Back "Lay", Lay "Back"

[pugs]

This is of no consequence what so ever, and i hope i’m not just being think, again but......

...Why is it when you back a selection it says “Layer’s Odds”, “Layer’s Stake”. And when you lay a selection it says “Backer’s Odds”, “Backer’s Stake”.

I know laying can be deemed as “backing to lose”, but can backing a selection be deemed as “laying not to lose”.

And yes i am bored

Because when you place a back bet you are accommodating a layer and vise versa. The best price in the blue column is the best price being offered by a layer therefore it's the layer's odds.

Aha..... But i tend to place my "back" bets at either "lay price" or (lay price- 1 tick) so the odds are mine.


ALL mine i tell ya lol
