In the realm of sports betting, there exists a realm where fortunes are won and lost on a double chance. Unlike a traditional bet where you wager on a single outcome, double chance betting allows you to cover two out of three possible outcomes, significantly increasing your likelihood of success.
Double chance betting, as the name suggests, offers two chances of winning. Instead of selecting a single winner or draw, you can wager on the following outcomes:
Calculating double chance odds is straightforward. Simply add the decimal odds for the two covered outcomes and divide by 3. For example, if the odds for 1X are 1.50 and the odds for X2 are 2.00:
Double Chance Odds = (1.50 + 2.00) / 3 = 1.17
