Accumulator Query?

    I placed a ten team accumulator at the weekend.

    I picked 8 teams playing at the weekend, and I figured out later 2 playing the following weekend.

    "Fair enough I thought, I'll just have to wait a few days to see if it comes in."

    However, I then discovered those two teams were playing against each other on Sunday.

    I didn't write any dates or prices on the betting slip, it just says the team names, so my question is, how does this work? Does it count as one win, one loss, or what?

    Appreciate the help, as 8 of the teams won at the weekend and I'd hate to be waiting all week and know it was buggered anyway.

    Sounds like the last 2 should be void and 8 team winner

    You'll get a proportionally staked accum on two 9folds.

    OK, all ten matches have been played and all of the games intended to bet on have won.

    Does anyone think Paddy Power will pay out on the 10 games I meant to chose?

    Correct. Got about €40. Still not bad for a €1 bet but a bit annoying at the same time :)

    so did they treat it as a winning 8 fold with 2 teams voided

    or two 9 folds (one a winner & one a loser) with the stake divided 50/50 ?

    I can't actually work it out.

    I bet €1`and got back €39.20

    I've tried a few combinations of the teams and can't get €39.20 as a result.

    Here are the teams and odds if anyone is bored enough to care lol:
    Tottenham 3/4
    Metalist Kharkiv 4/9
    Ajax 4/11
    Gent 4/11
    Juventus 8/13
    Lazio 5/6
    Saint-Etienne 9/20
    Velencia 4/7
    Real Sociedad 7/10
    Man Utd 10/11

    It was Juventus and Lazio who were playing the following week and who were playing against each other that week. Juventus won.

    it doesn't work out at that amount either way

    closest I get is a €1 8fold on them games..some price might have shortened to explain reduction (they never seem to settle with longer odds!). you could always go back and ask them out of curiosity

    Yeah, I tried it a few ways but couldn't work it out either.
    By the way, the matches were from 17-18 August and the Italian matches were from 24-25 August.

    Might ring tomorrow and ask them, just out of curiosity.
