>>17893104I cannot grugpost sadly, the art of grug eludes me, so I'll explain it as simply as possible.
Basically, all the bets from all options are summed up into a single pool. When an option wins, people who bet on that option win the share of the total pool based on their % contribution to it.
Example:
Let's say there's a bet that can be a 1 or 0.
Mr. A bet 4 million on 1. Mr. B bet 2 million on 1 and 2 million on 0. Mr. C bet 2 million on 0.
So, all in all, the total pool is 10 million.
Option 1 has Mr. A and B betting 4 million and 2 million respectively, for the total of 6 million.
Option 0 has Mr. B and C betting 2 million both, for the total of 4 million.
Thus, if 1 was going to win, then A would win 4/6 * 10 = 6.67m, and B would win 2/6 * 10 = 3.33m.
If 0 won, then B would win 2/4 * 10 = 5m, and A would win 2/4 * 10 = 5m.
Let's say 0 won. Then, the standings are as follows:
A lost 4 million.
B won 5 million, but his bets on 1 and 0 cost him 4 million total, so in the end his profit is just 1 million.
C won 5 million, and his bet on 0 cost him 2 million, so his total profit is 3 million.
As you can see, in the end, everything sums up to zero: Effectively A paid 3 million to C, and 1 million to B.
>>17893126Nothing stops you from going all out on one option. Betting on all options gives no advantage whatsoever, so if someone feels like they are winning by doing so, just know that it's the definition of a coping mechanism.
If you want to bet a lot on Mahjong, I'm more than happy to oblige.
