It occurs to me that I don't really understand what this means. -- (link) - Beryllium Feb 16, 19:01 7

  - And just as Reagan said, you'd win 100 on a $115 bet--so total of $215 would be coming back to you, after you won -- nm - Flavorize Feb 16, 23:09
- No, it means that you'll get 100 back on a 115 bet if they win. -- nm - Reagen Feb 16, 19:07 4
  - $100 profit, right? Not a loss of $15? :) -- nm - Beryllium Feb 16, 19:09 3
