Formula

SSA Part 1 (A→B): Stake on A. If A wins, unit stake goes on B from the returns.

  • A loses: return = 0
  • A wins, B loses: return = (A_odds - 1) × stake
  • A wins, B wins: return = (A_odds - 1) × stake + B_odds × stake

SSA Part 2 (B→A): Same logic reversed.

Total cost: 2 × unit stake

Frequently Asked Questions

Define a Single Stakes About bet.

A Single Stakes About (SSA) is a conditional any-to-come (ATC) bet linking two selections. It has two parts: if selection A wins, a unit stake is staked on selection B, and the reverse applies. Total cost is 2 units.

SSA versus a double — what's the distinction?

A double pays only if both selections win. An SSA returns something whenever either selection wins — the conditional leg fires only after the first part wins. A single winner can still yield profit.

What does any-to-come signify?

Any-to-come (ATC) means proceeds from a winning bet fund the following bet. Within an SSA, a winning first selection diverts the original unit stake onto the second selection out of the returns.

When is an SSA the right choice?

An SSA suits two selections you rate but want partial cover on if one fails. Unlike a double requiring both, an SSA can return a profit on a single winner provided the odds are high enough.
