IF Bets Explained

IF Win bets are great options for money man­age­ment. You bet a fixed amount on one team, if that team wins, then the same amount as your orig­i­nal bet is placed on a dif­fer­ent team of your choice.

Exam­ple: You have a 2 team IF Win Bet for $11 on the Bears and Giants. If the Bears win, you risked $11 to win $10 and now another $11 wager is placed on the Giants. If they win, then you win another $10 for a total of $20 in win­nings. If the Giants lose, then you have lost $1 because you won $10 on the Bears and you lost $11 on the Giants. If the Bears lose, then you have lost your orig­i­nal $11 and there is no bet on the Giants.

Exam­ple of a four team IF bet:

	Bears	Giants	Rams	Cow­boys	Grand Total
Risk	$11	$11	$11	$11	$11
To Win	$10	$10	$10	$10
Sce­nario 1	Win	Win	Win	Win
Result	+$10	+$10	+$10	+$10	+$40
Sce­nario 2	Win	Win	Win	Lose
Result	+$10	+$10	+$10	-$11	+$19
Sce­nario 3	Win	Win	Lose	No Bet
Result	+$10	+$10	-$11		+$9
Sce­nario 4	Win	Lose	No Bet	No Bet
Result	+$10	-$11			-$1
Sce­nario 5	Lose	No Bet	No Bet	No Bet
Result	-$11				-$11

The first wager has to win for you to have action on the remain­ing wagers. If the first wager loses, there is No Action there­after. Place 2 to 7 teams in an IF Win bet.

How is an If Action Bet Different?

The sim­ple dif­fer­ence between an IF Win bet and an IF Action bet is in an IF Win bet the first wager has to WIN for the next wager to have action. In an IF Action bet each wager must WIN or PUSH (tie) for the next wager to have action. The PUSH (tie) would result in nei­ther a win nor a loss for you on that par­tic­u­lar game and we would con­tinue on to the next wager in your bet, whereas, in an IF Win bet the bet would have been stopped at the Push.
