How the Round Robin calculator works
The calculator breaks the ticket into three doubles, one treble, and six SSA lines, with each section itemised and summarised. As you mark legs settled, the active lines update automatically so your exposure stays clear. Each-way terms and commission inputs make the modelling realistic for racing and exchange hedging.
- Live tracker showing which lines remain active.
- Each-way toggle with flexible place terms.
- Stake summary with clear exposure and ROI view.
- Commission and free bet handling for precise net figures.
- Copyable results table for your tracker.
When to use the Round Robin calculator
Great when you like three selections but do not want everything riding on the treble. Particularly useful when one selection is more speculative, because SSAs can soften the impact if only one lands.
Make smarter staking decisions
Compare outputs against a trixie or patent to decide which balance of cover suits you best. If two legs are your strongest, try alternative structures and use the calculator to compare outcomes side by side. For simple qualifier stakes, start with the standard calculator.
Round Robin example with ten lines
A GBP 1 Round Robin costs GBP 10: three doubles, one treble, and six directional SSA lines. With three racing selections at 2.50, 3.00, and 4.00, the calculator shows both the ordinary multiple returns and the extra rollover outcomes.
Round Robin vs Trixie and Flag
Use Round Robin when you want SSA rollovers on three selections. Use a Trixie for the simpler four-line doubles-and-treble structure, or a Flag for four selections.
Racing-card use case and Round Robin mistakes
Round Robins can work when three selections run at different times and rollover outcomes need tracking. The mistake is forgetting the six SSA lines and expecting the bet to behave like a Trixie. Check the line count before staking each-way.
Frequently asked questions
How many bets form a round robin?
Ten: three doubles, one treble, and six single stakes about lines.
Do I need all three winners?
No. Two winners can still return profit depending on prices, and SSAs help when only one wins.
When should I use a round robin?
When you want more cover than a treble but still like three selections.
Is it hard to settle?
Not with the calculator. Mark results and it updates the live projection automatically.
Why does a Round Robin have ten bets?
It has four ordinary multiples plus six directional SSA lines.
Is Round Robin the same as a Trixie?
No. A Trixie has no SSA lines and only four bets.
