Break-even win rate at 13/8
The implied probability of 13/8 is about 38.10% (1 ÷ the exact decimal odds, shown rounded). That is the break-even win rate: if you bet this price many times on win-or-lose bets, you need to win more often than that to come out ahead. Whether a 13/8 bet is good value depends only on whether your honest estimate of the chance beats that number — the EV calculator does the comparison.
13/8 in a double or treble
A double of two 13/8 selections combines to decimal odds of ≈ 6.89 (+589, rounded): a £100 double pays £689.06 if both win. A treble: decimal ≈ 18.09 (+1709, rounded), paying £1,808.79 on £100. For independent selections from different events, those prices imply a break-even chance of about 5.53% for all three winning — an implied figure that includes each price’s margin, not a forecast; bookmakers may refuse or reprice related selections. Payouts use the exact, unrounded combined odds. Build your own with the accumulator calculator.
