What is Union Jack Patent?

A Union Jack Patent applies a Patent (7 bets: 3 singles + 3 doubles + 1 treble) along each of the 8 lines in a 3×3 grid. 8 × 7 = 56 bets from 9 selections. Only 1 winner on any line needed for a return.

Breakdown

  • 8 lines × 3 singles per line = 24 singles (with overlaps — each selection appears in 2-4 lines)
  • 8 lines × 3 doubles per line = 24 doubles
  • 8 lines × 1 treble per line = 8 trebles
  • Total: 56 bets

Example

$1 UJ Patent (total stake: $56). With 9 selections at 2.50:

  • If all 9 win: Every bet wins — massive combined returns
  • If 1 wins (centre): That selection appears as a single in 4 lines = 4 winning singles at $2.50 = $10
