Integral Systems
The 'parachute' for your betting doubts. Cover multiple outcomes on the same match and increase your winning chances without lowering the odds.
Idea Centrale
"An Integral System is like playing multiple betslips at the same time to cover your doubts on a match. Use this system if you are undecided between two results and don't want to risk losing everything for a single goal. Instead of picking one sign (e.g. 1), you pick two (e.g. 1 and X). The computer will create separate betslips for you, each with one of the options you chose."
Why use it? (The Advantage)
Use it when you are sure of some matches (the 'bankers') but afraid of a big match. Example: you are sure Inter wins, but you are undecided on Juventus-Milan. With the integral system, you play both 1 and X of Juve-Milan in parallel bets. If Inter wins, one of your slips will surely be a winner!
Your personal Parachute
Unlike the classic 'Double Chance' which lowers the win significantly, here you keep the high odds. You are simply betting on multiple possible scenarios. It's like having an insurance policy on your bet.
Difference in 2 lines
Integral System: I cover multiple signs (1, X, 2) on the same match to avoid risk.
Error Correction: I can miss an entire match and still win (but the odds go down).
Simple Example Table
| The Match | What I Decide to Play | What the Computer Does | What it Means |
|---|---|---|---|
| Banker (e.g. Napoli-Lecce) | Only Win Napoli (Sign 1) | Puts 1 in all betslips | It is our fixed base. |
| Tough Match (e.g. Inter-Juve) | Win Inter (1) OR Draw (X) | Creates separate slips: some with 1, some with X | You have 2 out of 3 chances to get it right! |
| Another Tough Match (e.g. Milan-Roma) | Win Milan (1) OR Draw (X) | Creates more variants (multiplies your slips) | Again, we cover the doubts. |
| At the Cashout (Final Count) | You pay for created slips (e.g. 4 slips x €2 = €8) | Prints 4 different slips | If right, ONE of 4 slips will win and pay you! |
Safety or Win Multiplier?
There's a trick in integral systems: you can use them only to 'save your back' (coverage) or to try to win big by winning multiple slips at the same time (multiplier).
Strategy A: Coverage (Choices that CANNOT happen together)
Example: Playing both 'Win (1)' and 'Draw (X)'.
Only ONE of the two can happen. Either the team wins, or draws. It saves you if your team doesn't win. If right, only one slip wins, you throw away the other.
Strategy B: Multiplier (Choices that CAN happen together)
Example: Playing 'Win (1)' AND 'Over 2.5' (more than 2 goals total).
Both can happen together! If the team wins 3-0, you got EVERYTHING right! The system comes alive and makes you win MULTIPLE slips simultaneously, drastically multiplying the gain.
What happens in practice...
| Your Choice | How it ends | What you bring home |
|---|---|---|
| I play 1 and also X (Coverage) | Ends 1-0 (Win) | You win 1 ONLY slip (the one with the 1) |
| I play 1 and also X (Coverage) | Ends 1-1 (Draw) | You win 1 ONLY slip (the one with the X) |
| I play 1 and also Over 2.5 (Multiplier) | Ends 3-0 (Win + many goals) |
