How many bets are in a Super Heinz?
A Super Heinz consists of 120 bets across seven different selections. Put simply, it involves placing multiple bets within one larger bet.
It is named after the Heinz bet, which consists of 57 bets across six different selections. The Super Heinz features one extra selection, which makes it ‘Super’.
How does a Super Heinz bet work?
A Super Heinz first requires you to make your seven selections.
These bets are commonly made when betting on horse racing (but is also commonplace in football betting), so, in this case, seven selections simply means picking seven different horses.
For example, let’s say your selections are:
-
Horse A to win the 12:30
-
Horse B to win the 13:10
-
Horse C to win the 13:50
-
Horse D to win the 14:30
-
Horse E to win the 15:10
-
Horse F to win the 16:00
-
Horse G to win the 16:40
A bet will then be placed on all possible doubles, trebles, four-folds, five-folds, and six-folds among your selections, along with the seven-fold.
Unlike a standard accumulator bet, which requires all your selections to win, a Super Heinz adds a form of insurance in that just two of the seven need to come in for a return. That return is unlikely to cover your initial stake, but the return can be very high should several of your horses win.
Super Heinz bet example wins:
-
21 double bets: Of your double bets, if only Horse A and Horse B win, you can expect a small return—this is because just one of your 21 double bets has landed. If Horse C also wins, though, you’ll receive winnings for three separate doubles (A and B, B and C, and C and A).
-
35 treble bets: If Horse A, Horse B, and Horse C City win, you’ll also receive a greater pay-out as you’ve secured a treble too (plus payouts from corresponding doubles). If Horse D also wins, you’ll receive payouts from A, B, C, as well as horses A, B, and D; horses B, C, and D; and horses A, C, and D.
Your treble bet will pay out more than your double because you’re betting on more selections (with the betting odds multiplying across these selections). So, the more teams that win, the greater the potential payout due to the combination of multiple bets – especially with combinations like trebles, or high four-fold or five-fold bets.

How do I place a Super Heinz?
All you need to do to place a Super Heinz is head to the Betway sportsbook and pick out your seven selections.
Once those selections are in your betslip, simply scroll down to the Super Heinz option and enter your stake.
How much does a Super Heinz bet cost?
It is important to understand that the 120 bets within a Super Heinz are treated separately, so you are essentially placing 120 bets at once.
This means that your stake will be multiplied by 120.
So, if you place a £1 win-only Super Heinz, it would cost you £120.
Can I place an each-way Super Heinz bet?
Yes, you can place an each-way Super Heinz accumulator bet.
It is important to note, though, that an each-way Super Heinz consists of 240 bets instead of 120. This is because you are backing each selection to win and each selection to place.
A £1 each-way Super Heinz across your 120 selections would therefore cost £240.
To place an each-way Super Heinz, simply tick the E/W box next to each of your selections in your betslip.
How do I calculate a Super Heinz bet?
