It's ok. I actually had 84 sats left not 74 so I put 75 sats on the packers which means I have now managed to ensure a guaranteed loss. Haha. Not totally sure how odds work based on betting early etc but at current odds I would win 570 sats if steelers win and 280 sats if the packers win but I bet a total of 575 sats.
Hopefully I got better odds when I bet steelers early.
I think with how early you put in that Steelers bet, You would actually get 640'ish if they win. The "multiplier" basically goes from doubling your profits to having no impact.

Yes, odds were definitely better when I took the Steelers. I wish it posted current payout potential next to your pending bets. I will track it when I place bets starting next week. It would be good to know if I am actually getting paid out the odds it says when I place the bet. I am channeling my inner degen here, just placing bets having no clue what I am doing.

You won't get the original odds. Those are how the pool would have been divvied up at that moment. This is an old English style betting pool, so the pool just gets divided up amongst the winners after the house takes its cut. The early betters get a bigger share per sat than the late betters.
