Jenn Posted April 26, 2009 Report Share Posted April 26, 2009 I Backed Lindgren 35/1 £1 e/w, which gave me profit. but i didnt do the russian he surprised me and alot of other people by winning i think !! Plenty of forumers appear to have backed Emil, myself included, so not that much of a shock maybe?! Incidentally as mentioned elsewhere, i took 33/1 on Emil and 25/1 on Freddie......

GMILLS Posted April 26, 2009 Report Share Posted April 26, 2009 £2.50 E/W @ 33/1 so got £108.13 happy days Emil my new hero Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
salty Posted April 27, 2009 Report Share Posted April 27, 2009 Got a £5 e/w at 33/1. First bet I've had on an outright GP for a couple of years as a lot of the value has gone now the Bookies have become more clued up. Thought he was a stand out value bet, but didn't expect him to win the thing so that was a nice bonus! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bookies Posted April 28, 2009 Report Share Posted April 28, 2009 I did Lindgren £10 ew at 40/1 and a few heat bets and made a very tidy £265 profit blimey , you must have staked a lot on the few heat bets as a £10 e/w bet @40/1 would have shown you a profit of £500 unless your bookie underpaid you!!

Hows that work???? Surely if lingren won he would have won £400. cant see where you get your £500 from? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bookies Posted April 28, 2009 Report Share Posted April 28, 2009 because he had £10 on at 40/1 each way that would have paid £400 for the win and £100 the place if he got paid a 1/4 of the odds (although some bookies only offer a 1/5) paying out winnings of £500 he would then also been returned his £20 stake to make the total bookies payout £520 showing him a profit of £500 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RedcarSpike Posted April 28, 2009 Report Share Posted April 28, 2009 (edited) because he had £10 on at 40/1 each way that would have paid £400 for the win and £100 the place if he got paid a 1/4 of the odds (although some bookies only offer a 1/5) paying out winnings of £500 he would then also been returned his £20 stake to make the total bookies payout £520 showing him a profit of £500 Its my understanding that you loose the stake when you take each way. Plus if you had the winner you wouldnt get paid off the "each way £10" too? If im wrong i have been ripped off in every bookmakers i have ever been in Edited April 28, 2009 by RedcarSpike Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bookies Posted April 28, 2009 Report Share Posted April 28, 2009 i'm afraid you seem to have been ripped off in every bookmakers you have ever been in: The main thing to understand if you are about to place an "Each Way" bet is that you are placing TWO equal sized bets. You are placing a bet on the rider winning the meeting and you are placing a bet on the rider finishing in the "places" for the meeting . Thinking of the each-way bet in terms of two equal sized bets will make it easier to understand. When you hear someone say that they had, for example, "Ten pounds each-way" what they are saying is that they had £10 on the rider to win the meeting and £10 on the rider to finish "in the places" . to clarify below is an example from a bookmakers website Each Way Bet Where the horse wins the race the first part of the betting stake is multiplied by the odds and paid with that original part of the betting stake, and the other half of the betting stake is multiplied by a quarter of the odds and paid with the original part of the betting stake. For example where a £1 Each Way bet (£2 betting stake) is placed on a horse at odds of 8-1 the original £1 betting stake for the horse to win is multiplied by 8 and returned with the original £1 betting stake paying out £9. The other £1 of the betting stake is then multiplied by a quarter of the odds (ie 2) with the original £1 betting stake paying out £3. Therefore if the horse wins the bet results in a total £12 win. Where the horse comes in a top place in the horse race other than first place the original betting stake for the horse to win is lost and second part of the betting stake is multiplied by a quarter of the odds and paid with the original part of the betting stake. For example where a £1 Each Way bet (£2 betting stake) is placed on a horse at odds of 8-1 the original £1 betting stake for the horse to win is lost. The other £1 of the betting stake is then multiplied by a quarter of the odds (ie 2) and paid with the original £1 betting stake paying out £3 in total.
