class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>Double chance stakes are a great way to lower the risk of your bets, increasing your chance of getting a lot of money. Used by every type of sports bettor, from beginner to expert, double chance staking is not only a great way to mitigate risk, but it\u2019s also super simple to get your head around. Before you get started, bear these things in mind:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Double chance wagering is one of the best ways to mitigate risk, increasing the chance of winning on your bet, as you are betting on two outcomes simultaneously.<\/li>\n<li>As it\u2019s easier to win double chance stakes, as you have double the chance, the odds are lower. This means returns are lower than with other similar bet types, such as <a href=\"\/blog\/en\/what-is-the-moneyline-in-sports-betting\/\">moneyline bets<\/a>.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"What_Is_a_Double_Chance_Bet\"><\/span>What Is a Double Chance Bet?<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>A double chance stake does exactly what it says on the tin. If you\u2019re placing a wager on a sporting event, you have double the chance of victory. It is essential that you understand that while there is double the chance of victory, this decreases the odds, giving lower returns.<\/p>\n<p>It works pretty simply. Imagine a football game with three outcomes: team A wins, team B wins, or there is a draw A double chance bet allows you to bet on two of the three outcomes. For example, you could bet that the home team wins or draws against the away team. If team A wins, you get paid, if team A draws, you get paid. If team B wins, you don\u2019t get paid.<\/p>\n<p>Let\u2019s take a real-world example. Look at the football match below between <em>Wolverhampton Wanderers (Wolves)<\/em> and <em>Aston Villa (Villa)<\/em>:<\/p>\n<table style=\"width: 720px;\" border=\"1\" cellspacing=\"1\" cellpadding=\"1\" align=\"center\">\n<tbody>\n<tr>\n<td style=\"text-align: center;\">1 or draw<\/td>\n<td style=\"text-align: center;\"><strong>1.22<\/strong><\/td>\n<td style=\"text-align: center;\">No draw<\/td>\n<td style=\"text-align: center;\"><strong>1.27<\/strong><\/td>\n<td style=\"text-align: center;\">2 or draw<\/td>\n<td style=\"text-align: center;\"><strong>1.81<\/strong><\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n<p><em>Wolves<\/em> are indicated with &#8220;1&#8221; and <em>Villa<\/em> by &#8220;2&#8221;.\u00a0Bets can be placed by choosing <em>Wolves<\/em> to win or draw. Alternatively, you can predict that <em>Wolves<\/em> or <em>Villa<\/em> to win (but no draw). Or lastly, you can place a bet on <em>Aston Villa<\/em> to win or draw.<\/p>\n<p>For those betting on <em>Wolves<\/em> or draw (&#8220;1 or draw&#8221;), the odds are 1.22. This means if you were to bet 50,000 TZS and the <em>Wolves<\/em> win, you\u2019d get paid 61,000 TZS \u2014 a profit of 11,000 TZS. If the <em>Wolves<\/em> draw, this would be the same. If <em>Villa<\/em> wins, you\u2019d lose your 50,000 TZS stake.<\/p>\n<p>If you bet on either Wolves or Villa to win, you betting that there won\u2019t be a draw. The odds are 1.27, meaning you\u2019d turn a profit of 13,500 TZS if there isn\u2019t a draw.<\/p>\n<p>While less likely, <em>Villa&#8217;s<\/em> win or draw would reward bettors with a tidy profit of 40,500 TZS on a 50,000 TZS bet.<\/p>\n<div class=\"btn-box\"><a href=\"\/en\/football\/prematch\/1?utm_source=tz_blog&amp;utm_medium=football_prematch&amp;utm_campaign=double-chance-betting\" class=\"article__button button button_article\" style=\"\" target=\"_self\">Try Double Chance Football Betting<\/a><\/div>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Possible_Markets_for_Double_Chance_Betting_on_Parimatch\"><\/span>Possible Markets for Double Chance Betting on Parimatch<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>Parimatch rewards its users with a range of diverse betting options, both in terms of sports events and betting strategies.

When you bet live, you\u2019re using the action in real-time to determine where to place your bets. As live bets happen in real-time, the double chance odds constantly change with what\u2019s happening in the match.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"\/en\/football\/prematch\/1?utm_source=tz_blog&amp;utm_medium=football_prematch&amp;utm_campaign=double-chance-betting\"><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" class=\"aligncenter wp-image-3817\" src=\"https:\/\/parimatch.co.tz\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/Live-Double-Chance-Betting.png\" alt=\"Football double chance betting\" width=\"380\" height=\"675\" srcset=\"https:\/\/parimatch.co.tz\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/Live-Double-Chance-Betting.png 746w, https:\/\/parimatch.co.tz\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/Live-Double-Chance-Betting-225x400.png 225w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 380px) 100vw, 380px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>For example, imagine that Team A\u2019s goalkeeper is sent off in the first half.

While there are three possible outcomes, you are likely to win 2 out of the 3 times, decreasing the risk of loss. As you are betting on two possible outcomes at once, this increases the likelihood of your victory and explains the name \u201cdouble chance\u201d bet \u2014 as you have double the chance!<\/p>\n<p>Double-chance wagering is a far less risky strategy and a great way for beginners to get their feet wet with online sports betting.<\/p>\n<p>More experienced bettors can leverage double-chance wagering to bet on underdogs. Imagine that <em>Man U<\/em> is going to play a big UEFA Champions Cup game on Monday. However, on Friday before, <em>Man U<\/em> is playing <em>Wolves<\/em>. While Wolves may usually be considered the underdog, the likelihood is that <em>Man U<\/em> will play a lesser team against Wolves. This is because they\u2019ll save their top lineup for the UEFA game. In this sense, the Wolves have more chance of winning. Rather than betting everything on the underdog, however, you could place a double chance bet, supporting the underdog and choosing a second outcome to somewhat mitigate the risk.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Disadvantages:<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>The main disadvantage of double chance wagering is that the odds are low as the risk is lower than with single bets. As you are more likely to win than with single bets, your returns are relatively small compared to riskier wagers. This is an essential thing to consider when the math looks as though it will be one-sided. If there is a clear favorite, you\u2019re usually better off betting on the favorite rather than splitting the bet between the favorite and a draw, for example.<\/p>\n<div class=\"btn-box\"><a href=\"\/en\/football\/prematch\/1?utm_source=tz_blog&amp;utm_medium=football_prematch&amp;utm_campaign=double-chance-betting\" class=\"article__button button button_article\" style=\"\" target=\"_self\">Take a Risk to Win<\/a><\/div>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Benefits_of_Double_Chance_Betting_on_Parimatch\"><\/span>Benefits of Double Chance Betting on Parimatch<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>As the most dynamic betting platform in Africa, Parimatch prides itself on its wealth of diversity, unparalleled <a href=\"\/blog\/en\/why-is-sports-betting-customer-support-important\/\">customer service<\/a>, and state-of-the-art app.<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><strong>User-friendly sports betting app<\/strong><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>Parimatch has built a state-of-the-art intuitive Android\/iOS app that enables users to bet on matches and tournaments worldwide.

This is because you have double the chance of winning when placing a double-chance bet. However, calculating these odds is a little more complex than halving the odds. That said, it\u2019s not too tricky!<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"\/en\/football\/prematch\/1?utm_source=tz_blog&amp;utm_medium=football_prematch&amp;utm_campaign=double-chance-betting\"><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" class=\"aligncenter wp-image-3818\" src=\"https:\/\/parimatch.co.tz\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/Double-chance-on-Parimatch.png\" alt=\"Double chance bets on Parimatch\" width=\"380\" height=\"679\" srcset=\"https:\/\/parimatch.co.tz\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/Double-chance-on-Parimatch.png 742w, https:\/\/parimatch.co.tz\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/Double-chance-on-Parimatch-224x400.png 224w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 380px) 100vw, 380px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>To work out the odds of a double chance bet, you take the odds of the two outcomes as separate bets and multiply them together. Next, take the odds of the 2 outcomes and add them together. Now divide the multiplied number by the added number like this:<\/p>\n<p>Team A wins or draws = Team A odds * draw odds\/ (Team A odds + draw odds)<\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Would_it_Be_More_Profitable_to_Place_Two_Separate_Bets\"><\/span>Would it Be More Profitable to Place Two Separate Bets?<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>First, you should know that you can&#8217;t place two bets on different outcomes of the same event. That would be cheating, right? That&#8217;s why this option is not available.<\/p>\n<p>Still, let&#8217;s imagine what would happen if this had been possible. Take this example of <em>Norwich City<\/em> vs. <em>Watford FC.<\/em><\/p>\n<p><strong>1&#215;2 bet<\/strong><\/p>\n<table style=\"width: 720px;\" border=\"1\" cellspacing=\"1\" cellpadding=\"1\" align=\"center\">\n<tbody>\n<tr>\n<td style=\"text-align: center;\">1<\/td>\n<td style=\"text-align: center;\"><strong>2.65<\/strong><\/td>\n<td style=\"text-align: center;\">Draw<\/td>\n<td style=\"text-align: center;\"><strong>3.55<\/strong><\/td>\n<td style=\"text-align: center;\">2<\/td>\n<td style=\"text-align: center;\"><strong>2.55<\/strong><\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n<p><strong>Example of a double chance bet<\/strong><\/p>\n<table style=\"width: 720px;\" border=\"1\" cellspacing=\"1\" cellpadding=\"1\" align=\"center\">\n<tbody>\n<tr>\n<td style=\"text-align: center;\">1 or draw<\/td>\n<td style=\"text-align: center;\"><strong>1.47<\/strong><\/td>\n<td style=\"text-align: center;\">No draw<\/td>\n<td style=\"text-align: center;\"><strong>1.28<\/strong><\/td>\n<td style=\"text-align: center;\">2 or draw<\/td>\n<td style=\"text-align: center;\"><strong>1.43<\/strong><\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n<p>The odds that Norwich will win are 2.65, a Watford win is 2.55, and a draw has odds of 3.55. Imagine that you want to place a 100,000 TZS bet. If the game is one-sided, placing a single bet makes sense. However, if you want to mitigate the risk by spreading your bets across two possible outcomes (e.g. a Norwich win or a draw), a double-chance bet is more profitable.<\/p>\n<p>Imagine you\u2019re betting on Norwich to win or for a draw. You split your 100,000 TZS into two 50,000 TZS bets. You place one bet on Norwich at 2.65 odds and a 50,000 TZS bet on a draw at 3.55 odds. Say that Norwich draws, and you\u2019ll win 177,500 TSZ. However, deduct the original 100,000 TSZ stake to work out your profit, leaving a profit of 77,500 TZS.<\/p>\n<p>Say that Norwich wins, on the other hand, you\u2019ll only receive 132,500 TZS. leaving a profit of 32,500 TZS.<\/p>\n<p>Now consider that instead, you place a double chance bet on Norwich to win or a draw. The odds are 1.47, and you place 100,000 TZS on these outcomes. Whether Norwich wins or draws, you\u2019ll win a profit of 47,000 TZS.<\/p>\n<p>As you can see, double-chance betting works in your favor to balance underdogs, but it\u2019s essential to compare the odds of single and double bets to ensure you\u2019re getting the best deal.<\/p>\n<div class=\"btn-box\"><a href=\"\/en\/football\/prematch\/1?utm_source=tz_blog&amp;utm_medium=football_prematch&amp;utm_campaign=double-chance-betting\" class=\"article__button button button_article\" style=\"\" target=\"_self\">Master Your Double Chance Betting Skills<\/a><\/div>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Explore_Other_Betting_Types_at_Parimatch\"><\/span>Explore Other Betting Types at Parimatch<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>If you are looking for other available types of bets on our website, here are a few popular choices among our players:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><a href=\"\/blog\/en\/half-time-full-time-betting-strategy-explained\/\">Half-time\/full-time<\/a><\/li>\n<li><a href=\"\/blog\/en\/what-is-handicap-betting-explained\/\">Handicap<\/a><\/li>\n<li><a href=\"\/blog\/en\/asian-handicap\/\">Asian Handicap<\/a><\/li>\n<li><a href=\"\/blog\/en\/1x2-betting\/\">1\u00d72 (3-way)<\/a><\/li>\n<li><a href=\"\/blog\/en\/what-is-the-moneyline-in-sports-betting\/\">Moneyline (to win)<\/a><\/li>\n<li><a href=\"\/blog\/en\/over-under\/\">Total (over\/under)<\/a><\/li>\n<li><a href=\"\/blog\/en\/both-teams-to-score\/\">Both teams to score<\/a><\/li>\n<li><a href=\"\/blog\/en\/draw-betting\/\">Draw<\/a><\/li>\n<li><a href=\"\/blog\/en\/draw-no-bet\/\">No draw<\/a><\/li>\n<li><a href=\"\/blog\/en\/goals-odd-even\/\">Odd\/even<\/a><\/li>\n<li><a href=\"\/blog\/en\/correct-score-betting\/\">Correct score<\/a><\/li>\n<li><a href=\"\/blog\/en\/late-goals-betting\/\">Late goals<\/a><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Is_Double_Chance_for_Experts_or_Beginners\"><\/span>Is Double Chance for Experts or Beginners?<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>Double chance is a relatively simple technique. As it gives you higher odds than placing a single bet, double chance wagering has far lower risk than other wagering strategies on Parimatch. In this sense, it\u2019s often seen as a strategy used by beginners. Equally, as the returns are relatively low, it\u2019s less common that very experienced bettors bother with such low odds.<\/p>\n<p>That said, some experienced bettors believe that placing lots of low-odds bets with high stakes is wise, as you have more chance of winning. In this sense, it doesn\u2019t matter that the odds are low because the stake you place is high, so the profit will reflect this. Expert bettors realize that they can make safer bets with the double chance wagering and therefore leverage this to place less risky bets with high stakes for booming returns.<\/p>\n<p>Double-chance betting can work in your favor when the odds are imbalanced, or you\u2019re attempting to bet on the underdog while mitigating risk. In these cases, expert sports bet-makers may use double-chance betting to increase their returns compared to single betting.<\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Double_Your_Chances_with_Parimatch\"><\/span>Double Your Chances with Parimatch<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>What are you waiting for? Now that you know the double chance in betting, it\u2019s time to practice. If you\u2019re wondering whether double-chance bets are for you, ask yourself if you\u2019re happy with slightly lower returns for a higher chance of winning. If this is the case, double-chance betting is for you.<\/p>\n<p>Alternatively, ask yourself if you\u2019d like to place a bet on the underdog but would like to alleviate a little of the risk. Again, if this is a yes, try to bet double chance. If this doesn\u2019t sound like you, ask yourself if you can afford to place high stakes as long as the chance of winning is higher. Is this you? If so, double-chance bets are also for you!<\/p>\n<p>The Parimatch platform has many bonuses for new customers, so you can make free bets.
