How to use FML Bets
« on: September 24, 2013, 05:36:17 pm »
:FMLN:

Since we have a lot of new players, I thought I'd give a quick refresher on what FML bets is, and how to use it.  FML bets is in essence a way to gamble fake money on players.  You choose a match and bet an amount of gold on that player.  If they win you win.  You start with 100 gold, and if you lose all your gold you'll be reset to 50.  Betting is very easy.  Simply click the "bet" hyperlinks on the calendar above this.  Each match has a bet link that can be clicked on to access the betting menu for that match.

The standings can be found on the right side of the page below the season standings.  You can also view the full standings for bets here: http://ffamasters.net/index.php?page=14

If you have any questions please feel free to ask!

how many points does the winner receive? If the Payout is for example 0.55 for wan and he wins, do I really get only 55 points if I bet 100 on him? That doesn't sound like a good deal.

Nope , if you bet 100 on someone u get atleast 100 back, depends on how many dollars are better and on who. I dont know the exact formula though.

In that instance you would receive 155 back.  So when you win you make back the 100 + whatever the odds are giving you.

Just spent 20 seconds looking at it


Here was the payout for P15

  Seksi         240                                   1.05   :1
  toy0ta         100                                   3.91   :1
  Jey_s_TeArS    31                                 14.84   :1
  svedirko          120                                   3.09   :1


So if your person won you take how much you bet  (say jey, 31, then multiply it by 14.84.

If jey had won, whoever bet that 31 would have 460 (winnings) + 31 (initial bet)

I bet 100 on toyota  so I won 3.91 x 100 + 100(initial)  so i have 491
