The original bet was about 5 bucks. The fan gave Turco 5 to 1 on the second bet. Turco lost and owed him 5 bucks. It doesn't make sense that he would give him more.
EDIT: Btw, I think it's hilarious and they shouldn't fine Turco since it was only about 5 bucks.
A 5 to 1 odds on the original bet is 25 dollars he would owe.
The fan said to make it 5 to 1 that Chicago doesn't score. It's pretty clearly obvious Turco lost 25 bucks on that bet.
No.
If I give you 5 to 1 on a 5$ bet and you win I'll owe you 25$. If you lose (like Turco) you owe me 5$.
I'll give you 5-to-1 the Canadiens win the game.
Turco owed him 5 bucks.
