when was the last time you did a yankee or lucky 15??

4/5 couple months ago,fav let me down for 10k

do them all the time,got a lucky 31 up a few years ago paid guts of 10k,got a few lucky 15s up,people say bookies bet that cant pick their nose tbh

think a placepot is better value

look at today ... Newmarket 200 quid

1st up- you can dream
2nd up- stake back
3rd up-decent return
4th up-nice return

prob is more value cardiffc

I look at the lucky 15 thread on a Saturday............don't think in all that time anyone has had 4 up............did one time see someone have 3 up

ash had 3 up last sat

I do one every day. When bookies are paying 3 times the odds for one winner it's hard work to lose too much. I may be the exception to the rule.

The lucky 15 thread has had loads of trebles up.

I used to do placepots for a profit in the 90's and early 2000's every week, given up on them now as they dont seem to pay what they used too. Either the placepotters are better or something else has occurred.

I still do a yankee, prefer a heinz myself and do them daily.

barstool is the one to ask

All part of exploiting the ricks,only chance of winning anything decent short term with books

Apparently the Jackpot is going to be split between 2 meetings to make it harder than it already is

They want bigger rollovers - not to mention more loot for Fred's retirement pot!

If you can get on at treble the odds one winner GUARANTEED ODDS then you must be a fool not to bet a Lucky 15...

Just remember four 8/1 winners for £15 would pay £10k plus 10% bonus...

Just a thought...

Cheers fella, I'm gonna find me 4 8-1 winners tomorrow

Do a pound acca too, it'll add another 60% to your winnings.

you shroodie

Singles are the grind but potentially profitable, doubles & trixies if you're lucky give you a buffer, anything else is lottery territory, my faves are either 2 singles & a double, or 3 singles & a trixie, for small stakes.

3 singles and a Trixie is a patent rob

one 3/1 winner, treble odds you will get 69% stake back

3 singles and a Trixie is a patent rob

yes but I think rob stakes it differently

Yep x say 3 fivers on each single and a pound trixie good spot sir

Yep you need to play for say 5/1 to 7/1 punts minimum for a decent pay but one winner is a clear profit, a couple and you're well ahead, ok anything else is unlikely but look at it as a savings payout if it cops..gl

£1 accum boost

stake £20

Lucky 15s.

Every day on the dirty ew stuff, or put a few ricks together great bet to have in your punting arsenal

a couple of years ago the local paddy power were having a ding dong with an idependant  at one stage paddy power went five times the odds i kid you not it was like christmas

the independant choice bet

betfrred near me went 4 X one winner

lasted one Saturday

the five did not last long but four times the winner went on for over a year coral bought out choice bet eventually now back down to three

did one on ayr g




























Did

Ayr gold cup day with all the Touches

7/2
4/1
3/1
5/2 fav 3rd

Did four lucky 15's on Thursday triple the odds one winner best price guaranteed..

Had four winners at 20/1 10/1 7/1 and 9/1 and you know the rest...

Today had seven lucky 15's on the same terms in a shop...

Once again a winner in each..

There is not a better bet just make sure that one winner equates to a profit as some half-wits put in short price favorites...

Worrying times for me here.......... I find myself agreeing with H4T far too often for my liking!!!

No problem fella I used to make a living with Stanley Racing on triple the odds one winner Lucky 15's when you were in short pants..

(oh you still wear them)..

Trouble is that the firms with the guarantee offer the worst prices...

Swings and roundabouts...

Just a thought..

a 3/1 gives you 69%return

Feck me fella you are clever..

A 5/1 winner will give a return..

Why would you want to back a 3/1 shot..

In other words you would need to get two winners to make a profit..

Do a yankee or do one...

it rather do 1 winner than e/w

I prefer the Canadian bet had a few good wins with these

I've often thought of doing one Eddie but I can't speak the language

Feck me I would hate to be a teacher as the majority of people are pig ignorant..

At least 40 years ago. I am very happy with single bets and if I am honest it is plaoe only on Betfair that is the most prifitable or least expensive form of betting that I indulge in. It is annoying when you back one place only and it wins at a big price but most of them finish second or third or nowhere.

Last day of every month (August - February), I always put a £0.50 Yankee on for Cheltenham ante post to try and seek out some value and for a bit of fun. Last years most notable success was Faugheen (Champion Hurdle) - 4/1, Un De Sceaux (Arkle) - 6/1, Vautour (JLT) - 7/1, Windsor Park (Neptune) - 10/1. That of course only provided cover for the fact I had been backing Vautour for the Arkle as a single for ages! I've been topping up on Douvan for the Arkle this year, would imagine I'll end up firing him in one of my Yankees at 10/1 for the JLT as cover.

Never.
My old man always did Yankees and if he ever got all 4 up he kept very quiet about it.

if you do 4 horses in a yankee in a betting shop.............every horse is at least a point or even bigger on 6 or 7\1 chances............maybe 3 points on 10\1 to say 16\1...........then in to the 20\1 you could have sometimes double the price on here..............multiply the difference......bad value

Hence why ante post normally means you have a better price than the SP well in advance.

yeah but the one winner 3 x odds lucky15 gives you a get out of jail majority stake back

More likely the bald one is stealing the money out of the pool...

Actually that was in response to a placepot question..

Why am I taken back to an old response every time that I want to post...

why do the bookies seem so keen for punters to do them that's what bothers me, are they a bad bet or good bet. i'm sure the punters who target the bad ew races it gives them a definite edge as i've heard that they have trouble getting the bets accepted, but for backing in your average sort of races i don't know if they give us an advantage even with treble odds one winner.

they promote behaviour they wish to encourage, they ban you for behaviour that costs them money

if you go into a bookies and there's signs up for treble odds one winner lucky 15s, they're not losing money on those bets

On dear fellas you must be new to the game..

Done properly the bet is a godsend and guaranteed prices (although I must admit that the original ones will be poor) is a steal..

The alleged "bookmakers" rely on the mugs putting in short priced horses..

Concentrate on the better handicaps where you can back horses at double figures and you cannot fail to break even...

.

Id do multiples everyday if I could make money out of them.  Nothing like a bet rolling up.  25 years ago I won £5000 which got me hooked on them.

The nearest I have been to a mega pot was an e/w double on Piccolo who won the Kings Stand at 33/1 and a horse whose name escapes me who was fourth beaten 3 heads in the Wokingham ridden by Alex Greaves also at 33/1. The place double was 80/1 and we backed them both e/w single as well. Around £50 e/w and £20 e/w double between 2 of us so a few thousand back and would have been £25k.

Betfair has changed things .  If I had a large amount rolling up these days I'd be hedging it, which would take away the thrill of a big win.

ignore hfts advice and swerve handicaps and wait till there are 4 decent ew races then get what u can on spread around. simple u will make money. Why people want to bet in handicaps where someone much smarter than me is trying to get them to finish in a line is beyond me

Venture Capitalist was the name of your horse Sageform.

shiner you are a star - I never mentioned doing an each-way yankee but a lucky 15...

No wonder you have that username..

I do a multiple every day, 6 or 7 selections often ew with extra accas to £1 or 50p unit. Occasinally have a £10 yankee + £10 acca, (if they all come in I hit big time). Best return so far £57,000 and had over 10k a couple of times.

You have a 20 million/1 chance in the lottery, pure luck only. At least selecting in 6 or 7 races you can rule a few out.

Lots of losing bets I know but it is the only way I will have a big win. £100,000 is the target.

I will keep having a go.

Good luck fella but the concessions are the best..

If you live in that rathole London then you could not fail to win..

Triple the odds one winner on a Lucky 15 BOG has to be the best though...

So u would rather bet in a 15runner handicap then a 9 runner maiden with an odds on fav which hasn't run and the 2nd in has solid place form.Keep taking the tablets

Shiner, the trick is to back the unraced horse in a maiden at a price that you think underestimates its chance based on pedigree. Place only if you think the short priced fav. will win.
