First of all, you have to make a straight bet before you can make an if bet. Why not just have an if bet button like every other book????

Then you can't put a 9pm game before a 7pm game.

Then you can't risk the same amount for each bet.


WHAT IS THIS??????:ohno:

I'm just using them because of the ease with the credit card deposits.

Yes that rule about not being able to list the later starting game 1st in your if bet is a major pain in the ass.
This rule applies for VIP, Gameday, and Nine, which are all under the same parent company. This rule screwed me last night. :ughhh:

as long as the 1st game you like has 1/2 in the spread you can play that game straight risking $52 then parlay the 2 games for $58 comes out about the same it cost you like $2 in profit if you win both games but that is 1 way around your problem

52 wins 47.27

58 parlay wins 150.80

win 1st game lose the parlay you lose 10.73 instead of normal 10

win both games you win 198.07 instead of normal 200


you can you this method for any amount just change the numbers

Honestly, I don't know how you think that is similar to an if win bet. It's different in a few ways.

Based on the same $110, playing a three team "if win bet", risking $110 on each play, would pay $300 if you hit all three.

One thing to note is that the first part of the if wager must win in order for action to continue on the 2nd part. If the top game pushes, it ends there.

In essence, their setup is similar to BetJamaica's rolling wager with a few exceptions. These are, (1) the ability for a wager to continue on a push. (2) The ability to put a game that starts earlier in the back of the if. (3) VIP has the ability to use leftover "risk" funds from to top half of an if wager in a 2nd or 3rd if wager. BetJam does not.

Team A -1- game starts at 9pm

so you play Team A straight -1- for 52-47

then you playa fucking parlay Team A and B 58 to win the rest it equals all but $2
