    Why Americans always lay to win? "Risk" is much better option in my opinion..


    Some people say they're betting flat but If you're laying x to win, then you're not betting flat!

    Let's say you got 3 bets..

    Bet A -110
    Bet B +100
    Bet C -150
    Bet D -130


    If you lose Bet C and Bet D, your loss will be,

    -150
    -130

    +100
    +100


    P/L: -80$!

    but if you bet flat, using "risk" option,

    +91
    +100

    -100
    -100


    Your loss wil be only -9$.

    So don't lay 120 to win 100 or 110 to win 100. Just place 100$ to win 91$ (1.91, -110 American) or 100$ to win 80 (1.80, -125 American). This way, you will reduce the devastating effect of juice when you lost a bet.

    Use Decimal odds! Don't lay x to win.. Always bet flat+straight.
