I'm not going to say that I put £1k EW Bet on last night at 10:1 - that was a £2k Bet - pays out £10k I do believe??

But I won't say anything as you all just think I'm showing off!!

The bet on Labour to win is the best bet in recent weeks

EXCELLENT!!!

If I knew what I was actually doing, just imagine how well I would do!!

I just automatically thought that £1k to win at 10:1 odds meant I get back £11k? Maybe some quirk in the betting thingy then to get £14500??

So? I pay £2k to get £2.5k back?? Surely thats not right? I thought £1k went on a win and the other £1k on a place?

I never bet, only on some things like Elections/Grand National/Boat Race and stuff as a bit of fun

2k split into 2 bets:
1k win bet @10-1 = £10000 +£1000 stake = £11000
1k EW bet @10-1 divide by 4 for a place = 2.5-1 = £2500 +£1000 stake = £3500

£11000+£3500 = £14500

Just because someone doesn't follow the 'accepted' rules at all times doesn't make them a troll .............. why can't I punt a couple of grand on an annual horse race - I have for as long as I can remember (of course, way back in the 60's it was only a couple of quid).

I put £2 each way on Clan Royal & Hedgehunter. Was gutted when Clan Royal pulled up due to the 2 riderless nags but that soon gave way to a spot of manic cheering when Hedgehunter left the others behind in a trail of dust.

I think I will get back about £30 if my calculations ae correct - not much but it will pay of my original stakes and buy me a pint!
