How do you calculate a Trixie Bet?
Think of a trixie bet as a hybrid: Like an accumulator, it’s a multiple bet. But unlike an accumulator, you don’t need every one of your selections to be a winner before you qualify for a payout. So you’re still getting some of the advantage of a better combined-odds return, but with an insurance giving you some margin for error.
One slight drawback to consider is that, because a trixie offers you more chances of winning than an accumulator bet, your stake will be higher. That means your overall profit may be slightly reduced. However, before you commit, you can always check out your potential returns online using a free trixie bet calculator.

Bet Breakdown
What is a Trixie bet?
A Trixie bet (or just a 'trixie') involves placing multiple bets. In this case, four bets – three doubles plus one treble bet – on three selections, which must all be in different events. And for your trixie to pay out, at least two or more of your selections must be correct.
The major advantage a trixie offers is that you can afford to have two of your four selections fail to win and still realise a profit on your investment. If you are betting on modest odds of around 2/1 or below, it’s best to choose a 'win only' trixie. But with bigger prices, an 'each-way' bet becomes an option to consider.
