Bet types & in-play

A model can rate a selection, but the bet type decides what that rating is worth once it sits on a slip. This section lays out the types and the arithmetic behind them.

Singles and accumulators come first. The full-cover set then climbs from the Trixie, with 4 bets, through the Patent with 7, the Yankee with 11 and the Lucky 15, to the Super Yankee (or Canadian) with 26, the Heinz with 57 and the Goliath with 247. Bet builders, Asian handicap, over/under, cash out and live streaming complete the picture.

What a full-cover bet costs is the unit stake multiplied by its bet count. Great Britain’s bookmakers include live betting among their products, whereas cash out depends entirely on the operator, since no statute grants it.
