At Parimatch, we make it quick and painless to determine your potential winning from an each-way double bet. Explore our each-way double calculator, which gives you a fast breakdown of your likely returns. 

Can You Place an Each-Way Double on Multiple Sports? 

Each-way doubles are particularly popular in horse racing betting, but there’s no reason why you can’t use them in football betting, tennis betting and even golf betting. 

Essentially, any sport that offers each-way place odds is eligible for use in an each-way double. The principles are the same, whichever sport you want to bet on. 

Combining Each-Way and Double Bets to Spread Your Risk 

If you choose to combine each-way bets into double bets, you’re effectively covering more possible outcomes, thereby increasing your chances of a return.  

Even if both of your selections don’t win, there’s still an opportunity to receive a payout, so long as both selections place, albeit at much lower odds. 

An each-way double provides an essential balance between risk and reward, covering potential losses if either selection doesn’t perform at their best in their respective events. 

If you’re looking for an easy way to compute the potential returns on the combined win and place bets with speed and efficiency, read on to discover how our each-way double calculator works in practice:  

Breaking Down the Features of the Calculator 

The each-way double calculator simplifies the inner workings of any each-way double bet placed with a Parimatch account.  

You can set your stake size, and it’ll spread the wager across two selections on win and place terms. The tool handles multiple odds formats and each-way fractions, giving you a clear and instant breakdown of potential payouts. 

Inputs Needed for Accurate Each-Way Double Calculations 

If you want the most accurate calculations for your next each-way double, you’ll need several key pieces of information to enter into the tool.  

This starts with your total stake, the odds for each selection to win – either in decimal or fractional format – and the place terms, i.e. 1/4 or 1/5 of the odds to win. Make sure these inputs are correct to enable the calculator to do its work for you. 

An Example of Using the Each-Way Double Calculator 

Let’s suppose that you fancied packaging two each-way bets on selections in two races during the Cheltenham Festival. Below, we’ll talk about how you’d use our each-way double calculator: 

• Set your ‘Stake’ 
  In the ‘Enter Stake’ box, set the maximum amount you wish to risk across the bet. 
   
• Enter the win odds on your first selection 
  In ‘Outcome #1’, set your win odds for your selection in the Supreme Novices’ Hurdle. 
   
• Enter the win odds on your second selection 
  In ‘Outcome #2’, set your win odds for your selection in the Champion Hurdle. 
   
• Hit ‘Yes’ on the Each way button 
  Toggle ‘Yes’ on the Each way button to cover place and win bets. 
   
• Set the ‘Place’ terms 
  In the ‘Place’ column, set the fraction of odds paid out for place bets. 
   
• Hit ‘Calculate’ 
  Click the yellow ‘Calculate’ button to view the potential return or profit. There’s also a box to tick if you wish to use bonus funds towards your each-way double. 

Reducing Risk with Informed Bets 

Risk-averse sports bettors will like using each-way double betting. If you pick strong selections to win or place, you improve your prospects of securing a payout, even if your selections don’t win outright. The onus is, therefore, on you to make selective picks based on form and the latest available odds. 

Streamlining Complex Betting Strategies 

Our each-way double calculator also simplifies sophisticated sports betting strategies and systems. It offers instant calculations for combined win and place bets. This tool automates this process, allowing you to focus on finding the right markets and odds for your double bets. 

• Misunderstanding stake distribution 
  Some bettors forget that an each-way double requires separate bets on each outcome – one on your selection to win outright and one for placing. In essence, the total stake is doubled. 
   
• Overlooking non-runners and voids 
  If one of your selections is a non-runner or voided, it impacts the overall double, slashing your potential returns or even voiding the overall bet in some circumstances. 
   
• Not accounting for Rule 4 deductions 
  In horse racing betting, if the odds are cut following a late withdrawal of a horse, Rule 4 deductions can alter your potential returns and must be considered in your calculations. 
   
• Misjudging the odds 
  Some bettors make the mistake of taking unfavourable odds for each-way betting. The bet may not provide sufficient value if the place odds are too low. 
   
• Ignoring each-way terms 
  The betting markets for different sports vary in place terms. Some sports pay out for the first two places, while others pay out for the first three, four, or five places. Be sure to read the terms and conditions before placing any such bet. 
   
• Not using responsible gambling tools to control your staking 
  Visit our Safer Gambling Portal to control your deposit and loss limits over a day, week or month and keep your sports betting in check. 

So, use our each-way betting calculator today to calculate your odds and bet on more than one outcome on any of your favourite sports.
