What Is an Double Bet?
A Double bet is the simplest form of accumulator, combining two selections from different events into one single bet. For a return, both chosen selections must win; if either fails, the entire bet is lost. Highly popular across all sports, it offers a straightforward way to increase potential returns significantly compared to two single bets, serving as an ideal entry point into multiple betting.
How Does a Double Bet Work?
A Double bet operates by compounding odds: your initial stake goes on the first selection, and if it wins, the entire return (stake plus winnings) automatically becomes the stake for the second selection. Both selections must win for the bet to succeed and pay out. If either selection loses, the entire Double bet is lost. The combined odds are found by multiplying the individual odds of each selection; for example, two selections at 2/1 (3.00 decimal) would yield combined odds of 8/1 (9.00 decimal).
How to work out a Double Bet
Let's illustrate a win Double Calculator example with 2 football selections, a £10 stake, and fractional odds:
Selections:
Sel 1: Manchester City to win: Odds 1/1 (Win)Sel 2: Arsenal to win: Odds 2/1 (Win)
How Returns are Calculated:
1. Selection 1 (Man City wins): Your initial £10 stake is multiplied by Sel 1's odds (1/1): £10 x (1/1 + 1) = £10 x 2 = £20.00 (This is your new stake for Sel 2)Selection 2 (Arsenal wins): The £20.00 from Sel 1 is now multiplied by Sel 2's odds (2/1): £20.00 x (2/1 + 1) = £20.00 x 3 = £60.00
Total Stake: £10.00
Total Return: £60.00
Total Profit: £60.00 - £10.00 = £50.00
Total Return: £60.00
Total Profit: £60.00 - £10.00 = £50.00
What if one selection loses? If Manchester City had lost, the entire Double bet would be lost, and your £10 stake would be gone. This highlights the all-or-nothing nature of a win double.
