To answer the first question, +0.5 and +1 means your bet gets cut in half like Ace Ace just suggested. If you bet $1000 on +0.5 and +1 at +100 (something you can't find anymore, but it's an easy math example), you have bet $500 on the team +0.5 and $500 on the team +1 (both are to win $500). If the team you are betting on +0.5 and +1 wins or draws, you win both bets. If they lose by 1 goal, you lose half your bet. If they lose by 2 or more goals, you lose the entire bet.
Ace, it appears as though you are "capping wise" on the right side of this wager. Minsk has been disappointing this year, in 8th place in their league, but since firing their previous manager, have won two out of three including knocking off the team in 2nd in their league. The problem that Minsk runs into is knowing that they have to score today to have any chances of going through. Should they be successful, both you and them should be celebrating. But should they fail, Anorthosis will be advancing to round two of the competition. Anorthosis is missing some players on their squad that were around in leg 1 in Minsk and the first leg was Anothosis's first go around with these players while Minsk in is mid-season form...
But to suggest that this game is rigged up once again is a bit concerning and baffling. Again, handicapping wise, I think you were on the right side at +1, as the worst case here is likely Anorthosis by a single goal (as if they score in this match, they know the worst case scenario is that they go to extra time unless they lose 2-1... but if they give up a goal, they know they have to win the match to assure advancing into round 2... if they give up two goals in the match, they have to net at least 3 to advance). But this games means a ton to both sides in terms of money, and just the thought of a Champion's League game being fixed... the greatest competition in Europe... makes me scratch my head.
Hope things turn out well for you, as I still believe you're on the right side... but not through a "fix"... so I hope it was someone telling you about capping and not a "fix"

All info really came from this article...
Cypriot champions Anorthosis Famagusta FC are confident they can see off FC Dinamo Minsk and reach the UEFA Champions League second qualifying round where Turkish side Trabzonspor await.
Fitness boost
The Nicosia outfit earned a 1-1 draw in Belarus last week, and influential player-coach Temur Ketsbaia believes there is more to come from his team. "We weren't at our best in the first game in Minsk," the former AEK Athens FC and Newcastle United FC midfielder said. "That's perfectly normal considering it was our first competitive game [of the season].
Home comforts
"This time around, Anorthosis will be a different team because we're fitter, know our opponents better, and we're at home so our fans will be on our side." They did fine without their vocal support in Minsk last week, where Nikos Frousos gave them the lead on the stroke of half-time. Although Dinamo defender Dzmitri Lentsevich later equalised, the away goal could prove crucial.
Frousos absence
Greek striker Frousos went off injured and is still sidelined so Klimenti Tsitaishvili will come into the side. "Dinamo are more ready than us in terms of match fitness," Ketsbaia continued. "We have just one game under our belts but I believe that if we stay focused and work hard we'll qualify."
Fitness disparities
Dinamo's superior fitness could play a part in the sweltering heat of the Cypriot capital, however, as the Dinamo squad should be near their peak with the Belarussian Premier League already at its halfway stage. They lie a disappointing eighth though, a position that led to the sacking of coach Aleksandr Bashmakov.
Riabokon run
Ukrainian Olexandr Riabokon has been installed and the club have won two out of three since his arrival. Saturday's 5-2 win against FC Dnepr-Transmash Mogilev provides a welcome boost ahead of tonight's tie and a continuation of that form could seal their progress.
Tsygalko return
Riabokon will look to build from the back where goalkeeper Yuri Tsygalko, recently returned from a successful loan spell at Kazakhstan outfit FC Vostok, could be given the opportunity to add to his 574 minutes without conceding. Should that figure become 664, Dinamo may well be celebrating victory.

I DID NOT SAID THE GAME WAS RIGGED UP(AND WILL NOT SAY ANYTHING ABOUT FIX OR DONE DEALS AGAIN)( IF THAT KIND OF THING HAPPEN AND IF I KNEW ABOUT IT...I WOULD NOT USE THOSE WORDS AGAIN).......JUST GOT IT FROM SOMEONE I TRUST......

Once again, from a handicapping standpoint, if that's the standpoint you're coming from, in my eyes is correct.
But to insinuate such just needs a clarifier that this is the greatest competition in Europe, not some dipshit game in the lower levels of Denmark.
"I HAVE TO THINK SOMETHING UP....DONT YOU..."
Yeah, something's up... good capping on a poor line... line should probably be +0.5 at +100 or so.

Minsk needs to score, but Anthroposis doesn't... unless Minsk scores first... so that's a lot of ifs for a wager at -110... I'd venture to say no since the teams played to 1-1 in the first leg, but I wouldn't say that under is the right play either... you're better served asking a legit soccer capper. I only read the article on the game. Someone else has to know more about these teams than I do. Maybe Markie Mark can give you a better answer.
