Brooklyn Nets +7.5 (-110) Dallas Cowboys -3.5 (-110) New York Rangers +1.5 (-110) If you were going to construct one regular parlay, you’d need all three of these teams to cover the spread. Round robin betting allows you to create a security policy – you remain profitable even if one leg of the parlay fails. A 10-fold bet is a ten team accumulator bet, here it is explained in more detail. To win, all 10 predictions have to correct. If just one prediction is wrong, the whole bet loses. Example of a 10-Fold Bet. Blackpool 6/5 Forest 4/7 Spurs 2/9 Chelsea 2/9 Huddersfield 1/2 Man utd 1/7 swindon 4/6 aldershot 4/5 leeds 8/13 charlton 8/11. Am i correct in thinking a 10 fold at £1 would cost me £10, and does this mean 1 or 2 teams could let me down but i still win some money? Any help / advice will be appreciated.
What are folds in football betting? – explained.
A fold in football betting is any accumulator bet of four selections or more. A fold accumulator bet can consist of multiple selections from different football matches. You can only win a fold football bet if all the selections in the wager are successful. For example, if you select four teams to win in a four-fold accumulator, all four results selected must be correct to win the bet.
When wagering on football, you may choose a single, double or treble bet. However, if you are looking for something larger with the possibility of a bigger payout, you may choose to wager on a four-fold, five-fold or another fold bet.
When making a fold accumulator bet in football, you must get all the selections correct to win. For example:
You select:
You stake £10 on the four-fold accumulator.
All results were successful on match day, which means your £10 bet on the four-fold accumulator wins. Your total winnings for the bet are £151.20; and the profit you make is £141.20. A great payout for the four-fold accumulator.
If any of the four matches would not have ended in the result selected – for example, Southampton had only managed a draw – then the bet would have lost.
A fold bet only works if the results are successful. However, there are other multi-bet types that involves punters not getting all of their selections correct to win. These bet types include trixies, patents, yankees and more.
A fourfold or other fold football bet does involve risk. Punters need all their selections to be successful. However, if they are correct, punters can find plenty of profits for making such a wager.

If that sounds like you, we’re here to assist you. If you’ve stared at a board at a sportsbook or just seen spreads and moneylines on the Internet and been utterly confused, don’t worry. It’s not just you. Those numbers can be confounding.
But hopefully, once you’re done reading this, you’ll completely understand how they work. As you prepare to dive into the world of sports betting, here’s a breakdown of how the lines work, starting with …
It would be really easy to bet on a game if you could put money on a heavy favorite to win.
That’s where point spreads come in. Let’s look at an example:
Philadelphia Eagles (-4.5)
New York Giants (+4.5)
In this case, you can bet on either two outcomes: you can put money on the Eagles to win the game by 4.5 points OR MORE, which makes them the favorites. Or you can bet that the Giants will either win or lose by LESS THAN 4.5 points. They’re the underdogs.
Now, sometimes the spread “moves” during the days leading up to the game. Perhaps the Eagles’ spread ends up being -3.5 (in which they must win by 3.5 points or more to give you a victory in your bet). Your bet all depends on whichever spread you bet on, whether it was when the Eagles were favored by 4.5 or 3.5 points.
If you ever see “PK” or “pick” next to a team, it means there’s no spread and you can bet on who will win, no matter what the score is.
Let’s take that same example above but use moneylines:
Philadelphia Eagles (-200)
New York Giants (+150)
The team with a minus symbol is the favorite, and the number is how much money you would need to bet to win $100. In this case, you would have to bet $200 on the Eagles in order to win an additional $100.
The Giants are the underdogs. If they’re +150, that means you could bet $100 to win $150.
Note that you can bet any amount you want, but those numbers are always calculated and posted the same way, either in how much money you would need to wager to win $100 or how much money you could win by wagering $100.
If you’re betting on something like the team who will win the Super Bowl in the future, you might see it look like this:
New England Patriots — 3/1
Baltimore Ravens — 5/1
Kansas City Chiefs — 8/1
If you were betting on the Patriots and their 3/1 odds, you would win $3 for every $1 you spend. So if you bet $50 on the Pats and they ended up winning the Super Bowl, you’d win $150 (plus your original wager) back.
Good luck!
