8. Multi Bet
A Multi bet enables you to effectively “all-up” your investment across sports and betting options of your choice, maximising your return whilst sticking to what you know. The dividend is calculated by multiplying the prices of each selection together.
A TAB Multi can be made up of between a minimum of two (2) and a maximum of twenty (20) different fixed odds sport or racing options. Each of these is referred to as a leg with one selection required for each leg. Sport and racing fixed odds options are permitted in the same Multi. However, you may only include a maximum of ten (10) racing legs in any single Multi. The minimum investment for a TAB Multi is $1 and the bet can be placed via the EBT or by using the Multi cards available in-store. The majority of TAB betting options will be allowed in a TAB Multi, however some options will be excluded from either single betting or multiple betting. If so, TAB will identify single only markets for your information. The added advantage of placing a Multi through the tab.com.au is that you can access System Multi betting.
9. System and Super Multi
A Systems Multi allows you to select multiple combinations within the same Multi, giving you more ways to win. Plus, you can include up to five legs of racing or a maximum of five different legs. Add Flexi betting and you have one super strength Multi. System betting allows you to take different combinations across your selected legs. Use the system functionality to hedge against an unexpected result or give yourself the chance to win more if all legs are successful. The easiest way to think of the system number is the minimum number of legs that your bets must be successful to get a return.
The new Super Multi allows you to select multiple combinations within the same Multi, giving you more ways to win. Plus, you can now include up to five legs of racing or a maximum of five different legs. Add Flexi betting and you have one super-strength Multi.
10. Cross Sport & Racing
Sport and racing in the one multi. A maximum of five racing legs can be included in this betting.
11. System Betting
In system betting select combinations in addition to the straight all-up. The system number is the number of legs over which the bets must be successful in order to get a return
`12. Flexi Betting
Flexi betting allows you to nominate a total spend for your bet. Total spend gets split evenly across all combinations. a traditional Multi, you only win if all legs are successful. With a Super Multi, you can take “Systems” within your original selections, giving you multiple combinations within the same Multi. This means that you aren’t required to win every single leg to get a return, and the more legs that are successful, the more times you win.
