What is a Lucky 15?
A Lucky 15 is a wager consisting of 15 separate bets across 4 selections. It includes 4 singles, 6 doubles, 4 trebles, 1 fourfold accumulator. In a Lucky 15, every possible combination (‘permutation’) of selections is covered.
Bonuses are commonly added to Lucky 15 bets, which is where they get their name from. These can include an ‘all winner’ bonus if all your selections win, or a ‘one winner consolation’ if you only get one selection correct.
Unlike an accumulator, where all selections must win, a Lucky 15 offers returns even if only one of the selections is successful. This makes it a more flexible betting option with greater chances of a payout, even if the maximum payout is not as high for the same stake.
Try different combinations of selections on the Lucky 15 calculator to see how your bet could play out.
Lucky 15 Composition
A Lucky 15 covers all possible betting combinations using four different selections. Here’s a breakdown of the bet:
| Bet Type | Selection Combinations | Number of Bets |
|---|---|---|
| Singles | 1, 2, 3, 4 | 4 |
| Doubles | 12, 13, 14, 23, 24, 34 | 6 |
| Trebles | 123, 124, 134, 234 | 4 |
| Fourfold Accumulator | 1234 | 1 |
| 15 bets |
Since each selection is backed separately, you can still get a return, even if only one of your selections wins. However, just because you get a return from one selection doesn’t mean you will be in profit.
Lucky 15 Bonuses
Many bookmakers offer special promotions on Lucky 15 bets to enhance winnings. These commonly include:
- One Winner Consolation – If only one selection wins, the bookmaker may double the odds (or better) of that selection.
- All Winner Bonus – If all four selections win, an extra 10% to 20% bonus can be added to your total payout.
These bonuses make the Lucky 15 an appealing choice, as they provide increased payouts even if results don’t go entirely your way.
How Does an Each-Way Lucky 15 Work?
An each-way Lucky 15 is a variation that covers both winning and placing selections. This doubles the number of bets to 30 because each selection is backed twice:
- One bet for the selection to win
- One bet for the selection to place (e.g., finishing in the top three in a horse race)
This increases the chances of getting a return, even if some selections don’t win outright. However, since the number of bets doubles, the stake also doubles.
Lucky 15 Pros and Cons
Pros
✓ Higher chances of a return – Even if only one selection wins, you still get a payout.
✓ Bonuses – Many bookmakers offer enhanced payouts for winning or single-selection results.
✓ More flexibility – Unlike accumulators, you don’t need all selections to win to see some returns.
Cons
✘ Can still lose money – If only one selection wins, the payout might be small and not high enough to recover your overall stake.
✘ Lower returns than an accumulator – Because a Lucky 15 includes singles and smaller multiples, the potential returns are lower than a standard fourfold accumulator.
Similar Bets
If you like the Lucky 15, you might be interested in these alternative multiple bets:
- Lucky 31 – A bet with five selections, totaling 31 bets.
- Lucky 63 – A bet with six selections, totaling 63 bets.
- Patent – A smaller version of a Lucky 15, with three selections and 7 bets.
- Canadian (Super Yankee) – Similar to a Yankee but with five selections and 26 bets.
Lucky 15 Bet vs. Yankee Bet
A Yankee is a similar bet to a Lucky 15, but it does not include single bets.
| Bet Type | Number of Selections | Includes Singles? | Total Bets |
|---|---|---|---|
| Lucky 15 | 4 | Yes | 15 |
| Yankee | 4 | No | 11 |
The key difference is that a Lucky 15 includes single bets, which means you can still get a payout even if only one selection wins. A Yankee, on the other hand, requires at least two winning selections to get any return.
Final Thoughts
A Lucky 15 is a great option for bettors who want multiple chances to win without relying on all selections.
While the maximum payout isn’t as high as a simple accumulator for the same total stake, the bonuses and individual payouts make it a more balanced choice, allowing you to make a profit even if some selections fail to win. Play with different selections on the calculator to find a strategy that works for you.
