A reverse wager is the same as two if win wagers. This means that if wager A wins, the bet goes to wager B. Likewise, if wager B wins, the bet goes to wager A. On the other hand, if wager A loses, the bet does not go to wager B. And again, if wager B loses, the bet does not go to wager A. If wager A wins, the bet goes to wager B, but if wager B loses, the bet does not go to wager A.
All standard reverse bets are double action, therefore, in the event of a tie, the bet is still active. Let us look at each of the following examples :
|
Example One |
Example Two |
Example Three |
| Broncos -7 (Win) | Broncos -7 (Win) | Broncos -7 (Win) |
| If – Win | If – Win | If – Win |
| Seattle -3 (Win) | Seattle -3 (Lose) | Seattle -3 (Lose) |
| Seattle -3 (Win) | Seattle -3 (Lose) | Seattle -3 (Lose) |
| If – Win | If – Win | If – Win |
| Broncos -7 (Win) | Broncos -7 (Lose) | Broncos -7 (Lose) |
In example one, with a stake of $220.00, the player would take home $400.00.
In example two, with a stake of $220.00, the player would lose $120.00.
In example three, with a stake of $220.00, the player would lose $220.00
