Parlays, Accumulators and All Ups are classed as Multiple Bet options.
Multiple bet types allow you to select a series of two, three or more single bets from sports and/or racing and combine them to increase your return. The final dividend is determined by multiplying together the odds of each of your selections. The maximum number of selections within the one multiple is limited to 16.
You may select a single multiple where all selected competitors must win - otherwise the bet is lost.
You may also select boxed multiples, this is when you select a number of competitors and box them on one ticket. A boxed multiple bet covers more potential playing combinations - increasing your chances of a win. Your single ticket covers all combinations of those competitors.

The maximum number of selections within the one multiple is limited to 16, below is an example of 2-5 selections.
Example:
|
3 Play Parlay / Treble You bet $10 taking the following selections, Ireland (Rugby Union) $2.20 to Win and England (Soccer) $4.00 Correct Score 2-0 and Phil Mickelson (Golf) $10.00 to Win. The final dividend is determined by multiplying together the odds of each of your selections, $2.20 x $4.00 x $10.00 = $88.00. For a single multiple, if you bet $10 your return will be $880.00, for a profit of $870.00 |
One bet involving 2 selections from different events. Both selections must be successful for your bet to win.
One bet involving 3 selections from different events. All selections must be successful for your bet to win.
One bet involving 4 selections from different events. All selections must be successful for your bet to win.
One bet involving 5 selections from different events. All selections must be successful for your bet to win.
While Multiple bets can link Sports and Racing betting markets together, they cannot be bet on the same event. This is because you cannot select two outcomes in the same Multiple bet that are related to each other.
Example:
You are unable to bet England (Soccer) $8.00 Correct Score 2-0 and England Win at $3.35.
This bet is related, because if the Correct Score on the match is England winning 2-0, then England has already won the match, i.e. The Correct Score 2-0 and England Win are related to one another.
Canbet reserves the right to declare all related Multi bets void (refer to rule 24)
Note: The maximum number of selections within one multiple is limited to 10.
As a sports fan you will often find 3, 4 or 5 picks that catch your eye, but what is the best staking plan?
A single on each would be the most simple, but what if they all came up winners?
For a really big return you would need to combine all the winners in an accumulator/parlay bet. The returns can be enormous, but you need to be 100% correct to collect.
That's where the exotic multiple bet types come in. Guarantee yourself a jackpot payout if you do manage to strike gold with 100% winners, but have the security of a decent profit if just two or three of your selections win.

The following example is of a Patent. The example is then followed by other exotic multiple bet types that are similar but have different names and calculations according to the number of selections you choose.
|
The Patent is the perfect bet if you have 3 selections. It consists of 7 bet combinations:
Example: A $5 Patent on my 3 selections would cost $35.00, at least 1 selection must win to earn a return. Liverpool $6.00 (+500), Philadelphia Eagles $6.00 (+500) and Tiger Woods $6.00 (+500)
Total Cost =$35.00 In this example, any one winner returns $30 (1 single). Any two winners return $240 (1 double, 2 singles). All three winners return $1,710. |
