I think they've clocked on and aren't going to let anyone do accumulators any more considering how much they had to pay out last month.

Easy money would be on Sheamus though although it won't be a lot..

The ultra predictable Over the Limit no doubt lost them a bit of money too.


I could see Del Rio, who has been built strongly, going over via DQ or countout, to set up a payoff at Summerslam. But then they booked that finish months ago on Smackdown.

Cena seems a certain for the MITB ladder match seeing as a heel will win the world title version.

Can somebody tell me how the accumulator works ? hopefully Punk gets 4/1 or 5/1 odds , 1/2 is riduclous especially when you consider what happened last night when Punk rejected AJ's proposal. Oh JigsawKrueger i like your avatar with my cousin Fergal Devitt in it.
Not great at math, but basically the bet doubles up each time. They won't give 4/1 etc odds on wrestling due to it being fixed and a two horse race so to speak. But if you can predict the winners of 3 or 4 matches you get make a decent profit on a small wager.

Thanks, Devitt is a great wrestler. Been watching his stuff in Japan.



By the way, they are now offering an accumulator AND odds on the world title MITB. 9/1 for Damien Sandow is pretty decent to be honest.

Won quite a lot on Wimbledon last week so I've put £60 on over 6 bets.

£10 on Ziggler wins £22.50
£10 on Cena wins £12
£10 on Sheamus wins £6.67
£10 on Ziggler/Cena/Sheamus wins £109.17
£10 on Ziggler/Cena/Sheamus/Bryan wins £287.92
£10 on Cody/Cena/Sheamus wins £ 81.67

Hoping they add the Tag Title match. Easy money on that if they do.

I think Del Rio will get another match against Sheamus at SummerSlam.
Feud's been going on for ages though. It's the third PPV attempt at their 1v1, would it really continue for another one?

I wouldn't recommend betting on the World title MITB as tempting as it is to go for Rhodes. I'd say it's between him & Ziggler, but I didn't think Bryan had a chance last year or Kane the year before.

The same can almost be said for Punk & Bryan. With Sheamus & Del Rio, they've not met one on one for a while. I can't even remember their last singles match on PPV. They were supposed to meet last month at NWO but didn't. Del Rio was in the four way at OTL but this is their first singles feud over the world title. I just think it could go on with Sheamus getting DQ'd the way the intensity's been built up over the last 8 days. I might well be wrong but I'm not 100% certain, or anyone near to bet against some type of Del Rio win.

I've gone for:
£10 on Del Rio, Cody, Punk & Cena - wins £163.25
£22.36 on Cody, Punk & Cena - wins £162.11
£140 on Punk & Cena - wins £322

I've managed to build my account up to £1472.36 since I won £130 on Rovers going down from a £30 bet. It leaves me £1300 after this so I'm happy.:) I'm not letting the odds drift this time like No Way Out. Sheamus's odds drifted big time. That's not happening to me again!

Now to find some more horses to place for tonight.

Could be right with Cena but anyone having a bet i agree that the Sheamus match might be sketchy there could be a DQ or something in there, i think the ADR feud might go on for a little while longer so i'd stay clear of betting on Sheamus at least for MITB for now.

Bet $8000 on Punk winning. Free money.

It goes on the winner of the match, not the title, so if Sheamus gets DQ'd then ADR wins. Don't think he will get DQ'd. Can't see them doing a rematch at Summerslam and even so the aim of this title reign is to put Sheamus over really strong so he should win clean no matter what.

Draw I'd imagine they just refund the bets.

Punk is the more risky one for not winning than Sheamus. Strong chance AJ screws him or calls for some DQ where Bryan wins but Punk keeps the belt.

I'll give as easy example as I can.

In a Double/Treble/Accum, all multiples go up by 1 point.

I'll give examples using my own made up odds to make it as easy as possible. Obviously all fixed odds won't be as straight forward as 2/1, 4/1 etc, some are awkward to calculate. 5/2 becomes 7/2. That isn't easy to calculate in your head.

Anyway. . .

e.g, If I want to do a double of CM Punk @ 2/1 and Alberto Del Rio @ 4/1, it becomes 1 point added onto each bet and then the new odds are multiplied by eachother.

* = multiplied by

So €5 on the above bet becomes 5(3/1 (formerly 2/1) *5/1 (formerly 4/1)
5(3*5)
5(15)
€75 winnings. Plus your €5 stake, so it becomes €80 altogether.

Lets do a treble.

CM Punk @ 2/1, Alberto Del Rio @ 4/1 and also Tensai @14/1.

All go up 1 betting point. CM Punk becomes 3/1, Del Rio 5/1, Tensai 15/1.

I'm putting €2 on this treble.

2(3*5*15)

2(225)

€450 profit if they all win. ----> €452 full return.

It works the same for all multiple bets. I'll just show a 5 man accumulator here to give one last example.

CM Punk @ 2/1,Alberto Del Rio @ 4/1, Tensai @14/1, John Cena @ 1/1 and also Layla @ 4/1

Hypothetically we'll put €10 on this and remember, all odds go up by 1 point.

So. . 10(3*5*15*2*5)

10(2250)

€22500 profit. €22510 full return (including your stake)

Again, these are all basic odds, but are very handy.

There are odds calculators online too which help calculate potential winnings:

Just type in the odds of the bets you are thinking of and it automatically calculates them. I just thought it'd be cool to explain how they get the final winnings for people that didn't know.

Odds Calculator

Just checked my own calculations there and they are right. PHWEW :p

Good luck :)

In regards to a draw being the result..

Nah, it's bs, but if the match is a draw, it's a losing bet. It's wrong really, since you can't actually bet on a draw.

It happened recently, a friend of mine had a monkey on a Boxing Match that ended in a technical draw due to a head collision early on. He was sure the bet would be refunded, but after speaking to Live Help and also asking others in the know, his bet was a loss. He was obviously pissed off since you can't bet on a technical draw, but what can you do.

Different bookmakers have different rules. These are Paddy Power's rules though.

This is bound to be the payoff for Punk & Bryan and they won't end it on a DQ and all the rumours have said that it'll be Cena/Punk for the title at SummerSlam for a while now. AJ won't turn heel either, meaning she won't screw Punk over and cost him the title. . . At least I hope so but I'm positive he'll win & retain.

I'm 50/50 on Sheamus. There's no other heel he'll realistically face at SummerSlam and the only match I can see him having other than a rematch with Del Rio is Orton when he comes back. They're really making it look like it could continue and getting Sheamus seriously pissed that there could be a DQ.
