re: Help me with this bet

Break it down for me…. Assuming Arizona vs Brewers Brewers vs Dodgers Brewers vs Braves I assume betting $1000 on AZ and if they lose I’m down 1k but still have the Brewers bet. So now I bet $3k on dodgers…. And if they lose I’m down $4k but still have brewers bet. Then bet 5k on braves… and if I lose I’m down 9k but still have brewera bet?

Your proposal doesn’t account for the fact the Brewers have to win the World Series. (Based on your op).

You’d enter the World Series $9000 down, with a potential to win $10,800 on the Brewers for a net $1800. If the Brewers lose the World Series you’d be down $9050.

If did Brewers vs….

Arizona $600 ($300 > just cashing out now=$600) or brewers Alive

LA $1300 ($$400> just cashing out = $700) or Brewers Alive

ATL $2700 ($500 > just cashing out now = $800) or Brewers Alive

AL $5500 ($600 > just cashing out now = $900) or Brewers win $10,800 - 10,100, which is $700 (or $400 > just cashing out now)

BUT - that’s assuming you could get even money bets on all those other teams, where you probably can’t on the Dodgers and Braves….


So just my .02…either let the whole thing ride to win the big prize….OR cash in now for the $300, take $100 profit and bet $200 to win WS at 24-1
