Table Tennis Betting Explained

Table tennis, also called whiff-whaff or ping-pong, is a racket sport that is played on a table rather than a court. The participants use a small racket to return a hollow ball over the net onto the opposing half of the table. When a player fails to do so, their opponent earns a point. Play can be very fast, so participants need lightning quick reflexes and plenty of stamina.

Table Tennis at the Summer Olympics

Table tennis was first introduced to the Seoul Olympics in 1988. There were singleS and doubles events for men and women. In 2008, the doubles events were replaced with a team event and mixed doubles was added to the 2020 Tokyo Games table tennis schedule, giving a total of five competitions for table tennis fans to enjoy. The Czech Republic, Germany, Hungary, and Austria were the early powerhouses in this sport, but since 1988, Chinese players have won 32 of the 37 golds that have been on offer.

At the 2024 Olympic Games in Paris, the table tennis events will be played between the 27th of July and the 10th of August. Below are the events on offer:

• 🏓 Singles (Men’s/Women’s)
• 🏓 Team (Men’s/Women’s)
• 🏓 Mixed Doubles (Mixed)

World Table Tennis Championships

When it comes to the best table tennis events, the World Table Tennis Championships sit at the top of the pile. In the table tennis world, this event is the equivalent of the FIFA World Cup. There are five events that take place at this competition, and these are:

• 🏓 Men’s Singles
• 🏓 Women’s Singles
• 🏓 Men’s Doubles
• 🏓 Women’s Doubles
• 🏓 Mixed Doubles

The above competitions are played in odd numbered years, while the World Team Table Tennis Championships take place in even numbered years. The first World Table Tennis Championships occurred in 1926, and Hungary dominated up until the 1950s, picking up 12 titles. Then, it was Japan’s time to dominate, and China has been dominating this sport since the 1960s. We do not see their dominance ending any time soon – China’s men’s and women’s team hold 23 titles each.

World Youth Championships

The ITTF World Youth Championship takes place every year and is for junior players under the ages of 15 and 19. This event consists of two team events and five individual events for both age groups. The first tournament, which is in knockout format, was played in 2003, and it will not come as a shock to find out that China have completely dominated, winning 97 gold, 49 silver, and 67 bronze medals. Japan are in second place with 84 medals, which highlights China’s dominance further.

Table Tennis Betting Markets

When you are betting on table tennis at top betting sites, such as Betiton UK, then you will have a nice range of table tennis betting markets that you will be able to put your hard-earned money on. However, some markets are more popular than others, and we are going to take you through these now.

Outright Winner

With this betting market, what you have to try and do is predict the player who will go on and win the whole event. This market sometimes comes with an each-way betting market, meaning that you can still make a bit of money should your selected player finish in second place.

Match Winner

If you do not want to bet on a player to win the whole event, then you can place a wager on the player who you think will go on to win a particular match. If your chosen player wins, you win. If they lose, you lose. It is that simple. Most table tennis matches will be the best of three of five sets.

Handicap Betting

There might be a time where you want to bet on the match winner, but when you check out the odds you see that they are not worth your time. This is because there is a perceived gulf in class between the two players. In this case, the odds for the favourite will be too short, while the chances of the underdog winning are too low. Handicap betting is useful here as you can give a theoretical disadvantage or advantage to one player to improve the odds.

Match Total: Even/Odd

All of the best bookies will give you the opportunity to wager on whether the final points tally in a game will be an odd or even number. It does not matter to you who the winner is, so long as the final points total matches your prediction of odd or even.

Over/Under Total Points

No matter the sport that you are placing a bet on, there will usually be some type o over/under total points bet that you can try your luck on. With this market, your bookie will give you a number such as 95.5, and then you have to decide whether the final points tall will be higher (over) or lower (under) that it.

Table Tennis Betting Odds Explained by Betiton UK

With regard to table tennis betting odds, there are three formats that you can opt to use at Betiton UK and these are decimal, fractional, and American. Decimal is the default at Betiton, but this can be changed in the top right of the page. For those who are new to sports betting, we are going to briefly explain each format.

Decimal

These are known as European odds as they are popular on the continent, and the number indicates the total payout for a winning bet. For instance, if you wager £10 on a player to win with odds of 7.00 and they do, you will get £70 back – £60 profit and your £10 stake.

Fractional

These are called British odds because they are popular in the United Kingdom. The number indicates the amount that can be won for every £1 that is wagered. For example, if you put down a £10 with odds of 7/1 and you win, you will receive £80 back, which would be your £10 stake and £70 profit.

American

American odds are popular among Americans, and with these odds you will see a – and + sign. The + tells us who the underdogs are and indicate the amount which can be won by betting $100. The – tells us who the favourites are, and the amount which you will need to stake to land $100.

Table Tennis Betting Tips by Betiton UK

While the table tennis betting rules are not that tricky to get to grips with, it is still vital that you do a lot of research to improve your chances of being successful. You can put down a random bet if you want, but this is not a table tennis betting strategy that we suggest. Below we are going to provide you with some top table tennis betting tips to always keep in mind.

• 👉 Check rankings and stats: Before you bet on someone to win, check out their rankings since higher ranked players will usually be better than lower-ranked ones. You should also check out head-to-head stats since this is a good indicator as to how future matches between the pair will turn out.
• 👉 Check out a player’s form: Class is permanent but form is temporary, so always check out how a player has been playing recently before putting a bet on them. If they have been on a losing streak, then bet on someone else.
• 👉 Pay attention to style of play: Some right-handed players will struggle against left-handed players, so find out this type of information before finalising a wager. Furthermore, some players use a grip called a penhold grip, and even top players, especially Europeans, can struggle against this. Asian players, on the other hand, sometimes struggle against the shakehold grip.
