Simple A+B
C+A-A-A
A+C-A-A
A-A=C-A
A-A-A-C
These other 4 would have back-ups? Is this the usual rule of play on these? Thanks one and all for any clarification .

That's a simplified approach, yes. The 'full' effect A-B-C-X tickets approach as Steve Crist laid out in Exotic Betting looks like this:

All A's

1: 7/2,4,7,10/6,7,8/4,11,12 ~ 18.00

A's with One B

2: 7/1,5,8,9,11/6,7,8/4,11,12 ~ 22.50
3: 7/2,4,7,10/6,7,8/6,7,8 ~ 18.00

A's with Two B

5: 7/1,5,8,9,11/6,7,8/6,7,8 ~ 22.50

A's with One C

6: 2,4,9/2,4,7,10/6,7,8/4,11,12 ~ 54.00
7: 7/3,13/6,7,8/4,11,12 ~ 9.00
8: 7/2,4,7,10/3,9/4,11,12 ~ 12.00
9: 7/2,4,7,10/6,7,8/1,9,10 ~ 18.00

Total: $174
