How to Bet on Table Tennis and Types of Table Tennis Bets

There are lots of different bets you can place on table tennis at Stake.com to keep things interesting when backing your favourite players:

Winner

As with all sports betting, the easiest way to bet on table tennis at Stake.com is to pick who will win a match. Moneyline betting is a great starting point for novice bettors.

Outright betting

The outright bet is a good wager to place on a player to win an upcoming tournament before it begins. Odds will shift in the weeks and days leading into it. Placing more money on an outsider can reap dividends if they end up going all the way.

Specific game winner

Every table tennis match comprises several games, as the sport follows a best-of format. As such, you can place a wager on who you think will win a specific game within a match, making things more enjoyable on your betting slip.

Correct score

A correct score bet is a great option, as table tennis matches are played in a best-of-five sets format and each set consists of 11 games. Players must win by 2 clear points. Whether you think the game will be tight or a whitewash is possible, a correct score wager is a great way of hedging your bets.

Total points

Most table tennis matches comprise three or more games, with players competing to score 11 points. As such, you can place an over/under wager on the total number of points you think will be scored in a match, which is a way of betting on table tennis without worrying about the player who wins the match-up.

Points handicap

Handicap betting is a great way to bet on popular sports. If there’s an overwhelming favourite in a match-up, a points handicap bet is a way of levelling the playing field. If you bet on the favourite, they must overcome the points handicap set for your bet to succeed.

For example, Fan Zhendong of China might be picked as the favourite to win, so you might want to place a points handicap bet.

Set winner

The number of sets in a table tennis match depends on how well the winner does and the format of the competition. But you can place a wager on which player you think will win a specific set, enabling you to break your betting slip down even further to identify the best table tennis odds available.

Table Tennis Betting Strategies & Table Tennis Betting Tips

So, how do you give yourself the best chance of winning a table tennis bet? Here are table tennis betting tips and strategies to bear in mind:

Understand the rules: As table tennis isn’t a mainstream sport, make sure you understand the rules and gameplay before betting. You need to understand how points are won and how games play out. Specific rules like the two-point winning rule are also important to consider before making your selection.
Form and injuries play a big role: Just like every other sport, the table tennis players who are in form represent the best value. So, check their recent wins and losses and pick players who are at the top of their game. You should also consider whether a player has recently returned from an injury, as they might take a while to get back into the swing of things.
Look for value in smaller events: While it’s tempting to always bet on the biggest table tennis tournaments, you can also find good value at some of the smaller tournaments at Stake.com. When there are fewer participants, it can sometimes be easier to pick a winner with good value odds.
Use promotions to boost your bankroll: Check out the current sports promotions at Stake.com. You can then use the funds to place your table tennis bets. If you’re a regular bettor at Stake.com, you can learn more about the exclusive rewards via the Stake VIP Club for regular bankroll boosts.

Tap into betting systems - There are various betting systems out there that will put bettors to the test, but teach them how to bankroll effectively. For example, such as the 1-2-3-6 system which is a progressive betting system where you increase and then decrease bets depending on wins. Or, there is the Kelly Criterion system which is more scientific in terms of determining the optimal size of a stake.

Live Betting for Table Tennis

Though most people place pre-match bets on table tennis, you can wait until a fixture begins before placing your wager. This is known as live or in-play betting. This can be advantageous, as it allows you to wait to see how each player is performing before backing them. When pitting live betting vs pre-match betting against each other, live betting adds a different dimension and is extremely popular as you can control when to cash out.

We offer many live table tennis markets at Stake.com, including who you think will win the next point and which player will win the match. Timing is important when betting live, so make sure you’re on the ball and ready to place your wager at the opportune moment.
