    Bump

    A new series of Saturday only (?) BBs starts today in association with www.onthenose.com

    8 selections though (4 from OTN and 4 from PB) which means quite a lot of mulitples and a bit of luck required for a decent pay out.

    This looks like it'd be the most confusing betslip ever. I'll need about an hour just to think about this.

    8 selections
    56 trebles…..10p = £5.60
    70 fourfolds 5p =£3.50
    56 fivefolds….2p =£1.12p
    28 sixfolds……2p=£0.56p
    8 sevenfolds…2p= £0.16p
    1 eightfold accumulator @6p

    The first bet is posted

    You could do 2 Lucky 15's or combine all 8 as suggested.

    Actually an easy enough bet to do. Just a word of warning to PP users - they have minumums on sevenfolds/eightfolds and so the price jumps up if you want to stick with them. Not sure if the limit holds for other bookies. I'll have a look now.

    I like these bets. Seems a good way to avoid overspend but just out of interest what kind of 'hit ratio' do they have? I've never actually heard of anyone pulling these off except some isolated cases such as at the start of the thread. Though I do love the idea of betting widely but spending only 2-3e.

    Betfair is best. You can do 2p accums.

    Thanks! I also noticed Betpack works for those who use that.

    From reading the thread it seems there has only been one major success. I suspect we would be insanely lucky to hit that kind of money again but I do like your system because it minamizes one's exposure and keeps the 'buzz' going because you can follow races widely. I'll certainly follow these bets as they come along. :)

    Its a fun bet really where you can hit a big one if you get lucky. Good luck
