Super Heinz calculator
A Super Heinz is 120 bets on 7 selections: 21 doubles, 35 trebles, 35 fourfolds, 21 fivefolds, 7 sixfolds and 1 sevenfold. It has no singles, so one winner returns nothing: you need at least two.
Enter the odds as fractions (5/2), decimals (3.50) or American odds (+150) and mark each result. Switch on each-way to add the place part.

Questions
How many bets are in a Super Heinz?
120: 21 doubles, 35 trebles, 35 fourfolds, 21 fivefolds, 7 sixfolds and 1 sevenfold. Each-way it is 240 bets, a win part and a place part for each.
How much does a £1 each-way Super Heinz cost?
£240: £120 for the win bets and £120 for the place bets. At 50p each-way it costs £120; at 10p each-way, £24.
What is the difference between a Super Heinz and a Heinz?
A Heinz covers 6 selections in 57 bets; a Super Heinz adds a selection and covers 7 in 120 bets, so it costs 2.1 times as much at the same stake.
Does a Super Heinz improve my chances of winning?
No. It spreads the stake over many bets, so fewer winners still return something, but every selection carries the bookmaker's margin and each double, treble and accumulator multiplies it. See what multiples really cost.
