How much does a Lucky 15 cost?
Four singles, six doubles, four trebles and one fourfold make fifteen separate bets. At £1 per line the total stake is £15. At 10p per line it is £1.50. To start with a complete cash budget, select “Total combined stake”; the amount must divide equally into fifteen whole-penny stakes.
Follow the £1 example
At decimal prices 2.00, 3.00, 4.00 and 5.00, all four won, the four singles return £14. The multiples return £345, so the total is £359. Subtract the complete £15 stake to find £344 profit. The table above shows where every part comes from.
What happens with one or two winners?
If only D at 5.00 wins, its single returns £5 and the overall result is a £10 loss. If only A at 2.00 and B at 3.00 win, their singles and double return £2 + £3 + £6 = £11, a £4 overall loss. A return is not necessarily a profit. No one-winner concession is added.
Voids and pending selections
A confirmed void replaces that selection’s price with 1.00 in every original component. The components keep their original separate stakes, even if they become identical after the void. If all four selections are void, this cash model returns the full stake. Mark an unresolved selection “Not settled” to separate confirmed money from a conditional return; it is not automatically treated as a win.
Each-way, bonuses and deductions
This calculator covers ordinary cash win bets. An each-way Lucky 15 has a separate win/place treatment and is outside this model. Operator bonuses, free bets, dead heats, Rule 4 deductions, price boosts and cash-out are not applied. For a full explanation, read Lucky 15: singles, multiples and total stake.
Compare the total budget
A Yankee omits the four singles and has eleven lines. Comparing both at £1 per line compares different outlays. Our equal-budget Yankee/Lucky 15 comparison holds the cash stake constant. Use the general system calculator for the other structures.
