wagering question about reverse bets

[jademan]

Whatever.


What does $100 parlay pay???

$260 most books

 

[jademan]

$260 most books

but you only have to risk once - not on the reverse

$260 most books

So the $100 reverse pays more????????

THAT'S THE DIFFERENCE!!!!!!! There's not one better then the other. The only way a reverse screws you, is if you lose both!!!!


Risk to payout is the same!!!!!

So the $100 reverse pays more????????

no
because on on $100 reverse you are risking $100 twice = $200 + 20 in juice final result $220 to win $400 = $110 to win $200

with a parlay you risk $100 once to win $260

what you are not understanding is on a reverse you pay the risk going forward and on the reverse it is like an exacta box in horses - 3 horses $ cost you $30 there are 6 combinations

You're not getting it. I'm losing my mind.

Is this not true??? You risk more with a reverse over a parlay to win more.

There's no reason. It's a simple thing.


Bottom line. Your RISKING more with a reverse to WIN more compared to a parlay.

You are risking more with a reverse to win less as compared to a parlay

although there is a bit less risk-------- if your forward bet loses you have no action on the reverse therefore not paying the risk on the reverse------ if your forward bet wins you get paid (better than the payout for a straight bet) and the reverse goes - you pay the risk again for the reverse------- if the reverse loses you still get paid on the forward but you lose on the reverse-----------if the reverse also wins you have paid the risk twice and your win is less than that of the same risk and win of a parlay.
