Some books have team A to win, yes or no. Team B to win , yes or no. Then a draw bet. Wouldn't betting on team A to win be the same as betting on team B to lose, keeping in mind if the game ends in a draw both of those bets lose? In other words wouldn't betting "yes" on team A be the same as betting "no" on team B? Since the odds can be so drastically different for the two bets I have to be missing something here. Any help understanding this would be appreciated. Thx

If you bet "yes" on Team A, you:
win if team A wins.
lose if team B wins or the game ends in a tie.

If you bet "no" on team B, you:
win if team A wins or the game ends in a tie.
you lose if team b wins.

So there is a difference between both bets in case of a tie.

Question here also, when will the individual groups be won?
