Do you bet in multiples?
Doubles, trebles or acca's (accumulators)?
I have always been of the opinion that these types of bets are just for the bookies benefit and have always avoided them, even though there is a promise of huge profits if they come off.
I do remember a few years back reading an article about how if you are making value bets, if you combine them into doubles or trebles that you magnify the advantage that you have because the value multiplies. But that didnt change my methods.

The results from yesterday's Racing Consultants tips have caused me to think again.
Yesterday they gave three selections to be combined into a half point each way Trixie.
A Trixie is 3 doubles (eachway doubles in this case) and a treble, so four bets.
The guys managed to land 2 of the bets, the advised prices were 6/1 and 9/1 (there was a 10p rule 4 on the 6/1)
A £5 eachway Trixie where only two of the horses won paid £376, which is a £336 profit!
That's a big return from getting just two bets home.
But the thing that really surprised me is that if they had got all three home the return would have been £5,620 for a £40 outlay.
(The non runner was 11/1)
I need to re-think my betting and staking strategy.

Today's Selection
4.00 Newcastle – Lady Bingo – win bet – 4/1 Bet 365
i normally bet singles but do the odd small stake multi bet. in the last 2 months i have picked up £3500 from a 20p lucky with a 50p ew acca, and 1500 from a10plucky 31. so there is a place for it especially with triple odds for 1 winner on a lucky 15 if your selections are not too short
Nice one Dave, as the kids say, I’m well jell 😮
this is one bet i love doing
Fill out all 6 selection odds to calculate returns for this bet. Selections 1,2 and 3 form one patent, selections 4,5 and 6 form the other. Selections 2,3,4 and 5 from the yankee and all selections form an accumulator.
26 bets: 2 patents, 1 yankee and a six-fold accumulator.
the best win i have had was £500 five won
Interesting idea Stephen, what size stakes was it for the £500 win?
my biggest ever win came in the year that red rum got second to red alligator , who i believe was owned by a famous hairdresser of that time mr teasy weasy , i actually won enough to buy a one year old ford cortina the equivalent these days of a one year old ford mondeo , if red rum had won it would of been enough to buy a semi detached house where i live around todays value of £290,000 , but was just glad to win what i did , i always back horses to win or e/w if the price is above evens on bet fair, but if i back several on one day then i usually lump them all together at small stakes usually at around a tenth of my single bets
Thanks for sharing Thomas, you must be due another Red Rum return soon?
Great site this, look forward to the blogs every day! This is more great info and well worth looking into.
