This is also true, if you make an error with your bets you can lose your own money (you do have to inject your own cash to match bets).
Most common mistake is people backing both sides of a handicap where the handicap is (for example) -10.0 rather than -10.5. The .5 takes the draw out of the equation so you only have a binary result (and you back both results). If you mistakenly back a .0 handicap you still leave the possibility of a "draw" result, in which case both of your bets are losers.
