1st quarter - Handicap (Basketball)

Predict what will the result be after the allotted handicap is applied to the point at a certain quarter.

Imagine a basketball game between Home and Away. The sportsbook offers the following 1st quarter handicap:

• Home -2.5

• Away +2.5

If you bet on Home -2.5, they need to lead by at least 3 points at the end of the 1st quarter for your bet to win.
If they lead by 2 points or less, or if they are tied or losing, the bet loses.

If you bet on Away +2.5, they can either be leading, tied, or lose by up to 2 points for your bet to win.

 

The following options are available (For example the allotted handicap is 0.5):

Home(+0.5) bet wins if Home team leads by any number of points in the first half, or the teams draw in the Nth quarter.
Away(-0.5) bet wins if Away team leads by at least 1 point in the 1st quarter.
