Where you place a bet using a combination of your Buy-In Balance, Bonus Balance and/or Pending Winnings wallets, any winnings will be allocated on a pro-rata basis to each applicable wallet (e.g. A £2 bet made up of £1.50 from the Buy-In Balance wallet and 50p from the Bonus Balance wallet would lead to 75% of any winnings being credited to.

As one of the UK’s biggest bookmakers, Ladbrokes has been offering customers the chance to create accumulators in store for many years. But these days it’s easier and faster to create a Ladbrokes accumulator online. Our step by step guide will show you exactly how to do it…

How To Place An Accumulator at Ladbrokes

It takes just a couple of minutes to do your accumulator bet at Ladbrokes. All you need to do is follow these 3 easy steps.

1 – Log In To Your Ladbrokes Account

You need to be logged in to your Ladbokes account to place any bet, so the first thing to do is visit the Ladbrokes website. Then enter your username and password in the boxes at the top of the page.

2 – Build Your Accumulator

Now it’s time for you to choose the individual selections that you would like in your accumulator. Your Ladbrokes accumulator can consist of any bets you like, from whichever markets or events you choose. You can even combine bets from different sports such as football and horse racing, all in the same accumulator. The possibilities are endless. However for this example, we’ll keep things simple and build a 4 team football accumulator. If you did want to add more bets or include different sports, the process would be exactly the same.

Below we have a screenshot showing a Ladbrokes football coupon showing a list of matches being played on a particular day. Let’s say you want to choose Dortmund, Man Utd and Fenerbahce to win, and the Basel match to be a draw. All you need to do is click on each of these outcomes. When you’ve done that, each one turns green. If you make a mistake, just click again to deselect.

3 – Choose Your Stake

When you’ve finished choosing the bets for your accumulator, move to the right of the screen and take a look at your betslip. You’ll see that each of your selections was added to the betslip as soon as you clicked on it.

There are stake boxes next to each of your selections in case you want to make a single bet on any of them. For this example, we’re only interested in doing the accumulator, so scroll down to the section of the betslip headed Multiples.

Here there is a stake box labelled Four Fold Accumulator, because you chose 4 selections. This would obviously change if there were more selections, but again the process is the same. The betslip shows that the combined odds of your accumulator are 30.87/1. When you enter yous stake in the box (£10 in this example) it shows your potential return. In this case, a £10 stake would return a massive £318.78.

If you like those odds (and who wouldn’t) then all you need to do is click the green Place Bet button, and that’s it. You’ve successfully placed your first Ladbrokes accumulator!

You’ve seen how easy it is, so now it’s your turn. Why not go and create your own Ladbrokes accumulator and see if you can get an even bigger payout!

Most bookmakers place a limit upon the total pay-out they will provide to punters rather than on the total amount you can bet in the first place.

The limits which bookies do place upon pay-outs – and in some rare cases on stake amounts – do differ from one bookmaker to another.

Maximum Bet Amounts At Online Bookmakers:

The following table shows the maximum bet and pay-out amounts at online bookmakers:

Note: max payout amount varies by sport, above we have listed the biggest payouts possible across all sports.

What is the maximum stake for online bookmakers?

The maximum stake for online bookmakers varies from site to site as some use a max stake and some use a max payout amount. Technically Bet365 have the highest as their max payout is £2,000,000 so you could bet £1,000,000 at evens on their site. See our table for all limits.

Why Max Pay-Out Not Max Bet?

As we mentioned above, most bookmakers limit the maximum pay-out which they will provide rather than the maximum stake amount which they will accept. There are a number of reasons for this:

• Protection against pay-outs large enough to potentially cause financial damage.
• Protection against match fixing (less popular sports often have smaller max bet and max pa-out limits).
• Prevents odds manipulation by high stake punters and other bookmakers.
• Still allows them to take large bets at smaller odds – £100 at 1000/1 much less appealing than £50,000 at even money but bets have same payout.

What Are the Biggest Ever Bets?

On occasion punters do come up with monster bets which payoff big time!

The following five are some of the best examples of past bets which rank among the largest ever, in terms of either initial stake or eventual pay-out:

1. Leicester City Win The League

How To Place A Bet On Ladbrokes

At the outset of the 2015/16 Premier League season you could get the same odds on Leicester City winning the title (5000-1) as you could on Elvis being found alive.

A number of devoted Foxes fans staked their hard earned cash on their beloved side, however, and Leicester’s ultimate victory is believed to have cost UK bookmakers in the region of £25 million.

The largest individual pay-out amongst that total is believed to be £100,000 paid to a punter in Manchester who bet £20 and resisted the urge to cash out.

2. Saints Take Super Bowl XLIV

Ahead of Super Bowl XLIV pretty much every expert, analyst and fan fancied the Indianapolis Colts to beat the New Orleans Saints. Infamous Las Vegas professional gambler Billy Walters, however, had other ideas.

He backed the underdog Saints to the tune of $3.5 million and whilst exactly how much he won when they did triumph is unknown, it is likely to have been an extraordinary amount.

3. Monty’s Pass Wins the National

Blackpool born Mick Futter, an owner of numerous bingo halls in Britain and Ireland, made headlines in 2003 thanks to the exploits of his horse Monty’s Pass in the Grand National.

Futter and the other four co-owners of the horse placed numerous bets of £5,000 and £10,000 at 33-1 and 20-1 respectively, and duly received well over £1 million when Monty’s Pass was first past the post.

4.‘Money’ Mayweather

In 2015 boxer Floyd ‘Money’ Mayweather took to social media site Instagram to boast about his sports betting exploits. Over the course of four days, Mayweather had staked a total of $350,000 on a combination of NBA games and a middleweight boxing bout.

The four separate bets all paid off and ‘Money’ revelled in revealing that he had received winnings totalling $827,272.73.

5. Frankie’s Magnificent Seven

A feat which has spawned its own online casino game, when Frankie Dettori won all seven races on the card at an Ascot meeting in 1996, he also won punter Darren Yeats some serious dough.

A dedicated gambler from Morecambe, Yeats placed a total of £59 on Dettori’s seven mounts and once the Italian completed his 25,000-1 seven timer, he collected £550,000 from the bookies.
