No choice since Ginebra's odds to win on Game 3 is just @1.6. Might be good for those who truly support the team but there's more money by betting at a handicap. Meralco fans are being rewarded with good odds as they will have @2 for Meralco to win the match. It's a bonus to those bettors who really like to bet on Meralco.
I hope Meralco will win on Games 3 and 4 so that Ginebra will finally taste an odds of above 2. Ginebra is turning into beast mode once they are in a pressured game which we called win-or-go or do-or-die games so they are likely to win Game 5 after that 2 losses.
Just a scenario I'm thinking of.
I would rather take the handicap as it provides a better return, if Ginebra wins, it should be at least 3+ points, hehe.. It's my personal prediction only because I'm getting biased since I'm also betting on the Ginebra Kings to win and cover the spread.
