Here ya go

CREATING -1 RUNLINE

100/130 = 0.769 (use 130 because that's the money line)
0.769 + 1.0 = 1.769
100/1.769 = 56.53
That means 56.53 is your money line wager on the Angels at -130. That bet would yield a profit of 43.25. Then you would place a bet of 43.25 on the Angels (-1.5) at +160. That bet would yield a profit of 69.20. Your overall card would look like this:

Straight bet (Angels -130): bet 56.53 to win 43.25.
Run line bet (Angels -1.5, +160): bet 43.25 to win 69.20.
Total bet (Angels -1): bet 100 to win 112.45.

You have created a +112 Dog instead of a -130 Fav

Good luck in your wagers!
