Don't bother with the smart comments or anythin, wud just like a bit a info if ya got it, thanks.

Your winnings from one team goes on to the next and so on.

For example:

€10 accumulator on 5 teams (evs, 2/1, evs, 2/1, evs)

€10 at evs returns €20.
€20 at 2/1 returns €60.
€60 at evs returns €120.
€120 at 2/1 returns €360.
€360 at evs returns €720.

So altogether you get €720 from a €10 bet at those odds.

20 Times 20 Times

In future you will be better off picking your own teams rather then the selcetion they give you ! Make up your own accumulater pays better in the long run

Didnt Gretna only draw 2-2?

tinofapples

No it wasn't Gretna it was Berwick Rangers , apologies.

I usually get The Sun ( a rag I know) , read through the football bets section in that and try and pick a few myself . Since the season began I've had about 5/6 wins.Try to stick to home teams playing against lower placed opposition and keep the number of selections to a minimum. Of course the prices then are gonna be short but 4/5 of them will tot up nicely and profit is profit.

The draws are best of course but not always easy pick them as someone has already stated "there's always one" !!

The 3 draws would have returned about 163 for a fiver

joker77

Man those Football accumulators are starting to wreck my head! Been doing a few on PaddyPower.com, started with a fiver but down to a 1 euro bet now..... there's always 1 poxy result that lets me down!!!

Feel your pain for the Olympiakos one as well, they let me down that night - had 6 other results right

tinofapples

Just for an interest in the midweek games .......

Arsenal @ 1/3
Cardiff @ 4/11
Leicester @ 4/9
Norwich @ 2/5
Sunderland @ 3/10
West Brom @ 3/10
Wigan @1/3
Villa @ 8/15
Rangers @ 1/10
Celtic @1/8

5 yo yo's on it .

A mate of mine had an 8 team accumulator on Saturday. €10 would have returned €350. Anyway, 7 of the teams were winning. Reading were the only team not winning (drawing 0-0). Reading then scored in the last 10 minutes and he thought his bet was in. Then Gretna conceded an 89th minute peno and ended up drawing. His day was ruined.

tinofapples

His day was ruined

I can imagine.

An unlikely goal scorer kicks mine off.
