What Is a Yankee Bet?
A Yankee takes 4 selections and turns them into 11 separate bets: 6 doubles (every pairing), 4 trebles (every group of 3), and 1 fourfold (all 4 together). There are no singles in a Yankee, so at least 2 of your 4 selections need to win before you see any return.
| Bet Type | Selections | Bet Lines |
|---|---|---|
| Trixie | 3 | 4 |
| Yankee | 4 | 11 |
| Lucky 15 | 4 | 15 |
A Yankee is the 4-selection equivalent of a Trixie — no singles, 2 winners minimum. A Lucky 15 uses the same 4 selections but adds 4 singles for full cover. See our full bet calculator for every bet type.
How Does the Yankee Bet Calculator Work?
The calculator builds all 11 bet lines from your 4 selections and totals the stake and return across them:
- 6 Doubles — every pair of your 4 selections
- 4 Trebles — every group of 3 selections
- 1 Fourfold — all 4 selections combined
- Total Stake = Unit Stake × 11
Enter your 4 sets of odds — fractional or decimal — and your unit stake, and the calculator works out every combination for you.
Total Stake by Unit Stake
| Unit Stake | Total Stake (11 lines) |
|---|---|
| 50p | £5.50 |
| £1 | £11 |
| £5 | £55 |
Each Way Yankee Bet Calculator
An each way Yankee doubles the total stake, since it runs a win Yankee and a place Yankee side by side — 22 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
4 selections at 2/1 (3.00), 3/1 (4.00), 4/1 (5.00) and 5/1 (6.00), £1 unit stake (£11 total):
- 6 doubles combined: £46
- 4 trebles combined: £335
- 1 fourfold: 3.00 × 4.00 × 5.00 × 6.00 = £360
- Return if all 4 win: £741 (£730 profit on £11 staked)
FAQs
Is a Yankee bet calculator free to use?
Yes. Every calculator on this site, including the Yankee bet calculator, is completely free — no account or sign-up needed.
How many winners do I need for a Yankee to pay out?
At least 2 of your 4 selections. With exactly 2 winners, you get a return from the one matching double.
What's the difference between a Yankee and a Lucky 15?
Both use 4 selections. A Yankee is 11 bet lines (no singles) and needs 2 winners minimum. A Lucky 15 is 15 bet lines (adds 4 singles), so even 1 winner returns something — at a higher total stake. Use our Lucky 15 calculator to compare the two.
