Ahh The Union Jack, takes me back to my mid teens with 5p units.
What about the Round Robin, even today still not sure I understand it.
EACH WAY EQUALLY DIVIDED is also known as EACH WAY ALL EACH WAY
There’s a bet called an UP AND DOWN, though don’t know its structure
I used to do the occasional standard PATENT – 3 singles 3 doubles and a treble, though never the UNION JACK variant
There really should be a multiple called CAREY STREET
What’s the different in a each/way treble and one equally divided, Drone?

Andrew,
Ime, most punters don’t understand the Round Robin. Which is probably why I used to have the same argument on a weekly basis with punters who thought they should be getting back more than they should.
What’s the different in a each/way treble and one equally divided, Drone?
Each way goes place-to-place and win-to-win. Equally divided has the winnings from one leg split evenly between the win and place parts of the following leg.
If you get one placed, the winnings roll on to both the e/w part and win part of your other selections, rather than a traditional e/w acca where if you get a placed return it only rolls on the the other placed bets rather than the win ones.
Sorry if thats a big garbled, should probably have kept my ‘oar’ out!
A "Up and Down" bet is single stakes about, also sometimes known as a "cross bet".

The Each Way Equally Divided Method Explained
I recommend that many of the each way double bets in my daily column are now played each way equally divided. So today I thought I would share with you, how and when to play an each way double the equally divided way.
Not a lot of people know about this bet, which is sometimes known as Each Way All Each Way.
So what’s the difference between a normal each way double and an each way equally divided double?
Each Way Equally Divided is a way of getting round the problem of what happens when one of your selections wins, but the other one only places.
With Equally Divided the return is calculated after each leg of your multiple bet and that return is then re-invested in the next leg.
Basically you are playing the double in a different way based on the feeling that one of the two horses will win and maybe the other will only place.
Usually a place result on the first horse means that there is no win stake on the second horse. However via the each way equally divided method any RETURNS from the first horse are split 50/50 on the second horse.
So say we had a 5/4 place followed by a 6/1 winner. Under the normal EW double method you would in effect just have a place double which for a £25 EW stake would return £68.75
However placed the equally divided way, this bet would have been played like this (via internet is OK as 2 EW singles) 25 EW on 5/4 shot placed would return 31.25 The return is then split 50/50 so £15.61 EW on the 2nd horse which wins @ 6/1 So the final return would now be £143.61
Each way equally divided is NOT the bet to have when two horses both have a good chance of winning, however it comes into its own when the first horse is a decent price and places so that the second selection has win money applied and in certain circumstances where you don’t expect both of your selections to win.
If playing an each way double the equally divided way online, then you would place the double as two separate each way singles and calculate the stake for the second leg of the double after the result of the first leg.
If placing the bet in a traditional bookmakers shop then you must write on the betting slip when you place the bet that the bet is to be played equally divided.
Thanks Drone. I didn’t see The Boy’s posting previously as that make’s sense to. I always thought E/W treble was equally divided as explained…..

Another argument I’ve had with punters more times than I care

That article I pasted gives an example of when it’s theoretically advantageous to stipulate equally divided on EW multiples, though I’ve never really considered the maths simply believing that if the bookmakers’ default terms are win-win place-place then the alternative must prove to be better overall for the punter
I presume, though don’t know, that in addition to the usual EW Doubles, Trebles etc, equally divided terms are permitted on EW Accumulators too
