Alright, imagine you’re picking 3 soccer matches you think might win, and you want to place bets on them. Instead of just betting on each match individually, you can group them together into what’s called a Trixie bet.

Here’s how it works, step by step:

The 3 Matches

Let’s say you’ve picked:

  • Match 1: Team A vs. Team B
  • Match 2: Team C vs. Team D
  • Match 3: Team E vs. Team F

You think Team A, Team C, and Team E will win.

A Trixie is Actually 4 Bets

Even though you’re betting on 3 matches, a Trixie bet is made up of 4 different bets:

  • 3 doubles (which means you’re betting on 2 matches at a time):
    • Bet 1: Match 1 + Match 2
    • Bet 2: Match 1 + Match 3
    • Bet 3: Match 2 + Match 3
  • 1 treble (which means you’re betting on all 3 matches together):
    • Bet 4: Match 1 + Match 2 + Match 3

How You Win

  • You need at least 2 out of the 3 matches to win in order to get some money back.
  • If all 3 matches win, you win all 4 bets!

Example

Let’s say you bet $1 on each of the 4 bets. So, the total amount you’re betting is $4.

  • If only 2 matches win, you’ll win some money back from the doubles that include those 2 matches.
  • If all 3 matches win, you win money from the doubles and the treble, which means a bigger payout!

Why It’s Fun

  • You don’t need all 3 matches to win to get some money back. Just 2 out of 3 wins can still give you something.
  • But if you’re right about all 3 matches, you can win even more!

Why It’s Called a Trixie

The word Trixie comes from the idea that you’re making 3 main selections (the 3 matches), but it automatically turns into 4 bets!
