FAQ
Frequently asked questions
What is a Lucky 31 bet?
A Lucky 31 is a UK system bet on 5 selections made up of 31 bets: 5 singles, 10 doubles, 10 trebles, 5 4-folds, 1 5-folds. Because it includes singles, one winner is enough to get a return.
How much does a £1 Lucky 31 cost?
31 bets at £1 each cost £31.00. Each-way doubles the number of bets to 62, so a £1 each-way Lucky 31 costs £62.00.
What does a £1 Lucky 31 pay if every selection wins at evens?
£242.00 in total — a profit of £211.00 on the £31.00 stake.
What if one selection loses?
Only the bets containing that selection lose. With the example odds on this page (5/1, 3/1, 2/1, 7/2, 4/1) and the last selection losing, a £1 Lucky 31 still returns £769.00.
Are bookmaker bonuses included?
No. Some bookmakers add bonuses or consolations to Lucky 31 bets (for example extra odds when only one selection wins). Those terms vary, so we show the standard settlement only.
