I think you've got a lot of faith in the north-east three! I've got a hunch that one of them will be held to a draw or worse....

I reckon you'll probably be ok with the away selections if Rafa puts out a strong Pool team.

well Sunderland are at home to Northwitch victoria I think and Newcastle are at home to Mansfield so they should be home bankers, whilst Middlesborough are away at Nuneaton Borough on paper thats three wins for me.

I can't see Rafa not putting out a strong team so lets just hope it coms in!!

How does an accumaltive bet work...?

Do they multiply all the odds together and then multiply the total by how much you put down?

Sort of it works (i think) like this:-

£1 Accum.

£1 on Man U at 5/1 = £6

£6 on Leicester at 10/1 = £60

£60 on Chelsea at 3/1 = £180 etc. etc.

You put a certain amount of money on so many matches (4 or more) and choose the outcome of each game and if you get all your selections correct your winnings will be calculated on the price of all the odds for that certain result. for instance say you had a winning selection of teams that had short odds your winnings would be less but if you had a winning selection of teams with longer odds your winnings would be more. Hope you can understand that!!

Sorry to be picky but your returns would be £66 and £240 respectively :P

Wrong

£6 at 10/1=£66

£66 at 3/1=£264 :whistle:

You have to remember to add the money staked onto what you win and the multiply it by the odds plus your stake

Ahhh okay thanks. :)

I was wondering if it was similar to 'Pro-line' betting in Ontario. Basically I could put $3 down on three wins which were valued a 2.00, 1.50 and 3.00.... which equals 9.00 (I think) and times that by $3 to make a possible winning of $27.00.

I was going for the principle not the math.....you should work for William Hill

Why and your wrong

er no im not -

you said - £6 on a 10/1 shot well 6x10 = 60 + your £6 stake = £66

and you said £60 on a 3-1 shot well 60x3 = 180 + your £60 stake = £240

I thank you.

The one tip I would give when betting on the football is never back away teams in the cup, the home team are always up for it, especially against higher league opposition.
