    You bet on a team. If they lose, you bet on the team the next day, but you bet twice as much. Continue til you win a unit

    chase means we are betting either on or against a team and depending on how long the chase is, that will be the amount of games we are "chasing". Some chases are as low as 2 game chases and as high as 6. Obviously, the more games you chase, the higher the risk.

    Here's an example:

    A 4 game chase on the Giants. If it loses game 1, it goes to game 2 and so on up until game 4. For each game that I lose, I chase to win back the following game plus my original profit of 1 unit. Here is a sample betting structure:

    betting structure:

    we are playing a 4 game chase to win 1 unit (from Stifler).

    example: (with consistent lines)
    Game 1: Bet line -170 , risk 1,7u to win 1u
    game lost, it moves to Game 2

    Game 2: Bet line -170 , risk 4,59u to win 2,7u[the lost amount on Game 1's bet + 1 unit]
    game lost, it moves to Game 3

    Game 3: Bet line -170 , risk 12,40u to win 7,29u[the lost amount on Game 1 & 2's bet + 1 unit]
    game lost, it moves to Game 4
    Game 4: Bet line -170 , risk 33,49u to win 19,69u[the lost amount on Game 1, 2, 3's bet + 1 unit]
    if Game 4 is a loser then -52,18 units overall, if Game 4 Bet wins (or any other) u win 1 unit

    I hope that helps explain things.
