Have you ever thought to yourself ‘What is a Yankee bet?’ but not been certain how it works? Have a read of our explanation below.
A Yankee bet is one that consists of four selections, with 11 bets included for a Win bet or 22 for an Each Way bet. This bet is very similar to a Lucky 15 but, as you may notice, the Yankee does not include Singles on the selections, just permutations of more than one selection.
The bet includes doubles, trebles and a four fold.
To guarantee any returns on a Win selection, at least two out of four of the selections must win. Similarly, to guarantee any returns on an Each Way selection, at least two out of four of the selections must place.
As there are a number of small bets involved in the Super Yankee, a £1 Win Yankee would cost you £11, where as a £1 Each Way Yankee would cost you £22.
