To me, max bet on a parlay means 1k, since that's the max bet.
Like, if we're looking at the parlay calculator, there is no max payout that would disqualify a bet, so in that sense there is no max payout, though the most you'll get from me is 5k. So if you wager 1k on a parlay at 1:100000000 odds, the bet is auto cd'd. If you win, you get 5k. If you lose, you lose 1k.
So if you say "max" on a parlay, that's the same as wagering 1k to me. So please try to specify before puck drop how much you want to bet instead of just saying max unless you do intend on wagering 1k.
I will add that I understand your thinking and acknowledge that I should rephrase my rules to clarify this issue. I'll go ahead and send back the 1k that I charged you with losing. This is my fault due to the wording not being totally clear.
Well like there was no problem in my actual bet just a disagreement on max, I should still pay for the lost parlay, but according to parlay odds calculator the odds were roughly 10:1 counting the STL game as even as well as the over/unders, making my max bet 500, to win the possible 5k (It was initially my fault for not reading updated rules on the 5k max instead of 3k, which was why I guessed my bet would be 300)
I'm sending back 500, and I think we're on the same page now?
I don't really know how to avoid this in the future though if I want to make a bet for max payout. Maybe make it like we can figure out the odds for the parlay at the time of posting and make a bet to a max payout of 4k or 4.5k and the max you will pay out on a parlay is 5k, giving that bit of buffer for moving lines?
Idk just spitballin.
Wasn't trying to take advantage of anything or anything like that
As far as the bold part I figured there was only one max bet for any given team, logically speaking. The fact that you'll let us bet up to 1k but will only pay 5k regardless is just laziness lol
