Understanding Esports Betting Markets at phbhet
Master the most popular bet types for maximum winning potential
Match Winner (Moneyline)
The simplest and most popular esports bet. Pick which team will win the overall match (typically best-of-3 or best-of-5 format). For example, if ECHO faces Blacklist International in MPL PH, you bet on either ECHO or Blacklist to win the series. Odds reflect each team's perceived strength - favorites have lower payouts (e.g., 1.45) while underdogs offer higher returns (e.g., 2.80).
Map Winner
Bet on the winner of individual maps/games within a match. If Team A is favored overall but Team B has a strong pick on Map 1, you can bet on Team B to win that specific map while still predicting Team A wins the series. This allows for more nuanced betting strategies based on draft picks and map familiarity.
Handicap Betting (Spread)
Used when there's a clear favorite, handicap betting "evens out" the odds by giving the underdog a head start or the favorite a deficit. For example, Team A -1.5 maps means Team A must win by at least 2 maps for your bet to succeed. This creates more competitive odds and higher potential returns when betting on dominant teams.
Total Kills / Rounds (Over/Under)
Bet on whether the combined kills/rounds will go over or under a set number. For instance, Total Kills Over 45.5 in a Dota 2 match means you're betting on an aggressive, kill-heavy game. If you expect a defensive, strategic match with fewer fights, bet Under. Analyze team playstyles and recent match trends to inform these bets.
First Blood / First Objective
Bet on which team secures the first kill (First Blood in MOBAs) or first major objective (Roshan in Dota 2, Baron in League of Legends, first spike plant in Valorant). These markets settle quickly and add excitement to the early game. Aggressive teams with strong early-game strategies are better First Blood candidates.
Outright Tournament Winner
Bet on which team will win an entire tournament before it begins. These futures bets offer high payouts on underdogs but require your money to be locked in for days or weeks. Popular for major events like The International or MPL PH Finals where you can secure value odds early before favorites' odds decrease.
Pro Betting Tip: Research Team Form and Patch Changes
Esports betting differs from traditional sports because game patches and updates can dramatically shift team strengths. A Dota 2 patch that nerfs a team's signature heroes can turn favorites into underdogs overnight. Always check recent match results, roster changes, and whether a new game patch was released before placing bets. Follow team social media, watch player streams, and read patch notes - the most successful esports bettors treat research as seriously as the pro players themselves.
