Rules cortesy of WSEX....................

In the case of Action-Reverse wagers in which $110 is wagered to win $100, the Wager Amount is the amount that can be won per wager.

Examples:

• A 2-play Action-Reverse using 2 ‘$110 to win $100’ plays, depending on the outcomes, could involve between 2 and 4 individual wagers.
• A 3-play Action-Reverse using 3 ‘$110 to win $100’ plays, depending on the outcomes, could involve between 6 and 12 individual wagers.

With a $100 Action-Reverse wager, it is assumed that you are actually risking $110 to win $100 per individual wager. Therefore, the result of a 2-play $100 Action-Reverse wager could be -$220, +$400, or somewhere in between.

Your maximum potential loss amount will be restricted from your account at the time you place the wager. When all corresponding games have finished, the restricted cash will become unrestricted, and the appropriate win or loss amount will be applied to your account.

In the event that a game is cancelled, any Action-Reverse wagers with plays on the cancelled game will be reduced. A 3-play $100 Action-Reverse wager will become a 2-play $100 Action-Reverse wager. A 2-play $100 Action-Reverse wager will become a straight bet at $110 to win $100. If all plays are cancelled, you will have no action and your restricted amount will be immediately refunded.

this is how i think it works :

you pick 2 teams . bet 100 .

if both teams win you win 400 .

if both teams lose you lose 220 . basically both teams at 110.

if you win 1 and lose 1 , i think you lose 110 + juice on the other side of 10 for a loss of 120 .

not sure how a push factors in..

its parlay like , but better payout with a win and worse loss when going 0-2.

So lets say i want a 2 team acrev and i want to bet a grand my worse scenerio is a loss of 2200 and my max win would be 4 gs is that right?

have you ever gone 0-2 ?

Action Reverse is basically making if bets with 2 teams.

Bet Team A, if win bet Team B
Bet Team B, if win Bet Team A
You are just reversing the order of the if bets, hence Action Reverse.

Thats why if 1 wins, you lose double the vig.

Lets say Team A wins, and Team B loses.

Bet One Team A wins (+100), Team B Loses (-110) $-10
Bet Two Team B Loses (-110) $-110
$-120 Total.

If both Teams Win it would be +200 on each bet or $400 total.

Not necesarily a great way to wager imo.

Hope I didnt confuse you more.

Thanks. How come years ago when we called the local book they never had this bet is it something new?

They've always been around on the east coast. I remember 15 years ago going to Vegas and asking the guy at the sportsbook if I could bet one. He turns around and asks me "You're from NY aren't you? We don't have those out here."

I use to like playing those if I liked two dogs in baseball.

Tony i never remember them but then again i have a bad memory!! Good luck today on your action!!

Right now im looking to reverse my action i have the over in KC game can that be done??
