
• X2 – Draw or Away win
• 12 – Home win or Away win (no draw)

Triple Chance Betting

This bet covers all three outcomes (1X2) and closes that leg on your coupon:

1X2 – Any result will land (home/draw/away)

Banker Bets & Codes

Bankers are selections with the strongest stats – picks with the highest chance of success.

Often used in multiple bet combos (accas), they anchor your ticket while others bring the odds.

Note: more legs = higher risk, but also a higher payout!

Smart punters mix solid wins, double chances, and total goals to build a balanced slip.
