What is an Accumulator bet?
Combining these two or more selections into a single wager, an accumulator bet (also known as an Acca or high-roll bet) only pays out when all parts win.

This style of an accumulator bet is most common in wagers on horse races. An each-way wager is one on a horse to "win" or "place."
This wager's "to-place" section pays out at 1/4 of the winning odds.
a $5 AU bet A 10AU each-way wager would cost 5AU to win and 5AU to put.
| Selection | Odds (Fractions) | To Place | Bet Outcome |
|---|---|---|---|
| 1 | 5/1 | 1.5 | Win |
| 2 | 7/1 | 1.4 | Placed (3rd) |
| 3 | 3/1 | 3 | Win |
| 4 | 12/1 | 5 | Win |
- Selection 2 failed to win, resulting in a loss of the 5 AU$ stakes and 0 AU$ returns, and the to-win portion of the place bet was lost.
- The odds versus your placing are then incorporated into the "to-place" bet calculation.
Part 2 Profit = Total Returns - Unit Stake = 125.56AU$ Part 2 Returns = 5 A$* ((5 * 1/5) + 1) * ((7 * 1/5) + 1) * ((3 * 1/5) + 1) * ((12 * 1/5) + 1) = 130.56AU$
The results of combining the returns from the two portions together are the overall returns for the bet.
- Total Profit = Total Returns minus the two 5 stakes = 115.56AU$
- Total Returns = 125.56AU$ + 0AU$ = 125.56AU$
