A Beginners Guide to Tote Betting

Some Popular Bets:

WIN

This is a single bet requiring you to nominate the greyhound.

Ask for : Win – Trap Number – Stake
e.g. “Win -Trap 3 – £1″
Total investment = £1.00

PLACE

This is the simplest bet of all and requires you to nominate the greyhound which finishes either first or second.

Ask for : Place – Trap Number – Stake
e.g. “Place -Trap 3 – £1″
Total investment = £1.00

EACH WAY

This is two bets, a Win bet and a Place bet, on the same greyhound. If your selection wins, you will receive one Win divided (from the Win pool) and one Place dividend (from the Place pool). If your selection comes second, you will receive the Place dividend only.

Ask for : Each Way – Trap Number – Stake
