Three-way handicap betting gives bettors the opportunity to bet on the handicap tie option. Selecting the handicap tie option is effectively betting on the match finishing in a victory for the team receiving the virtual deficit (-1 etc.) by the exact winning margin offered. Example of a three-way handicap bet. New handicaps require 3 18-hole scores to be submitted (or any combination of 9 and 18-hole scores totaling 54 holes played) using a 'Temporary Daily Handicap' of 36 for men or 45 for women in order to calculate the necessary 'sloped played to' results. Each full stone of handicap on a 13×13 board is in any case probably equivalent to about 2.5 to 3 ranks, and each full stone on a 9×9 board is equivalent to about 6 ranks. For example, if the appropriate handicap is 9 (i.e., 8.5) stones on a 19×19 board, the handicap between those two players is reduced to 4 (because 3.5 × 2.5 = 8.75.
