A Canadian Bet, also known as a Super Yankee, is a type of combination bet that includes 26 individual bets involving five different selections. This intricate betting method is particularly popular among experienced bettors who seek to diversify their wagering strategies. Essentially, a Canadian Bet covers all possible combinations of singles, doubles, trebles, four-folds, and a five-fold accumulator from the chosen selections.
- 5 Singles: One bet per each selection.
- 10 Doubles: Two selections combined in each bet.
- 10 Trebles: Three selections combined in each bet.
- 5 Four-Folds: Four selections combined in each bet.
- 1 Five-Fold Accumulator: All five selections combined into one bet.
The advantage of a Canadian Bet lies in its ability to yield returns even if not all selections win. However, due to the large number of bets placed, the initial stake can be quite high. This type of bet is most beneficial when the bettor has a strong confidence in their selections and seeks to maximize potential returns through multiple winning combinations.
