Let me clear this up..just in case both me and picoman are erroneously assuming you already know this:

Your 1x2 bets on Eintracht Frankfurt and Wolfsburg don't get canceled if the game ends in a draw. You would lose both bets.
Yes I know that I wont get paid for a draw, but What I am asking is completely hypothetical. IF there was a book that offered:
"Yankees +135
Boston +175"
BUT only allowed you to bet on one side, what would the player have to hit to stay even? Me and my friend had an argument about it and we both suck at math so try and help me out. I thought it was around 43 percent, he says it is less. Who is right?
