    No rules as such but...
    One lucky15 per day settled to 20p (either 20p win or 10p ew).
    Cash out if you want Lee but for the comp your Original 4 will count.
    Preferably bets would be real and not just paper picks.
    Kudos and a big swede will be the only prize.
    Wind ups allowed. Sensitive sorts need not apply.
    Good Luck everyone lets have a bit of fun.
    Don't forget to do the Daily Ascot competition run by @MCLARKE

    Without wishing to make it look like I’m spending my Sunday morning marking the racing forum’s homework (just asked a question about bet limits elsewhere) I can’t resist asking this question as it already occurred to me after your recent win.
    Is the place part of the e/w acca a waste of stake given the potential returns and would it be better spent on boosting the L15 stake (or just topping up with a win acca)?
    When you won I think the place acca weighed in with just over £3, on this bet it would have returned just under £6. Are those returns worth it when you consider the bang for your buck you’d get by upping the win stakes in some way?
    I guess I know my answer; no, I’d rather have a much bigger win on the odd occasion I get lucky at the expense of a small return when they all place. Maybe there’s a point at which it becomes worth it (really big odds and generous place terms) but at your typical odds it’s a sub optimum use of stake for me.

    Not sure betting two L-15's on the same races with different picks is the way to go, although this seems stupid to say now you've just won with one of them! My point would be, just how gutted are you going to be if you keep getting 2 in one and 2 in the other? That would annoy me more than any amount i won on both doubles.

    the lucky 15 comp is just a bit of fun so post your four ascot runners before the 1st race off time and i think most would agree with me that we accept it given ur valid reason, what i wanted to avoid when i suggested the comp was random people just paper picking thats why i suggested proof of bet. I think it would be wise to post a separate thread for the Ascot lucky 15 which if all are in agreement i will do on monday evening with the parameters.

    Spread bets, exchanges, i have no idea what any of that is...not good with technology can't even print up posts on here like the others do so can't enter the Ascot Lucky15 comp. No social media and i've got an old i-phone, but never really use it, i'm off the grid, thank god.

    As the crow flies i'm probably less than 10 miles away from you near Rochester, Kent. But sure, i'll give it a go.
    Firstly this works better if you were breaking down a Lucky 31 or 63, 5 or 6 picks rather than 4 and i know you also, from time to time, do those as well. I'm sure you have a selection of picks that you bet on every day and some don't make your L-15 but you do them as singles, i'm assuming, so you will have at least 5 or 6 picks that you're happy with. Enter them as you would normally do (i'm basing this on Bet365 and using 5 picks, normally for you a Lucky 31 for this example) then open "other Multiples" and scroll down and open "show more Multiples". You must do this already to do your L-15. (Just had a thought...i do this on a laptop not a phone or i-pad so i hope it's the same)
    Ok, so before you go down to L-31, before that is "singles" "doubles" "trebles" "4 folds" Then just put 10p (or whatever, i usually do a bigger stake on the doubles) in the doubles, which is x10 = £1, then 10p in the trebles, which is also x10 = £1, then 10p in the 4-folds which is x5, = 0.50p and then go back up and underneath your horse selections is the 5-fold (you could have done this first) The break-down of 26 bets which doesn't include the 5 singles that would make it up to 31, but you can add them in if you want, i just don't because i always do my single bets at 08:00hrs and my multiples a bit later. Once confirmed you will now have 4 different bets in your "My Bets" each with it's own Cash Out. Ok, so if we move on to the first horse wins...(because i'm optimistic like that) doesn't really effect anything other than we pat ourself on the back and with the bigger stake we were allowed to put on the singles as opposed to the 10p or 20p in the L-31 (i bet £2 on singles, but you stick to whatever you do normally, but at 50p or a pound you will probably have at least paid for the multiple bets) and i have to assume that even you don't cash out after 1 win, but just for the sake of it, lets say it was a big price and you've got an itchy finger...If you wanted to, you could cash just one out but remember unlike the L-15's or 31's the price is now split and even if all were added up, it would probably not be as high as the Luckys (minus singles and any possible bonuses they might be putting in the mix) and as you will see, they will all be completely different amounts. The 5-fold will not offer much and the 4-fold might have added a bit more, but of course it will be offering more on the trebles and doubles because you already have a winner and it's more likely you will get 1 or 2 more wins, rather than 3 or 4. Let's say no cash out and you have the second horse come in.(i told you i was optimistic) Now even with two wins at let's say 7-1 the c/o on the trebles will be quite good (for the size of our bet, i'm not talking 1000's or 100's here) and the 4-fold will be as well. The doubles will be a nice amount, but you already have a  double so it's already a winner. (if you have no more winners it will go down a bit but not a lot) It's at this stage i make a choice (with 5 horses) and it will depend on how i feel and what the market is saying about the next runner as to whether i cash something out or not. The smallest amount will be the 5-fold and if i've had a change of heart on it's (the next runner) chances, i might c/o on that because if it loses, the 5-fold's finished, but i normally keep that and the doubles going and c/o on the 3 or 4-fold (or if i'm having a bad week both) I've just realised you don't need to know about the cashing out bit, you know how to do that, so hopefully i've explained the breakdown part for you and of course this is the real world so your first two horses are not going to win every day but i will leave you with this. I find what i call my two bankers of the day(i will go as low as 3-1 if i have to) and then pick from races after them for my next picks and try to finish on something late in the day that looks like a market mover and Bet365 have not yet dropped, even if you don't fancy it, because if you're playing the cash out game, the last race don't matter. 
    I'm a lonely old fart who waffles on too much and i wouldn't mind, but it takes me hours to write this out, but hoped it made sense and if not just ask some one else 🤣 No just kidding, just message me as long as you don't mind waiting for me to respond. Good luck with it if you decide to try anyway.

    It does make sense (I was a bit unsure what you were getting at with the original post) and there's certainly a lot to be said for not effing with the formula when you've found something that works for you and you enjoy. For me it feels too much like the tail is wagging the dog with the prospect of cashout dictating how the bets are selected but I would say that given I'm the anti @LEE-GRAYS when it comes to cashout!
