What is a system bet?
Your own system
Already a pro when it comes to combo bets?
A simple combo bet feels too boring? Want to try something new? Here’s the upgrade for you – the system bet.
In general: with a system bet, you select your system before placing the bet, e.g. 8 out of 10. This means you make a combination of 10 matches but allow yourself two mistakes. In the end, 8 out of 10 picks need to be correct for your bet slip to win.
We’ll explain the system bet using the system 2 out of 3 (2/3):
In this example, you select three football (soccer) matches for your bet slip. You place bets on the following outcomes:
- Win Bayern Munich at odds of 2.00
- Win Arsenal at odds of 1.50
- Win Barcelona at odds of 1.70
2 out of 3 now means: all possible two-combo bets from these three outcomes are placed. In this 2/3 system bet, the possible combinations are:
- Bet 1: Bayern win (odds 2.00) + Arsenal win (odds 1.50)
- Bet 2: Bayern win (odds 2.00) + Barcelona win (odds 1.70)
- Bet 3: Arsenal win (odds 1.50) + Barcelona win (odds 1.70)
A total stake of €30 in this case means you are placing three two-combo bets with a stake of €10 each.
Now let’s assume the following results:
- Bayern wins.
- Arsenal loses.
- Barcelona wins.
Your payout is calculated as follows:
For your correctly predicted combination (Bet 2 above), you receive:
€10 stake × Bayern odds 2.00 × Barcelona odds 1.70 = €34 credited to your betting account.
All clear? Then here comes another special feature – basically an extension of the extension:
