Here we have an example of a lucky 15 betting slip . The pay-outs for the above example are, for only one winner (lets say Esthers Pride at 3-1) Paddypower will double your odds so you would get back €7. If both Esthers Pride and Lumberjack came in the return would be €21:50. For a win on the first three horses the pay-out jumps to €224 and if all 4 came in it would be €700:15.
