What’s The Difference Between A Heinz Bet & A Super Heinz Bet?
As we’ve mentioned before, a Heinz bet consists of 57 bets in total. Whereas a Super Heinz consists of 120 separate bets of equal value. Below, we’ve listed you with the full breakdown of a Super Heinz bet. It’s important to remember that to make a Super Heinz bet, you’ll have to make seven betting selections, as opposed to the six betting selections included in a Heinz bet.
- 21 Doubles
- 35 Trebles
- 35 Four-Folds
- 21 Five-Folds
- 7 Six-Folds
- 1 Seven-Fold Accumulator
Heinz Bet or Lucky 63?
There isn’t too much of a difference between a Heinz bet and a Lucky 63 bet. The only difference is that a Lucky 63 bet includes each betting selection as a single, as well as all the different combinations that a Heinz bet does.
There are 57 separate bets involved in a Heinz Bet, but a Lucky 63 bet has you guessed it, 63 selections included, as you’re adding in the single bets, which aren’t included in a Heinz bet.
Once again, it’s important to remember that a Lucky 63 bet will see your stake multiplied by 63, as you’re covering 63 separate bets, which is one of the slight negatives with this type of bet, as some punters might be priced out of this, depending on the budget they have for betting.
Is A Heinz Bet Worth It?
A Heinz bet can be worth it for punters, although that can depend on the odds involved in a bettor’s Heinz bet. Some punters might not have a considerable amount of funds, so it might not be worth placing a Heinz bet, as the returns wouldn’t be worth it unless the punter is lucky enough to have winning selections for sizeable odds.
With any type of bet, it’s hugely important to gamble responsibly, and with funds that you can afford to lose. A Heinz bet is no different, and if anything, there should be added awareness of gambling responsibly with this type of bet, as whatever your stake is, it’ll be multiplied by 57, as that’s how many separate bets are included.
Pros
- Can be a sizeable profit with multiple bets covered.
- Odds dependent, you can see a big return from a relatively small stake.
Cons
- The stake can be much more than standard single, double, treble and accumulator bets.
- More risk is involved as you need at least two selections to win to see a return of some funds.
FAQ
If you were placing a horse racing Heinz bet, then it wouldn’t be any different to another sporting event on this bet type. It consists of six selections in total, but you’d have to include six horses from six different races for it to be a valid Heinz bet.
