  • Spread Betting: You may know this one as handicap betting too. In order to win the bet, the final result must match the handicap points given by the bookmakers. For example, if this point is -1, that team must win by at least 2 points difference. (Just winning the match is not enough.)
  • Prop Bets: This category contains lots of different outcomes and offers amazing variety. Proposition betting is always about exotic options such as who will win a specific map, which player will score the most points, or who will destroy the most towers.
