Treble Bet | What’s A Treble Bet? How Does It Work?

  • A treble is a bet on three separate selections, requiring all three to win for the bettor to receive a payout.

What Is A Treble Bet?

A treble bet is a type of bet involving three selections, where all three must win for the bettor to receive a payout. This bet merges three individual bets into one, multiplying the single/win odds of each selection together, thus offering significant potential returns.

To place a treble bet, the bettor chooses three events or games and places bets on all three. For instance, in football, a bettor might bet on three separate matches, predicting the winning team in each. All three teams need to win for the treble bet to succeed.

If any of the selections lose, the entire bet is lost. If one of the selections is cancelled or postponed, the outcome of the bet depends on the specific rules of the betting provider or the sport’s governing body. It often means that selection will be removed and the odds for your treble bet will be adjusted accordingly. However, in some cases the treble will be voided, and the stake returned to the bettor.

It’s essential for bettors to familiarise themselves with the terms and conditions of their chosen bookmaker to understand how different outcomes affect their bets.

Example

Let’s say you place a ￡10 treble bet on three football matches with odds of 2.0, 3.0, and 4.0.

  • If all three teams win their respective matches, the total return will be ￡240 (￡10 x 2.0 x 3.0 x 4.0), with ￡230 profit.
  • If one or more teams lose their matches, the entire bet is lost.

Another way of looking at it is that the winnings from the the first bet (￡20) are rolled onto the second bet at 3.0. Then those winnings (￡60) are rolled onto the third bet at odds of 4.0.

What To Look For In A Treble Bet

Here are some key considerations for selecting treble bets:

Value Odds

Look for three selections where the bookmaker has underrated their true potential. In simpler terms, the odds assigned to these selections are higher than anticipated, offering you the chance for a larger payout.

Confidence

Try to prioritise your strongest picks – the ones you have thoroughly researched and analysed, and those you believe are most likely to succeed. Avoid the temptation to include selections simply to fulfil the bet.

Risk/Reward Balance

Strive for a balanced risk-reward ratio when placing treble bets.

Assess the success probability of each selection to gauge associated risk levels. Higher risk typically corresponds to lower probabilities of success for one or more selections.

If one selection offers notably favourable odds, consider placing a separate single bet on that outcome to reduce overall risk.

Also, be sure to adjust the size of your treble bets to minimise potential losses and protect your bankroll.
