Rate this guides

As this guide will show, Toto or “pools” games involves betting on the home win, away win, draw and/or final score of a predetermined number of games/matches. It most often deals with football jackpots. Unlike lotteries which are completely dependent on luck, Toto is a game in which players must analyze and predict the outcome of the game in detail. All the bets from the players are put together into the Toto pool before the start of the games. Then when the matches are over, then the winnings are spread among to the winning players.

No Fixed Prizes

Toto is a pari-mutuel game. This means that the payout % of the game is fixed. But the prizes for the winners are not, though they are dependent on the whole income from the betting pool, along with the number of winners and the % payout on offer. Also many Toto games offer jackpots which are often the sum of un-won prizes from previous competitions. Essentially, the players are betting against each other and there is nothing for the betting operator to lose. You should look for online toto sites.

The Three Types of Toto Games

1. 1-x-2 Betting

This is probably the most popular form of Toto betting and is common in many countries around the globe. The idea is to predict a number of football matches. A Home Win equals “1”, a Draw, “X” and an Away Win equals, “2”.

2. Select Betting

Here you’ll be needing to pick a number of matches out of, say 45 matches. “draw betting” means you need to predict the number of drawn matches. “Goal betting” means you’ll have to pick the matches with the highest number of winning goals. Interestingly, Select betting isn’t so popular in Europe, where everyone plays 1-X-betting.

3. Result Betting

This is simply where the punters try and predict the exact score for any fixed number of football matches.

Toto Systems

There are 3 types of Toto systems based around the number of betting predictions per game. A “Single” is one prediction, with a “Double” and a “Triple” following, with two or three predictions per match. To give an example, a 9 – 3 – 2 Toto ticket means 9 Singles, 3 Doubles and 2 Triples are the predictions.
