How does fourfolds/fivefolds/sixfolds/ etc work ?

NeVeR

Hey..

I normally place a bet on a Sat on the football i pick 12 teams and stick €2 or €3 Euro on it just for a laugh really. Odds are mad

Like the one i'm doing today will pay€25,245 or €3 haha..

But i also see i can place fourfolds/fivefolds etc.. I'm thinking of doing the eightfolds one. I know theres 495 lines in the bet, The lowest amount i can place on it is €0.07 cent where If it comes up i get €15,764.76,

Now does it work ? I take it i only need 8 of my teams to win? and I also take it that the €15,764.76 is says i can win is only if the 8 biggest odds teams win ?

Is that right ?

Any help/info would be great,

Just to add here's the teams i'm doing.

Selection: Hamilton@11/10

E.G.


You pick 4 teams to win - on a 3 fold bet.

If team 1,2,3&4 win you will get the full bet amount.

If team 1 does not win you will only get the odds of 2&3&4

Thats the easiest way of explaining it...

I've tried it a few times but i dont really like it. You would be better off picking 2 options in one game. eg. Team 1 win / draw.

The line in bold is wrong. Its not the 8 biggest price teams! you need all 12 teams to win to get the 15K. think about it...0.07 on 8 teams that win is not going to return 15k.

well it's 0.07 x 495 as thats how many lines/bets there are,

As i said i dont know how it works,,, thats why i'm asking,

If you take your 12 selections its 8000/1.. now thats based on 1 euro accum.. Adding multiples means you will have to do hundreds of bets to cover every possibility. best to stick with the long shots.. as someone else stated above, not alot of value in fivefolds/sixfolds unless you are betting a nice sum and the teams win, as you prob need 4/5, or 5/6 to win to make your money back..

Basically all this bet means is that your doing all combinations of the 12 teams you have picked in 8 team accumulators.
So if one of your team loses all the combinations with this team in them loses.

The payout you refer to in the OP is if all 12 teams won. This would mean all the 8 folds that you have are winners and cumlatively these would pay out 15K.
If lets say 2 teams lost and the rest were winners the bet would pay out whatever the total amount of each individual winning 8 team accumulators were left.

Hope that makes sense.
