  • Hi,

    I'm trying to resolve the following equation to know the amount I have to bet in a hand to recover currently lost money:

    x * y = x + last_lost --> I have to isolate x variable.

    where:

    x = amount to bet
    y = favourite's back price (or other hand's back price)
    last_lost = money lost since last win

    So for example if my currently lost money is 20$ and the favourite's back price in a round is 1.5 the equation tells me that:

    40 * 1.5 = 40 + 20 --> 60 = 60 --> It means, x = 40, I have to beat 40$ to 1.5 back price in order to recover my lost money.

    But I cannot access (or I don't know how) the favourite's back price (or other hand's back price) in the amount field of the trigger, at least I don't find any available variable with this information.

    How can I access this information in that field?

    Regards.

  • It's a prefix:
    s_1_back_price for the first (top) runner
    h_1_back_price for the favourite
    See "Selection-Related Variables" (bottom) topic of the help file.
    If your selection is the favourite (so you place bet on it) it can be just back_price.
