> **Short answer:** Accumulator, wey people dey call "acca", na one bet wey join two or more games together. Dem go multiply di odds of each game, so di payout dey grow fast. But every game must enter. If one cut, di whole ticket don lose.

## Acca example: Vipers vs KCCA

Make we say you put USh 2,000 as stake (di money wey you bet) for acca wey get three games. Each game inside di acca, dem dey call am "leg".

| Leg | Wetin you pick | Odds (example odds) |
|---|---|---|
| 1 | Vipers to beat KCCA | 1.80 |
| 2 | Young Africans to beat Simba | 1.50 |
| 3 | Orlando Pirates to beat Kaizer Chiefs | 2.00 |
| | **Total odds** | 1.80 × 1.50 × 2.00 = **5.40** |

- Return = USh 2,000 × 5.40 = USh 10,800
- Profit = USh 10,800 − USh 2,000 = USh 8,800

Make we say Vipers win 2–1, and Young Africans win 1–0. If Pirates match come end 1–1, di whole ticket don cut. Your USh 2,000 don go, even though two legs enter.

## How acca odds dey multiply?

To get acca odds, you go multiply di odds of every leg together. You no go add dem.

For di example: 1.80 × 1.50 = 2.70. Then 2.70 × 2.00 = 5.40.

After dat, multiply di total odds by your stake. Na your return be dat. Our [payout calculator](https://oddsclass.com/tools/payout_calculator/) fit do am for you.

## Why acca dey cut pass single bet?

Acca dey cut pass becos every extra leg na one more thing wey must go well. Each leg wey you add, your chance to win go reduce.

*Diagram: Chance that every leg wins: 1 leg 66.67%, 2 legs 44.44%, 3 legs 29.63%, 4 legs 19.75%, 5 legs 13.17%*

You fit see am with implied probability (di chance wey di odds dey show). Divide 1 by di odds. At 1.50, e be 1 ÷ 1.50 = 66.67%.

To know di chance say all di legs go enter, multiply di chances together. See ₦500 acca wey every leg dey 1.50 (example odds):

| Legs | Total odds | Wetin you go collect for ₦500 | Implied chance say all go enter |
|---|---|---|---|
| 1 | 1.50 | ₦750.00 | 66.67% |
| 2 | 2.25 | ₦1,125.00 | 44.44% |
| 3 | 3.375 | ₦1,687.50 | 29.63% |
| 4 | 5.0625 | ₦2,531.25 | 19.75% |
| 5 | 7.59375 | ₦3,796.88 | 13.17% |

With five legs, di money go look sweet. But di odds dey show say e go enter only about 13 times out of 100. Dat mean say e go cut about 87 times out of 100.

Di real chance fit even low pass dat. Each price get bookmaker margin (di profit wey dem don hide inside di odds), and di margin dey multiply too. Read more for our [implied probability](https://oddsclass.com/learn/implied_probability/) guide.

## How many games acca suppose get?

Acca need at least two games. No "correct" number dey, but di fewer di legs, di better your chance.

Most bookmakers go allow you put plenty legs. Some people dey book 10 or 20 games for one ticket. Di chance say dat kind ticket go enter dey very small.

If you wan play acca, make am short. Every leg suppose be game wey you don really study, no be filler wey you add just to make di odds big.

## Acca or single bet: wetin be di difference?

Single bet na one game, so na only one result must go well. Acca join many results together, so all of dem must go well.

See di same three games from di first example, but we play dem two ways. Each way na KSh 150 total (example odds 1.80, 1.50 and 2.00):

| How you play am | Stake | Wetin you collect if all three enter | Wetin you collect if di 2.00 leg cut |
|---|---|---|---|
| Three singles (KSh 50 each) | KSh 150 total | KSh 90 + KSh 75 + KSh 100 = KSh 265.00 | KSh 90 + KSh 75 = KSh 165.00 |
| One acca | KSh 150 | KSh 150 × 5.40 = KSh 810.00 | KSh 0.00 |

With singles, di first two games go still pay you if di third one cut. Dat one na KSh 15 profit. With acca, di same result go carry all your KSh 150.

Acca dey pay more if everything enter. Singles go give you chance to collect something back when one game fail.

## Wetin go happen if one leg for your acca void?

If one leg void (dem cancel am, most times becos dem postpone di match), most bookmakers go count am as odds 1.00. Di ticket go continue with di other legs.

From di first example, make we say Young Africans match void:

- New total odds = 1.80 × 1.00 × 2.00 = 3.60
- Return = USh 2,000 × 3.60 = USh 7,200
- Profit = USh 7,200 − USh 2,000 = USh 5,200

Your payout go reduce, but your ticket still dey alive. Every bookmaker get dia own rules, so check di terms.

## Mistakes wey people dey make

- **To dey add legs just to make odds big.** Every extra leg dey cut your chance.
- **To add odds instead of to multiply.** 1.80, 1.50 and 2.00 give 5.40, no be 5.30.
- **To think say small-odds "safe" games no get wahala.** Five legs at 1.50 still get only about 13% implied chance.
- **To put big stake for long acca.** Big money for screen no mean say di ticket go enter.
- **To chase acca wey cut with bigger acca.** Dis one dey usually make di loss bigger.
