Actual figure deducted for size of an each way bet?

[Andytrif]

Hi

I've been looking through the docs and have searched the forums, but can't seem to find an answer on this.

When placing an each way bet via the API, is 'size' the total stake for both parts of the bet, or is double the size taken off the account balance?

i.e., if size=10, is my balance deducted 10 or 20 ?

Thanks

Hi Andytrif

Your potential liability for an each way bet is size x 2, so for a £10 bet your account would be deducted £20.

I'll update the documentation to make this clear.
