The term “Under 2.25” refers to a quarter-line Asian Total Under bet. This type of wager is divided into two fractional totals — Under 2 and Under 2.5 — with the stake split equally between them. In practice, if two or fewer goals (or points) are scored, the bet wins in full. If exactly two are scored, half the stake is refunded and half wins; and if three or more are scored, the entire bet loses.
