Ένας οδηγός για αρχάριους για στοιχήματα στα Έξι Έθνη

Handicap Markets:

Handicap bets in rugby work the same as any other sports. It is the bookie’s way of levelling the playing field. The handicap essentially gives the underdog in the match a head start that the favoured team has to overcome. In rugby, this would provide the favoured team with a negative starting position, so if the handicap is -12, then the favoured team will have to win by at least 13 points for the bet to be a winning one. It is the best way to bet on the favoured team to ensure maximum returns on bets.

Outright Betting:

The most common way for people to stake their money is on the outright markets. This is simply where gamblers bet on the outright winner of an event. The most common markets in Union for this type of betting is the World Cup, Six Nations and Aviva Premiership.

1X2 Betting:

Away from the outright markets, most people would typically lay a stake on a single bet to ensure that there is entertainment to be had in the fixture regardless of if their team isn’t taking part. The 1X2 market is considered the most straightforward way to place a bet, and even novices will catch onto how it works very quickly. This type of market can be incredibly lucrative for rugby fans.

For instance, if Wales are facing Ireland, the team that is the home team will be ‘1’ while the away team will be ‘2’. The ‘X’ signifies a draw, but due to the rarity of the result in rugby league or Union, this is typically the highest price of all three options. If you have placed a stake on Wales or ‘1’ for this matter, then the bet will be a winning one if they beat Ireland.

Totals Betting:

Bookmakers will simply ask whether there will be over or under X points in the match. You would then decide whether you will place your stake on the match consisting of more or fewer points than the bookmaker is asking. It is a very straightforward way of betting, and the winning team doesn’t affect whether your bet is a winner or not.

Prop Bets:

The prop bets markets are for those who have done thorough research beforehand and are well-read on all factors concerning both teams. Markets that you could find included in this sector include the team to score the first try, time of the first try and first team to score. There are various prop bets available on many bookie websites, and they can be incredibly lucrative if you have done the adequate research beforehand.
