    Default Sportbetting question, i need an answer.

    Hi, i'm still a newbie.
    I want to bet on football and i think betting on 2 options is the most reliable?
    For example:
    Barcelona - Real Madrid 1x2
    I bet on €5 on 1 + €5 x = total stake is €10 = possible win for example €35
    If Barcelona wins or makes a draw, i recieve the whole amount (€35) or a piece of it?

    I need to know this.
    Sorry for my bad english...

    Thanks guys.

    I dont understand the question. Are you saying 5euro on barcelona and 5 euro on madrid ? ( this is known in the uk as a double, then both need to win ) OR 5e win and 5e draw on barcelona? which would only pay the win odds OR the draw odds
    A little more info would help. ty
    Your missing the point friend, unless of course your displaying a sense of humour, of which i dont appreciate.

    There's nothing to stop you betting on two outcomes, ie Barcelona win or Madrid draw. You'll need to bet a pretty hefty stake though -- say Barca are 4/5 to win and the draw is 3/1 and you bet £2.50 on Barca and £1 on the draw (£3.50 total stake). If Barca win, you get £4.50 back (£2 winnings plus your £2.50 stake) -- profit of one pound. If it's a draw you get £4.00 back (£3 winnings plus your £1 stake) -- profit of 50p. If Madrid win -- not beyond the realms of possibility -- you lose £3.50.

    So you need to bet sizeable amounts of money to make it worthwhile and cover your losses when they happen, which they will.
