Betting On Sheep Races
Ready to try your luck and test your instincts? Within Sheep Racing, Betting serves as the gateway to a deeper engagement with the races. Whether you're an experienced bettor or new to the concept, this section allows you to participate actively in the races.
Practice Runs
Before the actual race, you have the option to watch a practice run, providing valuable insights into what to expect. For a single Scope, you can access this feature and view demo versions of races. Utilize this opportunity to familiarize yourself with the tracks, refine your skills, and adapt strategies to improve your racing proficiency.
The odds for each individual sheep are also factored into practice runs, taking into account their attributes and the prevailing weather conditions. However, it's important to keep in mind that the results of the real event may differ from those of the simulation.
Odds
The concept of odds is essential in Sheep Racing, and it's important to understand how they work.
Initial Odds: Initial Odds represent the game's default setting and serve as the starting point for the race. These opening odds are calculated based on what the bookmaker predicts will happen, drawing from approximately 50 Practice Runs. As such, they offer a reliable initial reference point for the race.
Changing Odds: As more players place their bets, the dynamics of the book change. Consequently, the bookmaker must adjust the odds to reflect the evolving betting patterns. You can track these changes by toggling the "Current Odds" indicator, which provides real-time updates on the odds for each contender in the race.
Placing Bets
In Sheep Racing, there are two exciting ways to try your luck and potentially earn valuable rewards:
Beanz Betting
Beanz Betting lets you put your Seasonal Beanz on the line, offering a chance to grow your Beanz stash. It's a fun way to engage in the races and reap rewards based on your predictions. Beanz Betting is a lively and accessible option, perfect for active participation in the races. Keep in mind that there's a betting limit – you can wager a maximum of 100 Seasonal Beanz on a single race. So, choose your bets wisely!
Ticket Betting
Ticket Betting uses specialized betting tickets as your currency for wagers. By using these tickets, you can potentially win MARD tokens, elevating the excitement of your betting strategy. It's important to know that Ticket Races are less common than Beanz Races, but they come with more substantial rewards, making them a top choice for those aiming to maximize their winnings. There's no betting limit on Ticket Races, as long as you have enough tickets to place your bets!
