Trixie

Three selections in four bets: three doubles and one treble. You need at least two winners to see a return.

A Trixie is a full-cover bet on three selections made up of four bets: three doubles and one treble.

How it works

There are no singles, so you need at least two of your three selections to win before you see any return. The pay-off is partial cover: one losing selection doesn't wipe you out the way it would in a straight treble.

Worked example

Three winners at 2.0 each on £1 units (£4 total) returns the three doubles (£4 each = £12) plus the treble (£8) = £20.

Pros

  • Cover if one selection loses
  • More reward than three separate doubles

Cons

  • No singles — two winners needed for any return
  • Four bets means four units staked

Tips

  • Good when you're confident in two of three picks.
  • Remember the stake is 4× your unit.
