Need help with accumulator

Hi, Sorry I was trying. This is backing the Fav so the odds will be different each time.
Odds of 3 was just an example. An accumulator should add the stake and profit to the next bet and keep doing so till you stop.

OK, let's take a look at your example:

If the odds are all 3 then it should go like this..

First bet £1 return will be £3
Next bet is £3 and return will be £9
Next bet is £9 and return will be £27
Next bet is £27 and return will be £81
Next bet is £81 and return will be £243

According to your rule, it actually should look like this:

First bet £1 return will be £3
Next bet is £1 + £3 (prev. bet plus profit) and return will be £12
Next bet is £4 + £12 and return will be £48
Next bet is £16 + 48 and return will be £192
Next bet is £64 + 192 and return will be £768

So please clear it up for me.

Sorry stake and profit accumulated together should be the next bet. You only ever stake £1 and all the rest comes from the return.
This is correct if it was a straight accumulator on odds of 3

First bet £1 return will be £3
Next bet is £3 and return will be £9
Next bet is £9 and return will be £27
Next bet is £27 and return will be £81
Next bet is £81 and return will be £243
Basically the full return including the stake goes on to the next bet.

If you went in to the bookies and placed £10 on a horse at 3 and it won they would give you £30 back.
Then you give them the £30 on a horse at 2 and they give you back £60, Then you put the £60 on a horse at 4 and they give you back £240
That is how an accumulator works. You only ever loose the first stake and all the rest is re-investment.

Hope that makes more sense.

hi oxa
it is like this
1 (stake) * (3-1)=2+1(stake)
3*(3-1)=6+stake=9
etc
etc

Right, so the return in this context is in fact the payout, not the winnings.

Thanks mcbee for putting it all in math language for me.
