What Are Each Way Bets?

An each-way bet is where your bet splits into two different bets; one bet on the horse to win, and one on it to place.

To place means to finish 1st, 2nd, 3rd etc (the amount of positions the place market pays depends on the race).

The term each-way refers to winning, and placing. Think of both of those as a "way". So betting £10 "each way" is betting £10 on the horse winning, and £10 on the horse placing.

If you bet £10 each-way on a horse, you would be actually be betting £20 in total. £10 on the horse to win, and £10 will on the horse to finish 1st, 2nd, 3rd etc (the amount of places depends on the race).

When you place an each-way bet using Matched Betting, you will have to lay both of the bets separately.

First, you will lay £10 on the win market to cover the win half of the bet.

Then you would lay £10 on the place market to cover the place part of the bet.

Whilst this may sound daunting at first, it's actually very simple.

We are going to split this offer up into 6 simple steps. Don't be put off by the fact there's 6 of them, they're quick and easy to complete.

This offer could be an easy £80 profit, so take your time to understand the process!

Step 1. Prepare and decide your approach
Step 2. Choose a horse
Step 3. Back the horse each-way
Step 4. Lay the win
Step 5. Lay the place
Step 6. Calculate your profit

At this point, I would recommend doing the following things:

Like with any matched bet, our goal is to choose a horse where the back odds at Bet365 are as close to the lay odds at the betting exchange as possible. The only difference being we have to consider both the win odds and the place odds.

I would highly recommend using Outplayed's Extra Place Catcher for this.

(7 day Outplayed trial available here)

First, open the Extra Place Catcher. Under select event choose the Grand National (Aintree - Saturday 17:15).

Then in Filters, clear all bookmakers and betting exchanges. Then tick Bet365 and the betting exchange you plan to use. Then click Apply.

The Extra Place Catcher will display the horses that offer you the lowest qualifying loss (i.e. the ones that will maximise your profits) at the top of the list.

This is so much quicker and easier than trying to manually compare the odds of all the horses!

Once you've chosen which horse to bet on, open the Grand National market on Bet365.

Lets say you want to bet £15 each way on Delta Work.

Add the horse to your bet slip as you normally would. Lets take a look at what it will look like.

First, make sure you tick the E/W box.

You will then notice that below this it says: "Unit Stake x2".

In the stake box, put half of your total stake. So if you want to do £15 each-way (£30 total), then put £15 in the box.

Below this you should then see your total stake, in this case £30.

Now place your bet! You now have £15 each-way (£30 total) on Delta Work. This is two separate bets: £15 for Delta Work to win and £15 for Delta Win to place.

Bet365 would then credit you £15 cash for the offer.

To calculate our lay stake for the win, we can either use the Extra Place Catcher or the Each Way Calculator on Outplayed.

I'd recommend using the built in calculator on the Extra Place Catcher.

First, enter your each-way stake into the calculator (blue square on image above).

In this example, we bet £15 each-way (£30 total) so would enter 15 on the calculator.

Next, in the Win Lay section (red square on image above), double check that the odds are the same at the betting exchange.

You can now see the amount to lay at the exchange, and your liability. In our example, we're laying £12 at lay odds of 10.0, for a liability of £108.

Go ahead and place your win lay bet now.

We've now laid half of our each-way bet, but still need to lay the place part.

Again, we can use the Extra Place Catcher to quickly calculate our lay stake.

First, check that the displayed place lay odds are the same as the exchange odds.

For this race, you could lay using a 4, 5 or 6 places market (but never lay on a market of more places than your back bet).

In this example, we're using the 4 places market on Smarkets, giving us the chance of an extra places profit if our horse finishes 5th or 6th.

You can now see the amount to lay on the place market, and your liability. In our example, we're laying £10.59 at lay odds of 3.4, for a liability of £25.41.

Go ahead and place your place lay bet now.

You've now placed a matched each-way bet! Nice work!

On the right hand side of the Extra Place Catcher you will see two columns:

• Qualifying Loss
• Extra Places Profit

To calculate our profit, we just take the cash received from Bet365, and minus our qualifying loss.

Bet365 will credit you 50% of the total value of your each-way bet, so if you bet £15 each-way (£30 in total), you will get back £15 cash.

So in this example, our profit is £15 - £7.41 = £7.59

We've made £7.59 profit from this part of the offer.

Plus, we know that if our horse finishes 5th or 6th, we will make an additional £28.59 profit from extra places (assuming you laid the 4 place market).

That's our first bet done for a tidy profit.

Now, you can repeat this process until you have bet up to £125 each-way (£250 in total) to get £125 cash.

Make a note of your profit from each bet. This way you can add them up at the end to get your total profit.

You have until Midday Saturday, so take your time to find suitable bets.

Job done, well done on your profit!
