With the 2010 World Cup tournament in South Africa due to kick off in June, leading global online bookmaker SBOBet has launched a new microsite for prospective and existing customers ahead of the tournament.

In addition to featuring the latest news and results surrounding the teams taking part in the tournament, the SBOBet World Cup microsite also features galleries, venue guides and the latest Asian Handicap betting forecasts on upcoming games.

The microsite also features a video tutorial designed to introduce new players to Asian Handicap betting, which provides an alternative method of betting on World Cup matches and can offer prospective World Cup punters improved betting odds over traditional fixed-odds betting.

The concept of Asian Handicap betting was developed in Asia and involves betting on the outcome of a football match by way of a handicap applied to the more favoured team, and thus negates the prospect of any player losing their stake from betting on a match finishing in a draw unlike the traditional Win-Draw-Lose format of many High Street bookmakers.

The featured SBOBet tutorial on Asian Handicap betting will introduce potential punters looking to place wagers on the World Cup to this alternative form of World Cup bettingand has been created to better assist prospective punters in understanding the differences between Asian Handicap betting and traditional fixed-odds markets. SBOBet hope this alternative form of football match betting will entice more prospective World Cup bettors to try Asian Handicap betting as an alternative to fixed-odds betting when considering how to bet and when placing wagers on match outcomes.
