Sorry, but I don't understand what you're asking. What do you mean by "4 e/w bets + a single in one bet"?

i mean i want to do

to win their leagues:

team a
team b
team c
team d

from different leagues, e/w wins at 1/4 odds (top 4 for e/w)

as well as a seperate long term bet - in one bet as as accumulator

I'm not surprised

Given the fact that there are plenty of people on here who can settle bets, if they understood them in the first place, and that you have no answers yet, you should try explaining it more clearly.

I've been a settler for over 30 years but I read it 5 times and I still don't know what you want.

sorry lol it makes clear sense to me

i want

birmingham e/w
leicester e/w
breadford e/w
stevenage e/w
aaron ramsey not to score in premier league

as ONE bet - an accumulator


at the prices i gave i just want to know a rough return lol i dont get how to do it at all


the e/w bets are settled at 1/4 the odds for top 4 in their league


so these picks, one bet, some e/w, one single, together, as one bet

thanks lol

You mean....

BIRMINGHAM to place ??
LEICESTER to place,
BRADFORD to place,
Stevenage to place,
Ramsey not to score

Doubt if you'll get it anywhere TBH even like that...

And all 5 would HAVE to happen for a pay out..

I don't know if bookies will let you mix e/w bets and straight win/lose bets in an accumulator. If they do, and if they settle it as an e/w 4-fold accumulator with all the returns going on to the "not-to-score" bet, then you get a return of 76.18 from a 2 unit stake if all four teams place and Ramsey doesn't score, according to my maths.

For a stake of 1 unit (not 2 as slapdash says) you get a return of 76.18 units. This is how to work it out: Take each of the e/w odds and divide by 4, then add 1. So 6/1 becomes: 6/4 + 1 = 2.5. Multiply all four numbers together. Then multiply the answer by (1+odds of single bet), that is 2.1 - The result is your return for a 1 unit stake.

2 units because you have to do the win half of the bet as well, so to have 1 unit going on the four teams to place, you'll need another 1 unit going on them to win.

Feck, I was hoping for an argument to develop as I was bored.
