Sure bet 4

A very popular strategy is the possibility of combining various single bets to an accumulator or a system bet. A system bet can achive very high odds as the individual odds will simply accumulate. Unfortunately, the placing of an accumulator restricts gamblers to odds of that one bookmaker they chose. It is not possible to combine single bets of different bookmakers. That means the gambler can not chose the best odds for his picks but needs to accept the one bookmakers odds.

Accumulator offer a number of strategies:

1.            Out of a pre selected number of games the supposedly 4-5 safest games will be combined to an accumulator or a system bet. These games usually are from the major European Leagues as the difference of strength between top and bottom of the table are quite high. The single Odds of around 1,2 – 1,5 add up to odds around 4-5. This accumulator will win in approx 50% of all cases, which only needs odds of above 2 to make profit.

2.For tipsters who like to bet on higher odds (draws, correct score or under dog bets) the system bet is a very useful addition. We recommend bets like Trixie, Yankee or Canadian. (LINKS TO betting encyclopaedia system bets) The already higher single odds accumulated will become sometimes astronomical odds (at times 3 digits). This strategy needs to be played over a longer period as most of these system bets will be lost and a winning bet is rare.

3.            C)           Sometimes it is wise to add a supposedly safe bet to your chosen single bet. This will improve the odds quite significantly.

Example from the World Cup 2010 in South Africa:

Game 1: Ivory Coast 3,90              X 3,10 Portugal 2,00

Game 2: England 1,22     X 5,50   Algerien 12,50

The original single bet on Portugal is at odds of 2. If you add the „very safe“ bet of 1.22 (England to beat Algeria) to it you will get accumulated odds of 2.44.

D)           Another possibility is the accumulation of 2-3 Double Chance bets. The bet is in each case with the favorite.

Spiel 1: South Africa - Uruguay - Draw or Uruguay = odds 1,25

Spiel 2: Greece– Nigeria  - draw orNigeria = odds 1,16

Spiel 3: Ghana – Australia - draw or Ghana = odds 1,18

All three games accumulate to a considerable 1,711.
