How to Use This Calculator
Enter stake on leg A, decimal odds for A, and decimal odds for leg B (the bet that rides if A wins). The tool estimates potential profit from B if A wins first—simplified versus full reverse-if rules.
Decimal odds
All prices in European decimal format.
Order matters
Leg A must win before leg B action activates in this toy model.
Book rules
Real reverse bets have idiosyncratic limits—verify ticket text.
Compare to parlay
Parlay ties both legs; conditional bets only risk full parlay loss patterns sometimes—read house rules.
Chained Outcomes
If A wins: profitA = stake × (o1−1); roll that amount into notional for B profit ≈ profitA × (o2−1)
Examples
Example 1 — Defaults
Stake 50, A = 2.00, B = 2.20. If A wins, profit A = 50; potential from B ≈ 50 × 1.2 = 60—match the app.
Example 2 — Short favorite A
Lower o1 shrinks roll for B—sensitivity test both legs.
Example 3 — Use IF bet page
If bet uses the same engine—pick the label that matches your book’s wording.
Frequently Asked Questions
