low payout

[AeWingnut]

I was goofing around betting harness races. I looked at the exotic pool and saw the big favorite was going to pay decent with a few horses.

it came in with the big favorite over a 30-1 shot I included. Twinspires showed that would pay $61 for a $1. Even if it was supposed to be for $2 it's should have paid $30. I got back $14.

the place money was more than the exacta.

I know late money but the race had already went off when I was checking. As a matter of fact they were showing the stretch replay when I looked.

Some of these tracks have people skimming out of the place pools and exotic wagers.


4 $3.00 $2.60 $2.10
2 . $16.40 $5.80
1 . . $2.60


Wager Type Winning Numbers Paid
$1.00 Exacta 4-2 $13.80

That's why you don't bet harness tracks expecting to make money.

Years and years ago there was another thoroughbred track that was skimming out of the place pool. The pro did the math and figured out what the payoff should have been. After it didn't add up, he went to the manager and the guy told him to cash his ticket and leave.

Months later they got busted. Just wonder if there is anyone paying attention.

I know small pools can have big swings but this is beyond the pale
whatever

The exacta is listed for $1 and the place for $2. That seems like a normal payout for a 1/2 shot over anything.

Thats not what he's Complaining about Sure that seems like a normal payout but I might be Miffed to If I checked the Will Pay after the race and its Showing a payout of $61

I'm sure the info he had was inaccurate. Or a $5 bet late moved the pool.

HArness Racing is crazy I just watched the 4th Race from Dover Downs and the only reason I did it as I was Scrolling around I noticed the 4 Horse was 1-9 and the other 4 horses in the race were 99-1. The 4 horse did Win and when I looked at the Pool right after the race it showed him having $99,885 bet to win out of $100,996. by the way there was win betting only.

By the way the Exacta paid $ 2.60 for a $2 bet
