are if bets better then parleys

[sjelveh]

2 team parley pays 2.5 100 to win 250=350

2 team if bet would pay 100 to win

100 to win 90 if bet that game 190 to 170win = 360

is that right

Single Action If-Bets (Win Only)

A Single Action If-Bet wager is an excellent choice for money management. As with any if-bet, a series of games is chosen by the player. The player decides the order of action and the amount wagered for each game within the If-Bet at the time the If-Bet is placed. For our purposes here, we'll make the order 1) Game A, 2) Game B, and 3) Game C (a 3-team If-Bet). A wager amount is placed on the first game, Game A in this case. If game A wins, and only wins, the player receives his/her winnings and another fixed wager up to the amount originally wagered on Game A will be placed on Game B. If game B wins, and only wins, the player receives his/her winnings and another fixed wager up to the amount originally wagered on Game B will be placed on Game C. If-Bets can be placed on no more than 3 teams. When one of the teams loses, the wagered amount on that game will be lost and no subsequent games will be played. Using the example from above, if $50 is placed on Game A and the player loses, the $50 will be lost and no action will be granted on Games B or C. If the game pushes or is cancelled, the money will be refunded and all subsequent wagers will be cancelled. You cannot have duplicate teams in the same Single-Action If-Bet.

i know what a if bet is but whats the answear to my question is a 2 team if bet better then a 2 team parley

You got your answer in JJ's post.

The amount of your wager is not doubled in an if bet. It is the same wager.

$100 on team A
If win, collect winnings and re-invest $100 on Team B

If Bet, risk 100 to win 180 (2 teams)
2-team parlay, risk 100 to win 250 (depending of book odds)

Yes, you can bet your winnings on your next bet, if you wish.

Team A, bet $100 to win $90
If Win, bet $190 to win $170 on Team B

Somebody explain to me what an "if-bet" is please.

[sjelveh]

Yes, you can bet your winnings on your next bet, if you wish.

Team A, bet $100 to win $90
If Win, bet $190 to win $170 on Team B

Max

well then you have 100 to win 250= 350 on a two team parley

then you have 100 to win 90 190 two win 170= 360 so why would you ever do a two team parley

[Max Levine]

I wrote the figure you had in your first post. The end result is actually the same.

Sjelveh, If Bets are good for money management. Let's say, for instance, you wanna bet 2 teams who are playing at the same time but only want to bet $100 (or only have that amount in your account). You can use the If Bet, placing $100 on team A. If it wins, you collect the winnings and bet $100 on team B. If you bet both your winnings and wager on the 2nd game, you just end up with a 2-team parlay.
