Place multiple bets at once on 9wickets Multi Bet and multiply your chances of winning
A multi bet is a method where you can combine three, four or more events into a single wager. If all selections are correct, the return from the combined odds can be much larger — but it is best to understand how it works before playing.
How Multi Bet Works
One bet, but multiple selections are combined into it — that is the core idea of a multi bet.
In a single bet, you wager only on the outcome of one match or event. In a multi bet, two or more selections are combined and the odds of each are multiplied in sequence, creating combined odds. Your final return is calculated from those combined odds.
The appeal of a multi bet is the potential for a larger return from a relatively small stake. Keep in mind, however, that if even one selection is wrong the entire bet is lost — so it should be enjoyed purely as entertainment, not treated as a reliable way to make money.
Multi bet is very popular in 9wickets' cricket betting section, especially during T20 series when multiple matches are scheduled on the same day.
Multiple Selections
Add two or more events to one slip — if all win, you get a return.
Combined Odds
The odds of each selection are multiplied in sequence, producing larger combined odds.
Chance of a Big Win
A small stake can yield a meaningful return from the combined odds.
One wrong = everything gone
If even one selection is wrong, the entire multi bet is lost — keep this in mind.
How to Read Decimal, Fractional and American Odds
All three formats express the same price differently — understand them through examples.
Odds appear in three different formats on betting sites. Decimal format is most commonly used on most Bangladeshi platforms including 9wickets, but it helps to understand the other two as well.
Example 1 — The same price in three formats: Suppose you place ৳500 on Team A to win.
| Format | Format | Return (on a ৳500 bet) |
|---|---|---|
| Decimal | 3.00 | ৳1,500 (৳1,000 profit + ৳500 stake) |
| Fractional | 2/1 | ৳1,500 (৳1,000 profit + ৳500 stake) |
| American | +200 | ৳1,500 (৳1,000 profit + ৳500 stake) |
If the bet loses, the full ৳500 is gone.
Example 2 — Favourite's price: ৳500 on Team B to win.
| Format | Format | Return (on a ৳500 bet) |
|---|---|---|
| Decimal | 1.80 | ৳900 (৳400 profit + ৳500 stake) |
| Fractional | 4/5 | ৳900 (৳400 profit + ৳500 stake) |
| American | -125 | ৳900 — a minus sign indicates how much you need to stake to win ৳100 |
Decimal format is the easiest for calculating combined odds — just multiply each selection's odds together. That is why decimal is the most convenient format for multi bets.
A Multi Bet with Three Selections — A Worked Example
See in real numbers how combined odds are formed in a multi bet.
Multi Bet with Three Matches
Three selections from three different matches:
- Selection 1 — Team A to win: odds 1.40
- Selection 2 — Team B to win: odds 1.60
- Selection 3 — Team A to win: odds 1.90
Combined Odds
1.40 × 1.60 × 1.90 = 4.26
(rounded to decimal)
If all selections win on a ৳100 bet:
৳426 return
If any one of the three loses, the full ৳100 is gone.
This calculation makes it clear why a multi bet should be seen as entertainment — if one selection is wrong, the return is zero. But if all selections are correct, even a small stake can bring a decent return.
To make multi bet calculations easier, the 9wickets bet slip automatically shows the combined odds and potential return, so there is no need to calculate separately.
Practical Tips for Doing Better at Multi Bets
Some practical advice drawn from experience.
-
Start with 2–3 selections. The more selections you add, the greater the risk. For beginners, starting with two or three selections is the sensible approach.
-
Consider whether the selections are related to each other. For example, picking linked outcomes from two matches in the same tournament increases the combined risk.
-
Extra selections not only raise the odds — they also raise the chance of losing. It is natural to be attracted by the large odds from 7 or 8 selections, but the probability of all of them being correct is very low.
-
Choose matches you genuinely know about. Adding selections from unfamiliar events just because the odds look good means you are essentially guessing, which increases the chance of being wrong.
-
You can mix different sports in a multi bet. Cricket, football — you can combine whichever you prefer on one bet slip. Evaluate each selection independently, though.
-
Remember the difference between live betting and multi bets. Live odds change quickly during a match — confirm the odds before placing a selection in a multi bet.
Responsible Betting
A multi bet is one way to have fun — it is not a reliable way to earn money. Only bet what you can afford to lose.

Bankroll Management — Keep Your Budget in Check
Without a plan for how much to bet and how to divide your budget, a multi bet creates problems rather than enjoyment.
Bankroll refers to the total amount of money set aside specifically for betting. Many people mix their betting budget with their everyday expenses — it is better not to do that.
A common approach for multi bets is not to place more than 1% to 5% of your total bankroll on a single multi bet. This is because the chance of losing is higher with multi bets — one wrong selection and the entire bet is gone.
If you lose several multi bets in a row, take a short break rather than increasing your stake. Trying to recover losses by placing larger bets one after another is one of the biggest mistakes you can make.
Regular players on the 9wickets VIP programme at 9wickets receive weekly cashback, which gives the bankroll some support. However, you should not place larger bets just to earn cashback.
Keep a separate betting budget
Set a fixed amount for betting each week or month — do not go beyond that limit.
More fun with smaller stakes
Starting with small stakes like ৳100 or ৳200 on a multi bet lets you enjoy more matches with less risk.
Do not try to recover losses
Placing larger bets after a loss to try to win back what you lost is likely to increase your losses further.
Avoid Common Mistakes in Multi Betting
Recognising the mistakes most people make in advance leads to a better experience.
Mistake 1: Too many selections
Building a "super multi" with 6–7 selections is tempting, but the chance of all of them being correct is very low. 2–3 selections is more realistic.
Mistake 2: Betting on unfamiliar events
Adding selections from unfamiliar leagues or tournaments just because the odds look good means you are betting on guesswork, which is not the right approach.
Mistake 3: Betting without understanding the odds
Many people place bets without understanding the difference between decimal and American odds. Use the table above to compare the formats.
Mistake 4: Placing a large multi bet on the same budget
Placing the same amount on a multi bet that you would on a single bet greatly increases your risk. Keep a separate, smaller budget for multi bets.
Mistake 5: Not checking the bet slip before confirming
Before placing a bet, review each selection, the combined odds and the stake amount once — accidental clicks do happen.
