The Super Heinz is one of the biggest full-cover accumulators a bettor is likely to place – seven selections combined into 120 separate bets, from doubles all the way up to a single seven-fold accumulator.

That scale makes manual calculation almost impossible. This tool works through all 120 bets – 21 doubles, 35 trebles, 35 four-folds, 21 five-folds, 7 six-folds, and 1 seven-fold – and tells you exactly how much each level returned.
Whether you’re testing how many winners you’d need to break even, or reviewing an actual result, the breakdown shows precisely where every part of your return came from.
π How to Use the Super Heinz Calculator
Enter decimal odds for all seven selections, then mark each as Lost or Won (or Placed, if using Each-Way mode). Set your stake per bet – this is the unit stake, not your overall budget.
Your total outlay is always 120 times your stake-per-bet in Win Only mode, or 240 times in Each-Way mode, since each-way splits every bet into a win half and a place half.
The calculator groups your 120 bets by level and shows how many combinations at each level paid out, alongside the return contributed by that level.
π’ Calculator Fields Explained
Bet Mode – Win Only calculates the standard 120-bet Super Heinz; Each-Way adds a place-half to every bet, for 240 total bets.
Place Terms – the fraction of win odds paid on the place part of an each-way bet (only shown in Each-Way mode).
Stake per Bet – the unit stake applied to every one of the 120 (or 240) individual bets.
Currency – the currency symbol used to display stakes and returns.
Selection Name / Odds / Result – the seven events you’re backing, their decimal odds, and whether each finished Lost, Placed, or Won.
π° Understanding the Results
| Result Field | What It Tells You |
|---|---|
| Doubles (21) | Every possible pair of your 7 selections – how many pairs both won, and their combined return |
| Trebles (35) | Every possible group of 3 selections and their combined return |
| Four-folds (35) / Five-folds (21) / Six-folds (7) | Every possible group of 4, 5, and 6 selections respectively |
| Seven-fold (1) | The single accumulator requiring all seven selections to win |
| Total Bets / Stake / Return | The full 120 (or 240) bet count, total money staked, and total money returned |
Unlike a Lucky 15 or a Flag, a Super Heinz has no single bets and no Single Stakes About pairs. Every one of its 120 bets is a straightforward multiple requiring 2 or more winners.
A single winning selection out of seven guarantees nothing at all from a Super Heinz. The bet’s insurance kicks in only once you reach at least two winners.
Every level of a Super Heinz – from the 21 doubles up to the single seven-fold – requires all selections within that specific combination to win before it pays a penny. That’s true no matter how many other selections you have winning elsewhere.
π Calculation Formulas
| Bet Level | Formula | Combinations from 7 |
|---|---|---|
| Double | Stake Γ Oddsβ Γ Oddsβ | 21 |
| Treble | Stake Γ Oddsβ Γ Oddsβ Γ Oddsβ | 35 |
| Four-fold | Stake Γ (product of 4 odds) | 35 |
| Five-fold | Stake Γ (product of 5 odds) | 21 |
| Six-fold | Stake Γ (product of 6 odds) | 7 |
| Seven-fold | Stake Γ (product of all 7 odds) | 1 |
These combination counts come directly from choosing k selections out of 7 without regard to order – the same binomial coefficients used across every full-cover system bet in this family.
21 + 35 + 35 + 21 + 7 + 1 = 120, which is exactly why a Super Heinz is defined as a 120-bet wager – the numbers aren’t arbitrary, they’re the binomial coefficients of 7 choose 2 through 7 choose 7.
Each-way mode simply repeats this same structure a second time using place odds instead of win odds, doubling the bet count to 240 without changing which combinations are possible.
π Practical Examples
Example 1 – Two winners. Selections 1 and 2 win at 2.5 and 3.0, the other five lose. Only the single double between them pays – every treble and higher combination needs a third winner it doesn’t have.
Example 2 – Four winners. With four selections winning, every double, treble, and four-fold made up entirely of those four selections now pays, along with nothing from the five-fold, six-fold, or seven-fold levels, since those need a fifth, sixth, or seventh winner.
Moving from three to four winning selections in a Super Heinz unlocks an entire additional bet level (four-folds) on top of every lower level that already involved those selections – the return typically jumps sharply at each new threshold.
Example 3 – Only one winner. With just one selection winning and six losing, all 120 bets fail their minimum-two-winners requirement, and the total return is $0.
Example 4 – All seven win. Every one of the 120 bets pays out, topped by the seven-fold accumulator at the product of all seven decimal odds. A clean sweep on a Super Heinz with modest average odds can return dozens of times the total stake.
Example 5 – Each-way with mixed results. Three selections win outright and two more place without winning. The win-side combinations among the three winners pay normally, while combinations made entirely of placed-or-won selections also return via the place-half calculation.
π‘ Tips & Best Practices
Confirm you understand the minimum-two-winners requirement before staking a Super Heinz expecting single-winner protection – that’s a feature of Lucky-style bets, not this one.
Watch the breakdown table’s wonCount column rather than just the headline return – it tells you precisely how many combinations at each level actually landed.
Use Each-Way mode for horse racing with larger fields, where place terms materially affect how many combinations produce a partial return.
Test a few “what if one more selection wins” scenarios before placing a real bet, since crossing into a new bet level (like unlocking four-folds) often produces a disproportionate jump in return.
Compare the Super Heinz total stake against a plain Heinz (which has one fewer selection and 57 bets) before deciding which fits your bankroll and risk appetite better.
Running your actual seven selections through this calculator before betting gives a far clearer break-even picture than trying to estimate 120 bets by hand.
Consider spreading your selections across a genuine mix of odds rather than seven similarly-priced picks, since a spread tends to produce more varied combination returns when only some selections land.
- Note the minimum number of winners needed to recover your stake
- Save your inputs so you can compare pre-event estimates to actual results afterward
β οΈ Common Mistakes to Avoid
Expecting a Return From a Single Winner
Because a Super Heinz sounds similar to bets that include singles, some bettors assume one winning selection out of seven will produce at least a small return.
A Super Heinz contains zero single bets – one winner among seven guarantees a total return of exactly $0, with no exceptions.
If single-winner protection matters, look at a Lucky-style bet built on the same seven selections instead.
Underestimating Total Stake at Higher Unit Amounts
Because 120 bets is such a large number, even a modest per-bet stake produces a surprisingly large total outlay.
A $2 stake per bet on a Super Heinz costs $240 in total, and $480 if placed each-way – always check the Total Stake figure before confirming a real bet.
Divide your intended overall budget by 120 (or 240 for each-way) to find the correct stake-per-bet figure to enter.
Ignoring How Sharply Returns Scale With Extra Winners
Focusing only on whether you “won” or “lost” overall misses how dramatically the return changes between three, four, and five winning selections.
Underestimating how much a single extra winning selection changes the total return is one of the most common misreads of a Super Heinz result.
Mixing Up Place Terms Fractions
Using the wrong each-way fraction (1/4 versus 1/5, for example) for the specific race can noticeably shift place-side return estimates.
Always confirm the bookmaker’s actual place terms for that race before entering each-way figures.
π― When to Use This Calculator
Use this tool whenever you’re weighing up a seven-selection Super Heinz and want to know realistically how many winners you’d need to break even, or to check an actual result across all 120 bets at once.
A Super Heinz doesn’t reward being partly right – it rewards being right about several things at the same time, and pays disproportionately more the more of those things line up.
It’s a natural companion tool when comparing a seven-selection Super Heinz against a smaller Heinz or a larger Goliath, at the same stake level.

β Frequently Asked Questions
How many winners do I need for a Super Heinz to pay anything?
At least two of your seven selections must win (or place, in each-way mode) before any of the 120 bets can pay out.
With exactly one winner, every double, treble, and higher combination fails, and the total return is $0.
What’s the difference between a Super Heinz and a Heinz?
A Heinz uses 6 selections and 57 bets (doubles through a six-fold); a Super Heinz adds a seventh selection, expanding to 120 bets up to a seven-fold.
Adding just one more selection more than doubles the total bet count, from 57 to 120, because every new selection combines with every existing group at every level.
Does a Super Heinz include any single bets?
No – a Super Heinz contains only doubles and higher. If you want singles included alongside the same full-cover structure, that would be a different named bet entirely.
This is the key reason one winning selection alone never produces a return here.
Should I use Each-Way mode for football or esports selections?
No – each-way betting is tied to finishing position in races, so it applies to horse and greyhound racing, not match-result sports like football or esports.
Keep Bet Mode set to Win Only for any sport where “placing” isn’t a meaningful outcome.
Why is my total stake so much higher than I expected?
With 120 individual bets (or 240 each-way), even a small stake per bet multiplies into a large total very quickly.
Confusing an intended total budget with the per-bet stake field is the single most common input error on large full-cover calculators like this one.
Can I place a Super Heinz on selections from the same event?
No – like other full-cover multiples, each of the seven selections must come from a different event, so you can’t back multiple outcomes within the same race or match.
This ensures each selection’s result is independent for the purposes of the multiple-bet calculations shown here.
