Meaning of (+1.5) Set Handicap in Badminton Sports Betting

In badminton sports betting, a (+1.5) set handicap means that 1.5 sets are added to the underdog’s total sets won for the purpose of the bet.

What it means:

• The underdog team/player is given a 1.5 set advantage before the match starts.
• The bet is settled based on the number of sets won, after applying the handicap.

How it works:

Badminton matches are usually best of 3 sets.

• If you bet on Player A (+1.5):
  • Your bet wins if Player A wins at least 1 set (even if they lose the match 1–2).
  • Your bet loses only if Player A loses 0–2.
• If you bet on Player B (-1.5):
  • Your bet wins only if Player B wins 2–0.
  • Your bet loses if Player B wins 2–1 or loses the match.

Example:

Match Result	Bet on (+1.5)	Bet Result
Player A loses 1–2	Wins (1 set + 1.5 = 2.5 vs 2)	Win
Player A loses 0–2	0 sets + 1.5 = 1.5 vs 2	Lose
Player A wins 2–0	Win	Win
