Why the Board Looks Like a Menu
Because it is laid out like one. Different multipliers, different colours, different button sizes — all of it suggesting that some options are better value than others and that choosing well is part of playing. The arithmetic says otherwise: the numbers are set so that every route through the board costs about the same per rupee staked, which is exactly how a designed board works.
What the layout does change is behaviour. Bigger buttons with bigger numbers get pressed more often after losses, and that is a real effect on what a session costs, even though it is not an effect on the odds.
The One Number That Does Vary
Turnover. Not which market you pick, but how much money passes through the board in an hour — stake multiplied by rounds. It is the only figure here that a player fully controls and the only one where a decision changes the cost by a factor rather than a few per cent.
That calculation is on the house edge and turnover page, and the full list of guides is on the home page.
