Virtual Sports — What You Need to Know
Virtual Sports is sports betting powered by computer simulation rather than real matches. The outcome of each match or race is determined by an independently verified random number generator (RNG). At 174, virtual sports run continuously 24 hours a day — new football matches start every few minutes, with no need to wait for a season schedule or specific match day.
In 174's real-time sports section, you need to follow the match schedule and wait for results that can take 90 minutes or more. Virtual Sports delivers results within 3–5 minutes per round. That makes it a faster, more controlled option for players who want a sports betting experience without depending on what happens in the real world.
How to Read Odds & Bet Types
Virtual Sports at 174 uses decimal odds, which are straightforward to calculate. For example, if Team A has odds of 2.50 and you bet RM 20, your potential return is RM 50 (RM 20 × 2.50) — this includes your original stake, giving you a net profit of RM 30 if your pick is correct. Higher odds mean a lower probability of winning but a bigger payout.
| Bet Types | Description | Typical Odds Range |
|---|---|---|
| Win/Draw/Lose (1X2) | Pick the winner, a draw, or the losing team | 1.40 – 4.50 |
| Asian Handicap | Goal handicap given to the weaker team | 1.80 – 2.10 |
| Total Goals (Over/Under) | Predict whether the total goals will be over or under a set value | 1.75 – 2.05 |
| Race Winner (Win) | Pick the horse or car that will win the race | 2.00 – 15.00 |
Virtual Sports Available at 174
Computer-simulated football matches between teams with structured performance records. Each match runs for a few real-time minutes, with a 3D animated broadcast depicting the match action. A new match schedule is displayed automatically, and players can select their markets before each round begins.
Simulated horse racing featuring eight to twelve horses per race. Each horse has its own performance statistics that influence the displayed odds. The betting format mirrors real horse racing — win, place (finish in the top three), or exacta (first two horses in exact order).
A computer-simulated circuit race with six to eight competing cars. The simulation factors in dynamically changing conditions such as weather and track state, making each race feel distinct. Players can bet on the winner, podium finishers, or a head-to-head between two selected cars.
