What is a Super Heinz Bet?
A Super Heinz Bet is a widely popular betting method that involves seven selections. Named after the famous Heinz company that boasts 57 varieties of products, a Super Heinz Bet consists of 120 bets.
These include 21 doubles, 35 trebles, 35 four-fold accumulators, 21 five-fold accumulators, 7 six-fold accumulators, and 1 seven-fold accumulator.
The unique aspect of a Super Heinz Bet is that it does not require all seven selections to be successful for a return. It is sufficient if at least two of the seven selections win to guarantee a return.
How are Winnings Calculated for a Super Heinz Bet?
Calculating the winnings for a Super Heinz Bet involves a bit of mathematics, but it’s not as complicated as it seems.
In an example of a £10 Super Heinz Bet. Remember, a Super Heinz consists of 120 bets, so your total stake would be £1200 (£10 x 120). Now, let’s say you have made seven selections, each with odds of 2/1.
If two of your selections win, you will have two winning doubles. The return from each double would be £30 (£10 stake plus £20 winnings). So, your total return would be £60, and your profit would be -£1140 (£60 return minus £1200 stake).
However, if all seven of your selections win, then all 120 bets win. The return from each double would be £30, each treble £90, each four-fold £270, each five-fold £810, each six-fold £2430, and the seven-fold £7290.
If you add all these returns together, you would get a whopping £135,120! So, while a Super Heinz Bet involves a larger stake, the potential winnings can be incredibly lucrative if all your selections win.
