    Say team A are 2/1 in their game and team B are 3/1 in some other game.
    1 on each as singles if they both win will give me 5 in winnings.
    Now if I were to do this in an accumulator I would expect odds of at least 6 to 1. Thinking being its my 2 winnings from first game goes on the second game at odds of 3 to 1.
    But to attract you into taking the additional risk to go for the bigger winnings of an accumukator would the bookie offer acc odds of maybe 7/1 ?

    2/1 and 3/1 double pays 11/1. €1 @ 2/1 returns €3, €3 @3/1 returns €12.

    No disrespect but if you cannot grasp the simple concept of an accumulator, maybe you shouldnt be gambling?
