What is a Lucky 15 Bet Calculator?

Below is Paddy Power’s Lucky 15 bet calculator. Paddy’s designed it so you can easily figure out how much profit you stand to win from a Lucky 15 bet.

A Lucky 15 is made up of 15 bets that are of equal value on selections spread over four different events. It’s most commonly used in horse racing but you can place Lucky 15s on other sports too.

Here’s a Lucky 15 breakdown:

  • 4x singles
  • 6x doubles
  • 4x trebles
  • 1x four-fold acca

As you can see from the above, you stand to earn a return on your Lucky 15 bet so long as one selection wins.

For all of the rewarding features of a Lucky 15 bet, there are some notable calculations that need to take place in order to work out your potential profit.

And that’s where Paddy steps in. Paddy Power’s Lucky 15 bet calculator gives you an immediate indication of how much your bet could yield.

All you need to do is input a few details before the online bet calculator reveals your possible returns.

Here’s the Lucky 15 bet calculator – and you can read more about how it works below!

How does the Lucky 15 Bet Calculator work?

Paddy’s Lucky 15 calculator is a useful tool for understanding your potential returns. Punters use it to gauge whether a bet is worth placing, or to help strategise their betting activity.

The calculator brings together all four selections and figures out the 15 separate combinations to provide you with a maximum return from your Lucky 15 bet.

All you have to do is fill in the variables – including odds, stake and conditions – to produce the end result.What’s more, you can then immediately bet with Paddy Power and turn your calculated odds into a real Lucky 15 bet.

How to use a Lucky 15 Bet Calculator?

Using the Lucky 15 odds calc is easy. Scroll above this section to the calculator and first choose your preferred odds type.

Then, enter your stake. Remember a Lucky 15 consists of 15 separate bets, so your stake will be multiplied by 15.

Next, enter the odds of each of your selections. You can choose whether the win, lose, or are void. This is important because you might be calculating how much you stand to win after a selection has lost.

From there, add any conditions that may affect the bet. You’ll then see your potential returns and profit at the bottom of the betting calculator!

Lucky 15 bet calculator example

Let’s look at the Lucky 15 calculator in action. We’ll use horse racing betting for our example.

Say you want to bet on four horses to win across four races at Doncaster, as follows:

  • Horse A – 4/1
  • Horse B – 6/1
  • Horse C – 2/1
  • Horse D – 2/1

You plan to place a £1 stake, meaning your overall bet will come to £15.

To see your potential winnings, first, select Lucky 15 as your bet type before choosing the type of odds you want (fractional or decimal).

Then, confirm your £1 stake and enter the odds for each horse in the calculator. Assuming there are no conditions, you’ll see your returns at £767 with a £752 profit.

If you’re midway through the raceday and one of your selections loses then you can tweak that line in the Lucky 15 calculator to see your adjusted winnings.

So, if Horse B loses, then your returns come to £95 with an £80 profit.

How Lucky 15 RULE 4 works?

Rule 4 recalculates your bet if a big favourite pulls out before an event. If this happens for you, the odds for all the other runners in your selected race are shortened relative to the rule’s formula.

You can apply Rule 4 to your bet calculator and see what your true return will be.

WHAT IS Lucky 15 EACH WAY?

Each way is a betting option that splits your ‘win’ bet in two, so half of the stake backs a win and half goes on a ‘place’ (usually a second, third, or fourth-place finish).

The aim of an each way selection within a Lucky 15 bet is to spread risk. If your horse wins, you win both halves of the bet. If your horse places, you only win the ‘place’ half. Enter the EW price when selecting Each Way in the bet calculator to discover your payout.

How Lucky 15 DEAD HEATs work?

A dead heat happens when multiple selections win the same event. In horse racing, it occurs when two or more horses cross the line at exactly the same moment.

When this happens, winnings are divided by the number of winners. So, a two-way dead heat results in 50% of winnings for each successful bet. This can affect your Lucky 15.
