There are a few types of multi bets that you should consider. The most common is the combined multi bet. This is advantageous over a single rollover, since even if not all of your results come out, you can still have a chance to win something. It’s worth noting that this will depend on the type of syndicate bet you’re placing. So see below what the sub-types are and what their advantages are.
The first type is the 2/4 combination with six bets. In this type you will make four predictions. From these, six multiples of two will be formed. This means that at least two of the four predictions need to be correct for you to make any financial returns. Then there is the Heinz Combined Multiple, where you make six predictions. This results in fifty-seven bets. There are fifteen multiples of two, fifteen multiples of four, one multiple of six and twenty multiples of three.
The system bet – the safe bet
The third type of bet known is the system bet. It is used in particular to secure multiple bets. On a betting card, several rows are bet simultaneously. Even with one or two mistakes (depending on the system and quota ratio) profits can still be recorded. Most system bets can at least limit some of the losses. Obviously, system bets also have a negative fact. The potential returns are significantly lower than the comparable ones.
How do multiple bets work?
Multiple bets in a nutshell: instead of betting on several simple outcomes separately, we combine them all on one card. To give you a better understanding of how cumulative bets work, let’s take a look at an example. Let’s say you want to bet on four games from the Championship. You choose the games, determine who will be the winner in each one, and how much you want to bet on each game. Normally this is how every bettor does it when he wants to place a simple bet.
However, there is also the option of betting on the same games, but in a combined or cumulative way. The advantage of a single bet is that the risk of financial loss is much lower, although the profit is also reduced if compared to a multi bet. Normally betting systems automatically calculate the odds for each match. If you bet, for example, $ 100.00 on the four results in a multiple way, you can get an absurd profit depending on these odds.
- Be careful however that all outcomes must occur for your bet to be a winner.
- Aim for a smaller stake when opting for a multi bet.
When do multi bets pay off?
One of the questions most punters ask themselves is whether multi or cumulative bets are synonymous with profit or loss. Answering this question requires us to analyse a few issues. First you need to take into consideration the expected value of the bets, which is nothing more than the probability of winning or losing a bet. When making this calculation, it is necessary that your expected value is positive. In other words: there are more chances of profit.
In terms of sports betting, this can be very simple to do sometimes. When there are teams that are very disparate in terms of skill, for example, it is very easy to set the expected bet value. In such cases, there will be teams with a greater chance of winning than others. Therefore, place multiple bets, as the risks are more calculated. When the expected value of the bet is negative, however, do not bet, or place a single bet to avoid losses.
