What is a Same Game Multi?
A Same Game Multi (SGM) lets you combine multiple bets from the same match into one wager. It’s the ultimate way to build your own story around a game, whether it’s the AFL, NRL, NBA, EPL, NFL, or NHL.
Think of it as stacking predictions like:
- Team to win
- Player to score
- Total points/goals
- Margin or line
All inside a single game. Every leg must win for your SGM to land, but that’s the thrill.
💡 Example: You back the Lions to win, Cameron to kick 3+ goals, and the total points to go over 170. If all three hit, your SGM pays out in one go.
How are Same Game Multi Odds Calculated?
Same Game Multi odds aren’t just multiplied together, they’re calculated based on how your legs relate to each other.
If your picks all help each other (e.g., backing a team to win, score over a total, and cover the line), the system lowers the overall odds because those outcomes are correlated.
Here’s a quick example:
SGM Example 1: Correlated Legs
- Penrith Panthers -13.5 @ 1.90
- Penrith Over 25.5 Points @ 1.85
- Melbourne Under 11.5 Points @ 2.05
➡️ SGM Odds: 3.54
Now, change one leg to go against the others:
SGM Example 2: Mixed Legs
- Penrith Panthers -13.5 @ 1.90
- Penrith Under 25.5 Points @ 1.85
- Melbourne Under 11.5 Points @ 2.05
➡️ SGM Odds: 7.93
That’s because it’s less likely all three results happen together.
In short: the less your legs line up, the higher the odds, but the lower the chance of winning.
