GOOD NEWS!
In order to make money at the races, you don't have to bet only on the winner anymore.
Thanks to our software "Winning Odds" you can
It all depends on their odds.
Indeed, our software allows you to bet on multiple selections (several competitors) in a single race for a fixed return or profit no matter which contender wins, provided it is among those you selected.
Competitors are usually horses, but the program will work on every competition that displays odds for all starters like greyhound racing or any other animal or human competition.
As a matter of fact, you can bet on up to 9 contenders in a given race! And you'll get the same amount of cash, regardless of which one wins!
"Ha, ha, ha..." might American smirk... "Some of our races don't even have that amount of starters!. We have races over here with only 5 or 6 starters".
That's OK, the program can make use of up to 9 odds, but it will work just fine with 2 or 3!In any case, you don't have to focus on THE winner anymore, but the possible WINNERS (plural). Then, according to their odds, you bet different amounts on each, in order to win a flat identical) quantity of money, whichever wins.
Whether you are wagering over the internet, logged in a bookmaker site, having a drink at a racetrack with a laptop computer or simply in any OTB parlor, you can make use of the program. How?
Simply jot down the odds of the contenders you want to bet on (2,3 ,4 ... up to 9), for example
Select the amount you wish to win by moving the scroll bar (or clicking on the words Lower, Higher)
That's it!
When you are attempting to play too many horses, you'll be warned that this kind of wagering is not possible:
Consequently, as the program suggests, you'll need to either reduce the quantity of horses to play or change the competitors to deal with (drop the favorite for instance, and place your wager on the following contenders).
This will do, even though you keep the favorite:
Or you drop it and play one more horse:
In races with a lot of starters (up to 20) the first favorite wins around 30% of the time.
In races with few competitors (like in America) favorites arrive first half of the time. Yah, that's a whopping 50%. What can you infer from these figures? A simple fact:
- Whether you bet or not on the favorite... you'll win as often!So, why not simply discard him and place your money on the next contenders, that have a lot better odds?
Kindly note that on races that have many competitors (which is the usual in Europe, for instance), betting the favorite and those that follow is often possible, because odds start high.
For example, look at this:- Vincennes the 7th of January - 18 horses - Purse $45,000 - Harness - Reunion1, race 3

Horse # 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 13 14 15 16 Odds 11/1 35/1 16/1 15/1 7/4 9/1 81/1 14/1 xxx 69/1 136/1 60/1 33/1 148/1 7/1 27/1
The same now, with competitors in the order according to their odds:
One could play up to 6 contenders and make 10% or our investment whichever won.
Or reduce the quantity to invest less:
or even less...
For your information, and out of curiosity, I'll tell you the winners:
- Winner: #18 that is the 2nd lowest odds
- Second: # 15, that is the third lowest odds
- Third: #5, that is the favorite.Isn't that great or what! In the first three places were the three lowest odds.
