A system bet, also known as a combination bet, is a type of sports wager that allows you to cover multiple combinations of selections within a single bet. With a system bet, you can choose a specific number of selections and the number of combinations you want to cover. Unlike a parlay, you can win a system bet even if not all of your selections are correct.

Key features of a system bet:
Multiple Combinations: In a system bet, you select three or more individual bets and combine them into various combinations. The number of combinations is determined by the system you choose.
Increased Winning Chances: One of the main advantages of a system bet is that you can still win, even if not all of your selections are correct. The more combinations you cover, the greater your chances of winning.
Higher Cost: Because a system bet involves multiple combinations, the cost of the bet is higher than a regular single bet or parlay.
Lower Payouts: While a system bet increases your chances of winning, the potential payout for each combination is lower compared to a single bet or parlay. However, the total payout from multiple winning combinations can still be significant.
Example: Let's say you have selected five individual bets (A, B, C, D, and E), and you choose to place a system bet with three combinations. Your system bet would include the following combinations: ABC, ABD, and ABE. If at least two of the selections (A, B, C, D, or E) are correct, you would win at least one of the combinations and receive a payout for that winning combination.
System bets offer a balance between risk and reward, allowing bettors to cover multiple outcomes and increase their winning chances while still having the potential to win even if not all selections are correct. It's essential to carefully consider your selections and the number of combinations you choose in a system bet to maximize your betting strategy and potential profits.
