That there is no gain on the bet ?


Even money.

If you bet $100 (which you will hand to them at that time) and
Armstrong wins they will hand you $200 for that little ticket they
give proving you made the bet.

And 7/2 would mean that you get 3.5X back on your bet(plus the money
you bet). So if you gave them $100 and won they would hand you $450.

Armstrong's line could be less than even at 4/5 which means if you bet
$100 and won they would give you back that $100 plus $80 more. A less
than even money bet.

It looks like you'll get your money back--no more. Odds on Armstrong to win
the whole TdF, 1/50, or a $2.00 bet pays $2.04.


Caveat- I'm not expert either, but that's not what touts call a good price.

Thanks for the clarification

Hincapie?

I'm sure they would have been happy to have quoted you odds for Hincapie,
had you asked them to. You'd be a happy camper right now. BTW, I did quite
well at Betfair.com today Thanks to George and Lance!
