Next up was Tipalgo’s Lucky 31 service, where they give out 5 bets each day to be backed in a Lucky 31 style bet (5 singles, 10 doubles, 10 trebles, 5 fourfolds and 1 fivefold accumulator). It’s not possible for us to proof their selections as a Lucky 31 bet, so proofed results are based on backing each of the selections as single.
If you were to back them as a lucky 31 bet, the 26th March would have bee a particularly good day, where 4 of their 5 selections won and the other selection was beaten by a neck into 2nd.
Backing the selections that day as singles, returned a BSP profit of +22.45 points. But if backing as a Lucky 31 bet, according to the Bet Calculator a 31 point outlay, would have returned a profit of +1,768 points.
