    hi there, this might sound thick, but i did a six fold on the football at the weekend with seven teams, potential pay out was 70 euro, six came in and i got 9 euro pay out, i thought the idea of the six fold was you were allowed one loser and get paid ??? please help
    i picked ten teams on an accumulator and nine came in, so close for a 70/1

    When you bet, you were making 7 individual bets of 6 teams to win. So when 6 teams won, one of your bets paid ( the €9) . If all 7 teams had won, then all 7 bets would have been paid (€70).
    Hard luck on the accumulator. There is always one.

    is it worth doing the six fold then ?
    what would be the better option for the footie bets, i was looking at the super heinz as well

    I tend to stick to a maximum of 4 in a accumulator, as I can never manage to get the 5th winner.
    The super heinz means your bet will be bigger, but more likely to get a return. I tend to stick to just simple accumulators, which means when/if you win, you win big. With bets like super heinz, you could win on some of your bet and still lose money or barely win anything.
