  2. Go into your betting slip and scroll to the bottom, looking out for the Multi Bet title. 
  3. Under the Multi Bet title, you will see the accumulated odds for your combined selections. You then place the stake that you would like to lay for your Multi Bet.

How are Basketball Multi Bets calculated?


Basketball Multi bets are calculated based on the order in which the legs conclude. The payout generated from each leg serves as the stake for the next leg in your bet.

For Example:

If your bets are as follows-

Chicago Bulls Win @ 2.00
Orlando Magic -6.5 Line @ 1.95
Brisbane Bullets Win @ 1.90

The math would be as simple as 2.00 x 1.95 x 1.90 = 7.41

Therefore, if you put 5 bucks on it your return would be as follows:

5 x 7.41 =  37.05 return

Basketball Same Game Multi


A Basketball same game multi is when you combine multiple legs from the same Basketball game to increase the odds. If all of the legs win you will enjoy a return, however, if one leg loses you will not win your bet. 

There are a wide variety of Basketball betting markets that can be combined in your Basketball same game multi. Below is a list of the most popular Basketball betting markets that can be added in a Basketball SGM.

How to place a Basketball Same Game Multi


The process of placing a Basketball same game multi may vary slightly, however, the basic steps are as follows.

  1. Simply go into the game you wish to place a SGM on and make your selections, some bookmakers may have a specific tab for Same Game Multis.
  2. Once you have added all of the legs you wish to bet on, go to the bet slip.
  3. Here you may find a tab that says ‘Same Game Multi’ or ‘Combination’, alternatively you may need to scroll to the bottom of the bet slip where it will give you Same Game Multi odds for the legs that can be included.
  4. Place the stake you wish to bet and click the Place Bet button.
  5. Enjoy the match and follow your legs.

How are Basketball Same Game Multi odds calculated?


A Basketball Same Game Multi is calculated on the correlation between each leg and its probability in relation to the other legs in the bet. 

Let’s say that you are backing:

Line- Denver Nuggets -4.5  @ 1.90
Game Total - Over 195.5 points @ 1.85
Steph Curry - Over 7 Three-Pointers @ 2.05

The SGM odds will be calculated based on the probability of all three legs winning in the same match.
