Combos

A combo puts 2 to 6 picks together. Every pick has to happen, and the payout grows with each one you add.

The maths

Chances multiply. Three picks at 58%, 64% and 72% give a 0.58 × 0.64 × 0.72 = 26.7% chance that all three happen, so $10 wins $10 ÷ 0.267 = $37.42.

236% chance$27.78

413% chance$77.16
57.8% chance$128.60
64.7% chance$214.33

The rules

  • One pick per match or event. Picks from the same match move together (a home win makes “3 or more goals” likelier), so multiplying them would overstate the payout.
  • Every price is re-read on the server when you back the combo, so what you see in the slip is checked at the moment you post.
  • The combined chance must be at least 0.001%. Take out a long shot if it's refused.

How a combo settles

  • It loses as soon as any pick loses.
  • It wins once every pick has settled and none lost. The payout uses the picks that counted.
  • A cancelled market makes that pick void: it drops out and the rest still count. If every pick is void, the combo is void.
  • A right combo earns XP: about 10 ÷ the combined chance, up to 1,000.
