What Is a Lucky 31 Bet?
A Lucky 31 takes 5 selections and turns them into 31 separate bets: 5 singles (each selection alone), 10 doubles (every pairing), 10 trebles (every group of 3), 5 fourfolds (every group of 4), and 1 fivefold (all 5 together). Because every selection also runs on its own, even 1 winner out of 5 guarantees some money back.
| Bet Type | Selections | Bet Lines | Min. Winners |
|---|---|---|---|
| Canadian (Super Yankee) | 5 | 26 | 2 |
| Lucky 31 | 5 | 31 | 1 |
A Lucky 31 is a Canadian with 5 singles added on top — same 5 selections, but full cover means a return from just 1 winner instead of needing 2. See our full bet calculator for every bet type.
How Does the Lucky 31 Bet Calculator Work?
The calculator builds all 31 bet lines from your 5 selections and totals the stake and return across them:
- 5 Singles — each selection on its own
- 10 Doubles — every pair of your 5 selections
- 10 Trebles — every group of 3 selections
- 5 Fourfolds — every group of 4 selections
- 1 Fivefold — all 5 selections combined
- Total Stake = Unit Stake × 31
Enter your 5 sets of odds — fractional or decimal — and your unit stake, and the calculator works out every combination for you, including any bookmaker bonus if all 5 selections win.
Total Stake by Unit Stake
| Unit Stake | Total Stake (31 lines) |
|---|---|
| 10p | £3.10 |
| 50p | £15.50 |
| £1 | £31 |
| £2 | £62 |
Each Way Lucky 31 Bet Calculator
An each way Lucky 31 doubles the total stake, since it runs a win Lucky 31 and a place Lucky 31 side by side — 62 bet lines in total. Tick the E/W box and enter your each way terms — the calculator works out both parts separately, then shows the combined return.
Example Calculation
5 selections at evens (2.00), 6/4 (2.50), 2/1 (3.00), 5/2 (3.50) and 3/1 (4.00), £1 unit stake (£31 total):
- 5 singles combined: £15.00
- 10 doubles combined: £88.75
- 10 trebles combined: £258.75
- 5 fourfolds combined: £371.50
- 1 fivefold: 2.00 × 2.50 × 3.00 × 3.50 × 4.00 = £210
- Return if all 5 win: £944 (£913 profit on £31 staked, before any bookmaker bonus)
FAQs
Is a Lucky 31 bet calculator free to use?
Yes. Every calculator on this site, including the Lucky 31 bet calculator, is completely free — no account or sign-up needed.
How many winners do I need for a Lucky 31 to pay out?
Just 1 of your 5 selections. Even with the other 4 losing, the winning single still returns something, and many bookmakers add a consolation bonus on top.
Does the calculator include bookmaker bonuses?
Many bookmakers offer a Lucky 31 bonus — extra winnings if all 5 selections win, and sometimes a boost if only 1 wins. Terms vary and change often, so check the specific bookmaker's current offer before you bet.
What's the difference between a Lucky 31 and a Canadian?
Both use 5 selections. A Lucky 31 is 31 bet lines (adds 5 singles) and pays out on just 1 winner. A Canadian is 26 bet lines (no singles) and needs 2 winners minimum — cheaper, but less cover. Use our Canadian calculator to compare the two.
