It is the biggest of the "Lucky" bets. At £1 a line it costs £63 win only, so it suits small stakes on a card of six selections.
How the return is worked out
Each line is settled on its own: the line stake times the decimal odds of every selection in it, multiplied together. A losing selection makes every line it is in return nothing. A void selection counts as odds of 1.0. For each way bets the place part uses place odds: (decimal odds − 1) × place fraction + 1.
line return = stake × odds₁ × odds₂ × … and total return = sum of all line returns
Worked example
£1 a line: A at 2/1 (won), B at 5/2 (won), C at 3/1 (won), D at 6/4 (lost), E at 7/2 (lost), F at 11/4 (won). Total stake £63.00.
