What is a double bet?

A double bet is the simplest way of making an accumulator/combination of bets. When placing a double bet, you are betting on 2 outcomes in 2 events on the same betslip. Both outcomes must be correct for you to win the double bet. The 2 separate odds are multiplied with each other and then the stake to determine your return.

Example of a double bet

For example, if you place a double bet with a stake of £10 on Barcelona to beat Atletico Madrid at odds 1/1 (Evens) and Manchester City to beat Liverpool at odds 1/1 (Evens) your return will be £40 (3/1*£10=£40) if both teams win their respective matches and your profit will be £30 (£40-£10=£30). If Barça or The Citizens does not win their match your stake is lost.

Pros and cons of a double bet

The pro of a double bet is that it results in more profit than placing 2 single bets. The con of a double bet is that the risk is higher because if 1 of the outcomes is not correct then the whole stake is lost.

Illustration of a winning double bet:

Game and result Bet Odds (fraction) Outcome
Barcelona (2) – Atletico Madrid (1) Barcelona win 1/1 (Evens) Win
Manchester City (2) – Liverpool (0) Manchester City win 1/1 (Evens) Win

Illustration of a losing double bet:

Game and result Bet Odds (fraction) Outcome
Barcelona (2) – Atletico Madrid (1) Barcelona win 1/1 (Evens) Win
Manchester City (2) – Liverpool (2) Manchester City win 1/1 (Evens) Win

How to use the bet calculator

It's easy to use the Unibet Betting Odds Calculator. First, you need to decide which type of bet you want, of which we have many, from singles, accumulators to Goliaths and Lucky 15s, 31 s and 63s.

Once you've chosen, select your bet type on the calculator (which we've broken out with easy navigational links in the menu) and then decide if you want the odds to be displayed in a fractional or decimal format in the top right corner.

After that, you'll need to input your stake - how much you want to bet. You'll then want to decide if that bet is each way, add any rule 4s, and whether you want to see the selection notes or fold options. We've put a tooltip text over some of these, to give you some explanation if they're unfamiliar. Finally, enter the odds and the outcome: Winner, Lost, Void and/or Dead Heat. If there are multiple selections you would like to make, enter the odds for each one. Simply click the 'Calculate Now' option and both your potential return and profit will be displayed for you.
