No difference tbh. Online just means you don't have to go outside.

Oh and it will take three days for the money to into your account when you withdraw your winnings.

FYI

One online bet shouldnt make a difference but...................

Done something so stupied but its Wrestlemania
put 50 euro on Team Johnny (will get 64 back if win)
put 25 euro on Team Long (will get 81 back if win)

TEAM LONG PLEASE WIN.

So you've bet €75 to win €6 or lose €11?

What is the idea in a double? Like is the amount (say a fiver) split between the two but you only get the winnings if both win?

More or less but you get an improvement to the odds over two single bets at €2.50 a pop.

Right, I'll try to explain better.

Lets say you have two matches and both of them are 4 to 1.

You could put a fiver on each match and if they both won then you would get €50 quid back. But you could also get €25 back if only one won.

If you put a tenner on both of them as a double then you would get say €70 back if they both won. Of course the downside is that if one loses then you get nothing.

EDIT : Treble is the same as a double. I'm not sure but Patent and Trixie sound like those fancy bets that the bookies use to rob people.

They have the matches as "draw, no bet" so would that mean IF cena and rock ends in a double dq i get nothing if i use the treble?

I'm going to go with a fiver double on sheamo and orton and the same separate double on taker and cena.

Undertaker was 1/8 yesterday but is 1/4 today. Who the hell is backing HHH?

What you got to remember the stakes you can are low so the people backing hhh are only betting very small and are probably doing what is known in the industry as speculative bets. Powers won't be losing to much money here lads.

Ok i stuck on a tenner double on taker and cena, and a triple on punk/orton/sheamo.

I have a feeling punk is gonna screw me over on that one.

Its annoying that you can't do the Team Johnny and The Undertaker double, basically free money.

How is betting on Team Johnny free money? Teddy Long has been Smackdown GM for 8 years and John Laurinaitis has an off-screen job, the match can easily go either way.

If you put a fiver on a double on 2 matches at 4/1, then you'll win (€5 *4) + €5 original stake = €25.

Match B, you'll have (€25 * 4) + €25 stake = €125 total poteltial winnings. You need both to win though.

Thinkin of puttin 50 euro on a six match accumulator,

CM Punk 1/2
John Cena 4/5
The Undertaker 1/5
Sheamus 8/15
Maria Menounos & Kelly Kelly 1/4
Kane 5/2


Total stake: 50.00
Potential returns: 1086.75

What u think?

Punk is the dodgy one there imo.
I can see Jericho winning the match without winning the title, giving him the psychological edge over Punk and building the feud nicely

I read somewhere on the web that

On a novelty market (yes, it's a novelty market), I wouldn't expect any bookie to A - Allow Multiples, or B - Make themselves liable for more than €50-€100

Very face heavy. Fair enough it's WrestleMania but I'd expect at least one heel winner in the main events. Although I suppose John Cena might count as a heel tonight. The lack of other face winners increases the chances of Kane winning though and in fairness not much point having Kane around if he keeps jobbing to everyone.

Its all he has done for most of his career, one more job won't do him any harm:P

Accumulators are allowed and the max stake is €140, on Paddy Power anyway.

Imagine how much money the bookies will make if Taker/Trips ends in a draw/no-contest. Undertaker remains 19-0 and the streak goes on without him actually winning, this thread would explode :pac:
