Introduction

A gentleman who wagers, or indeed a gentlewoman, should


never be at a disadvantage when it comes to calculating the
amount of winnings he or she has managed to prise away from
the grasping clutches of his turf accountant. It would not do for
unseemly disagreements to occur upon the settlement of such
transactions. Such an unpleasant scene is inappropriate for a
person of any breeding to be immersed in.
In this book you will find one of the most comprehensive
ready reckoners ever to be produced and with our simple guide
to settling, which explains the short cuts and systems used by
the professional settler, there is no bet which you will not be
able to settle. It will banish the risk of any unfortunate miscal-
culations resulting in disputes with the staff of your local
betting emporium. Betting shops rely on computer systems to
calculate returns these days, but they are not infallible and it is
vital to be more aware of how much you have to collect in order
to detect possible errors.
There is a comprehensive but simple glossary explaining
some of the baffling betting and racing terms which you may
hear bandied about by those in the know, together with an
explanation of all of the most popular bets available in betting
shops. To complete this invaluable guide to betting and bet
calculation, there are various charts and tables and an explana-
tion of bookmaker rules which you need to bear in mind when
calculating bets. It is as well, however, to remember the fact
that with thousands of betting shops in Britain and Ireland and
hundreds of different firms, there are bound to be differences
in rules depending on where and in whose shops you are.
For example, if in a branch of one of the major companies
which operate nationwide you can rest assured you are extremely
unlikely to land a win which goes beyond their limits on what can
be paid. But if you are in a tiny village where the local shop is a
one-man operation, think twice about placing a bet which has the
potential to win more than a couple of hundred pounds; it is more

4
than likely that restrictive limits may be imposed on wagers there
– obviously with sound reason as the owner could otherwise go
out of business following a single, hefty successful wager.
But you are perfectly at liberty to ask to see a copy of the
rules in whichever shop you happen to be. If they are denied to
you the obvious answer is to take your business elsewhere. Big
bets coming up in your favour are few and far between and you
don’t want the additional worry of finding that you are not
going to get all you are entitled to on the memorable occasion
that you ‘have it off ’ with several winners, such as September
28 1996, when Frankie Dettori’s ‘Magnificent Seven’ winners
at Ascot almost bankrupted the entire bookmaking industry.
An example of differing rules is the ‘first past the post’ rule.
It states that the bookmaker will pay out only on the horse
which goes past the winning post in the first place even if there
is a subsequent objection or inquiry resulting in the disqualifi-
cation of the horse, where others will pay out only on the horse
declared the winner at the ‘weighed-in’ stage. However these
days, most bookies will generally pay out to those backing the
first past the post AND to those on the promoted winner. The
concession may not apply to foreign races.
There can even be differences in settling. In some shops each-
way doubles and accumulators are settled in such a way that after
each selection is calculated the resulting returns are equally
divided between win and place on to the next selection. However,
it is far more common for each-way doubles and accumulators to
be settled in separate halves – with win money going on to win
selections and place money going on to place selections.
If you can work out how much you’ve got to come on three
winners in a Heinz at odds of 8-13,100-30 and 13-2 with the
unit stake 15p, bearing in mind that Tattersalls Rule 4(c)
applied to one of the winners, and another of your selections
didn’t run – then you don’t need this little tome and this is
where you and we part company!
But if you’re still with us and haven’t a clue what the above bet
would work out to then you are evidently in need of the infor-
mation you will find contained within these pages and which will
enable you to sort out bets of this kind with the minimum of fuss

5
merely by following closely the simple guidelines given here.
Nor is there any reason to feel that unless your bet is a single
and a straightforward whole unit like £1 you’re hopelessly lost
– like the vast majority of betting shop punters who spend
hours working out their selections and stakes but then haven’t
the slightest idea how much they’ve got to come back on the
much-awaited occasions when good things come to pass.
And why should they, indeed? You wouldn’t expect a
complete outsider to be able to pick up the intricate details of
your own profession without any training, would you?
Nevertheless, the fact remains that if you have a basic knowl-
edge of how to work out a wager then you reduce the chances of
being under-settled by mistake. It would be as well to stress here
that if a bet is under-settled then it is almost 100 per cent certain
to be by accident, because the settlers who work in betting shops
are invariably trained to extremely high standards of proficiency,
and bookmakers are probably the most image-conscious group
of businessmen in the country. To them the slightest hint of bad
publicity is anathema. So they are particularly keen to ensure
that there is no dispute with genuine punters.
However, given the stress they are subjected to, particularly
on a busy Saturday afternoon and the speed with which they
have to work, it is not surprising that mistakes (whether in
favour of the punters or the bookies) occasionally occur.
We hope to be of use to all kinds of punters – from the occa-
sional dabblers who like a small flutter on the National all the
way through to the people who can afford to risk larger sums.
Basically the amounts involved are immaterial – it’s just as
important whether the stake is 10p or £10,000 that the end
result is calculated correctly. Keep this book close at hand at all
times and you can enjoy the journey up to the pay-out-window,
safe in the knowledge that when you get there you will be able
to insist on your dues.
Equipped with our essential guide you can approach the
pay-out window of your Betting Office with confidence, in the
full knowledge that your ability to calculate the rightful returns
from your successful investment is on a par with the chap or
chap-ess working on the other side of the counter.

Glossary of Betting-related Terms

Acceptances: At certain stages leading up to the day of a race,


owners and trainers must decide whether or not to leave
their entries in the race. These are known as acceptance
stages and every race has one five days prior to the race, with
one on the day before the race for jump cards and two days
before the race for Flat (turf and all weather).
Across-the-Card: A term indicating that all selections are
running at different meetings in races timed within 15
minutes of each other.
All up to win: In races of four runners or less the place portion
of an each-way wager goes on to win as there is no place
betting returned in such races.
Also ran: Refers to any selection not finishing first, second, third
or fourth in a race.
Ante-post: Ante-post prices are those on major events prior to
the final acceptance stage for a race or until ‘non-runner no-
bet’ terms are introduced. Bets are normally struck on the
understanding that if the selection does not take part the
wager is lost, but to compensate for this penalty the odds on
offer are more generous. Exception to this rule is when a
selection is balloted out of a race and in such circumstances
the bet is void and stakes returned.
Any-to-come (ATC) or If Cash: This term is used when part of
the returns from one wager are automatically reinvested on
a subsequent bet. For example: £2 Win Mill Reef, any-to-
come, £1 Win The Minstrel. The total stake of the wager is
£2, and the £1 on The Minstrel only stands if there is a
return from Mill Reef.
Apprentice: An apprentice is a trainee jockey who claims a weight
allowance which decreases as he or she rides more winners.
Arbs: Term to describe situation where odds are available from
different bookmakers enabling punters to bet on every possi-
ble outcome of a race or match and guarantee a profit. ‘Arbers’
bet only on such situations and ‘Arbing’ describes this.

7
Banker: Term used to describe the backer’s most fancied selection,
and when included as a bet instruction, that selection must win.
Bar: Apart from being the place of refreshment to which most
punters retire after a heavy session with the bookies, bar
refers to those runners in a race not quoted with a price
during early betting shows. This is an increasingly rare
phenomenon. For example S.I.S. quoting ‘14-1 bar six’
means that at least 14-1 is available against any of the
runners other than the six already quoted. Bookmakers do
not normally lay the bar price against any named horse.
Beeswax: Slang for betting tax which of course you no longer
pay.
Betting Exchanges: Internet sites enabling punters to act effec-
tively as bookmakers by offering or accepting their own odds
for a variety of events.
Betting forecast: The odds of a race as predicted by the daily
newspapers.
Blinkers: Horses that are easily distracted while racing are
normally fitted with blinkers, which enable them to see only
in a straight line ahead of them.
Board/Show price: The price, relayed from the racecourse, which
may be taken by punters, and, regardless of the final returned
starting price, the price at which such bets are settled.
Bogey: The biggest loser in a betting book.
Bottle: 2-1.
Bumper races: Flat races run under National Hunt Rules.
Burlington Bertie: 100-30.
Carpet: 3-1.
Classics: This term is used to describe the five major three-year-
old races of the flat season; the 1,000 Guineas; the 2,000
Guineas; the Derby; the Oaks and the St. Leger. Of these,
fillies can be entered for all five, but colts cannot enter the
1,000 Guineas or the Oaks.
Cockle: 10-1 (Sometimes £10).
Computer Forecast: Known as the CSF, these are the returns
used by bookmakers to calculate Forecast bet payouts.
Conditional Bet: A bet which is dependent on a specific condi-
tion being fulfilled e.g. ‘if win’ ‘if lose’ ‘any to come’ etc.

8
Coupling: In some countries, France for example, horses in the
same ownership are treated as one selection for betting
purposes. These horses are coupled in the race course pool.
Dead heat: This is when two or more selections cannot be sepa-
rated by the judge even after consulting the photo-finish.
When settling bets, simply halve the stake.
Double Carpet: 33-1.
Doubly-engaged: Term used where a horse is entered in two or
more races on the same day.
Down-the-card: Indicates races at the same meeting.
Double Net: 20-1.
Double Taps: 15-8.
Draw: At the acceptance stage all the entries in a flat race are
given a stall number from which they will start. Depending
on the positioning of the stalls, the state of the going and the
layout of the course the draw may favour high, middle or low
numbers at different tracks. This does not apply in National
Hunt racing where stalls are not used.
Each-way: An each-way bet requires two stakes of which one is
invested to WIN and the other for a PLACE (in most races to
finish 1st, 2nd or 3rd). Each-way accumulative bets are usually
settled ‘win to win’, ‘place to place’ (see Equally Divided).
Early bird prices: Prices offered by bookmakers on selected races
in advance of the race course betting.
Ear ‘Ole: 6-4.
Equally Divided (ED): Method of betting ‘each-way’ in accu-
mulative bets where the return from one selection is equally
divided and re-invested ‘win and place’ on the next selection,
and so on.
Exes: 6/1.
Face: 5/2.
Faces: Shrewd gamblers.
Favourite: The favourite is the shortest priced participant in an
event. Where two or more runners occupy this position they
are named ‘joint favourites’ or ‘co-favourites’. Roughly forty
per cent of all races are won by the favourite.
First Past the Post: Method of settlement where bets are settled
on the first horse home. Winnings are not affected by

9
amended results due to objections and Stewards Enquiries
for interference etc.
First Show: Opening odds on a race.
Flat racing: Begins at the end of March and runs through until
early November on turf. Races are run over a minimum
distance of five furlongs (5/8 mile), and a maximum of 23⁄4
miles. The official Flat racing season now runs for a calen-
dar year to include those Flat races run on the All Weather
surfaces at courses such as Lingfield, Kempton, Southwell
and Wolverhampton.
Form: ‘form’ is the history of a selection’s past performance.
Full cover: The full amount of doubles, trebles and accumula-
tors involved in a given number of selections.
‘Going-in’: Message given in betting shops when the grey-
hounds are being put into the traps or horses into the stalls.
Going to post: Nothing to do with the Post Office. It merely
means that the horses are on their way to the start of a race.
Grand: £1000.
Hand: 5-1.
Handicap: These are races where each entry is given a certain
weight designed to ensure that in ideal circumstances the
race would be a dead-heat. Of course this rarely happens.
‘Blot on the handicap’ refers to a situation where one horse
appears to have been allocated far less weight than his past
performances entitle him to.
‘Hare is Running’: Announcement given in betting shops prior
to the ‘off ’ of a greyhound race, signals the close of betting.
Hedging: Bookmakers reducing potential liabilities by having a
bet themselves.
IBAS: Independent Betting Arbitration Service – offering a free
adjudication service to betting shop customers in the event of
a dispute. Bookmakers almost invariably agree to abide by its
rulings. Details of how to contact IBAS are available in betting
shops – or check their internet site at www.ibas-uk.com
In the frame: Means a horse has finished first, second, third or
fourth. The expression derives from the racecourse where

August. They can be from five furlongs to one and a quarter
miles long.
Objection: Connections may believe that their horse was unfair-
ly treated in running by another member of the field and
may object to the other horse retaining its final placing.
Objections are normally lodged for reasons such as

11
bumping, boring, crossing, taking ground etc. No bets are
official until the stewards have deliberated over the objection
and the ‘weighed in’ signal has been given.
Odds against: Where the odds are greater than evens they are
known as odds against.

is a cheaper enclosure and this is known as the ‘Silver Ring’.
Ringer: Superior horse substituted for inferior one.

ported to the various starting positions on the racecourse.
On courses where stalls are not in use the races are started
using a barrier or flag.
Starting price (SP): Unless a punter requests otherwise, all
wagers are settled at starting price. The starting price is
arrived at by taking a consensus of prices available from
selected on-course bookmakers, along with an input from
on-course representatives of major off-course betting shop
companies, as recommended by the Starting Price
Regulatory Committee chaired by Lord Donoghue.
Steamer: Heavily backed horse – usually reported by one J.
McCririck.
Steeplechasing: A form of National Hunt racing run over
distances from two miles up to four and a half miles, where
the horses jump fences of varying height, and consistency.
Stewards enquiry: On any suspected infringements of the Rules
of Racing the stewards hold investigations. These are carried
out in a similar manner to objections.

13
Tattersalls’ Rule 4(c): When a horse is withdrawn without coming
under starter’s orders, and there is insufficient time to re-form
the betting market, backers of the withdrawn horse are entitled
to their stakes back. However, deductions are then made to
winning bets as detailed in Tattersalls’ Rules of betting.
Through the card (TTC): When a jockey, a particular number, a
punter, the favourites, or a racing tipster etc. has been
successful in every event at a particular meeting, he or she is
described as having gone through the card.
Tic Tac: Manual system used by on-course bookmakers to
transmit prices of horses (see illus on pp 188–192) Although
John McCririck keeps the art alive it is now an endangered
species of communication.
Tips: 11-10
Tissue: Advance betting forecast prepared by form expert.
Ton: £100.
Top of the Head: 9-4.
Tote: ‘The Horserace Totalisator Board’ is Government
controlled and was set up to operate pool-betting on all race-
courses. They have since opened up branches in the High
Streets and also allow bets to be placed at SP. As the book
went to press, plans for a sale of the Tote were progressing.
Tote returns: To calculate the returns from a tote pool – known
as a dividend – the total stake in each pool (less the statutory
deduction to cover operational expenses) is divided by the
number of winning tickets and a dividend is declared to a
fixed stake, for various win, place and forecast pools.
Bookmakers wishing to lay bets at tote returns must obtain
authorization from the Tote, to whom they pay a fee.
Trainer’s selected: If two or more entries trained by the same
stable participate in a race the term ‘trainer’s selected’ refers
to the one starting at the shorter price.
Trap Number: In greyhound racing, the dogs start from
numbered boxes (usually 1-6) which are called traps.
Under (starter’s) orders: When the official starter is completely
satisfied that all the runners for the race are at the start (in
flat races, in the correct stalls) and ready to race, a flag is
raised signalling that the field is under orders and ‘off ’. Bets

14
on any runner failing to start after this signal, are lost.
Unnamed Selections: Numbered selections, trap numbers,
favourites etc. are referred to as unnamed selections.
Up the Arm: 11-8.
Void Bet: A bet which is declared invalid. The stake is returned
without deduction.
Walk-over: A walk-over occurs when only one entry goes to the
post. For settling purposes a winner of a walk-over is treated
as a non-runner.
Weighed in: To ensure that jockeys weigh the same after a race
as when they ‘weighed out’ before the race they must report
to the Clerk of the Scales within a certain time after the race
is run. When all is well the ‘weighed in’ signal is announced
and from a betting point of view the result cannot be altered.
Weight for age: Horses of different ages carry weights according
to a scale formulated by the Jockey Club.
Wrist: 5-4.
X: Frequent alias used by winners of large amounts who do not
wish for any publicity.
Yearling: Every horse has its official birthday on January 1.
Horses of less than official age two are yearlings.

any four selections win and the remaining selection finishes
2nd.
Tote Jackpot: Only available on-course and at selected off-
course locations. A pool bet where the punter has to select a
horse to win in each of the first six races at a selected horse
race meeting.

to be placed in each of the first six races at a horse race
meeting. The dividend is declared from the racecourse based
on a £1 unit stake.
Tote Quadpot: Pick a horse to be placed in each of four
nominated races – usually races 3,4,5 and 6.
Tote Trifecta: Pick 1st, 2nd, 3rd in correct order in nominated

chosen to finish in the correct order. Tricasts are available on
Handicap horse races of 6 or more runners and Greyhound
races of 6 or more runners.
Trixie: Consists of four bets involving three selections in differ-
ent events – three doubles and one treble.
Union Jack: There are nine selections in a Union Jack and they
are all in different events. The selections ABCDEFGHI are
numbered one to nine and make up into eight trebles. The
trebles are ABC, DEF, GHI, ADG, BEH, CFI, AEI, GEC
and the bet is written on the slip like so:
A B C
D E F
G H I
Virtual racing: Computer generated presentation of horse and
or greyhound races. A random number generator determines
the 1st, 2nd, 3rd and the rest of the finishing order. All
runners have fixed odds representing their chance of
winning.
With the field: Means that you wish to have one selection (e.g. a
horse) linked with all the other horses in an event. It can
apply to forecasts e.g. Horse A with the field in straight
forecasts (6 runners) i.e. 5 bets; or in doubles etc. e.g. Horse
A the selection in the first race, with the field (6 runners) in
the second i.e. 6 bets.
Yankee: Consists of eleven bets with four selections in different
races – six doubles, four trebles and an accumulator.

Sports Betting Rules

Not too many years ago, with the exception of football, very
few bets were made on sports other than horse and greyhound
racing. Today, however, with daily television coverage on a wide
range of sports, bookmakers now offer odds and the opportu-
nity to bet on anything from athletics to yachting. (Zebra
racing has yet to put in an appearance – but it is probably only
a matter of time!)
Generally speaking the main points of the bookmaker’s rules
and settling stipulations apply equally to sports bets as to horse
or greyhound racing. However, there are some special rules and
points to note which only apply to specific sports.

GENERAL RULES FOR SPORTS BETTING


(William Hill Rules, other companies may vary)

The odds/handicaps marked on your slip are for information


purposes only and, in the event of an error, settlement will
always be at the correct odds/handicap available at the time the
bet was placed.

Where the odds for both outright win and handicap betting are
advertised, unless the handicap or a qualifying price has been
written on the slip, all bets will be settled on the outright win.
However, where only handicap betting is available bets will be
settled at the handicap advertised at the time the bet was
accepted, whether written on the slip or not.

The handicap line may change at any time. If this occurs settle-
ment will be determined by the handicap advertised at the time
the bet was accepted. Where the final scores are equal after the
handicap has been applied, handicap bets will be void unless
odds have been offered for the draw/tie.

Winning Margin/Correct Score betting is from scratch.

20
In the event of a change of opponent from the one advertised,
all bets for that match are void.

In the event of a change of venue not published or known at


the time the odds or handicaps are advertised, bets will stand
provided the match is not switched to the opponent’s ground,
in which case selections for that match will be made void.

Where there is more than one competitor with the same


surname and the selection has not been identified by either first
name, team where applicable, or qualifying price the competi-
tor with the lowest advertised price will be taken as the selec-
tion. In the event of one or more competitor(s) being quoted at
the lowest advertised price the stake will be divided between
them.

Permutations must be accompanied by clear instructions and


any number of selections without specific instructions will be
settled as an accumulator, subject to any maximum/
minimum requirements.

Accumulative bets involving different contingencies within the


same event are not accepted where the outcome of one affects
the other unless special odds are available.

Unless a specific reference is made in the individual section that


covers the sport, abandoned or postponed events are void
unless they are re-arranged and take place in the same week
(Monday to Monday). However, bets in markets that have
already been resolved at the time of abandonment, such as
‘First Goalscorer’ or ‘First Touchdown Scorer’ etc. will stand.

Unless advertised otherwise, total tournament /series markets


will apply to all playing time, including extra time.

Unless a specific reference is made in the individual section that


covers the sport, the following rules will apply:

21
i) Events with 3 or more competitors/teams: Where no price
is quoted for a tie and the official competition rules do not
determine a clear winner dead heat rules will apply to
outright bets on competitors/teams declared as joint/co
winners. Where no official result is declared, outright bets
will be made void.
ii) Events with 2 competitors/teams: Where no price is quoted
for a tie and the official result is a tie dead heat rules will
apply. Where no official result is declared, outright bets will
be made void.

For special bets such as “Premier League Managers who will


not be in charge of their premiership club by the end of the
season, etc”. The end of the season is determined as the time
when the programme, for that particular league, has been
completed.

AMERICAN FOOTBALL

a) Overtime counts except for betting on the ‘Double Result’


or the ‘Quarter with the most points’.

b) Individual player bets e.g. ‘First Touchdown Scorer’ will


stand if a player is “suited up” and ready to play. Bets placed
on a player who is not “suited up” will be void.

c) Outright bets stand provided at least 55 minutes of play


have taken place and an official result is declared.

ATHLETICS

In the event of a disqualification, the ‘medals’ ceremony will


count as the ‘weigh-in’ and this will determine settlement. In
the absence of a medals ceremony bets will be settled on a ‘first
past the post’ basis.

22
BASEBALL

a) Listed Pitchers: All Baseball betting is offered on the basis


that both the pitchers listed at the time the bet is struck start
the game and throw at least one pitch each.

b) If either pitcher fails to start, outright win, total runs and


handicap bets are void.

c) If a match is abandoned after play has started outright win


bets stand provided there has been at least 5 innings of play
or the home team is leading after 41⁄2 innings. In the event
of a tie, bets are void. Bets on total runs and the handicap
will stand provided there have been a least 9 innings of play
or the home team is leading after 81⁄2 innings.

d) Extra innings (overtime) count for outright win, handicap


and total points betting.

e) Postponed Match: All bets void.

BASKETBALL

a) If a match is abandoned after play has started handicap and


total points bets are void, unless a winning market has
already been established for total points, in which case bets
will stand. Outright win bets stand provided that 43 minutes
of an NBA match has been played or 35 minutes of a
NCAA match.

b) Overtime counts for outright win, handicap, total points and


second half betting.

c) Postponed match: All bets void.

d) The first quarter must be completed for ‘First Quarter’ bets


to stand. Likewise, the first half must be completed for ‘First
Half ’ bets to stand.

23
BOWLS

Match Betting: In the event of a match starting but not being


completed the player progressing to the next round will be
deemed the winner. However set betting will be void.

BOXING

a) A fight is defined as having started once the bell is sounded


for the beginning of the first round.

b) In the event of a ‘no contest’ being declared all bets will be


made void.

c) Should there be a withdrawal or a substitution for one of the


boxers concerned, bets will be void. A price will be offered
for a draw and in the event of that occurring bets on either
boxer to win will be lost.

d) Outright bets are settled on the result as declared in the ring


and are not subject to any revisions or amendments made
after the boxers have left the ring.

e) Round by Round Betting: If for any reason a points decision


is awarded before the full number of rounds are completed,
or a boxer is disqualified, bets will be settled on the round in
which the fight was stopped. Bets which nominate ‘to win
on points’ will only be deemed winners if the full number of
rounds are completed. If for any reason the selected number
of rounds on which we are betting is changed, all round by
round bets will be void. If a boxer withdraws during the
period between rounds the fight is deemed to have ended in
the previous round. The bell will signal the end of a round
and the bell being sounded again will signal the start of the
next round.

24
CRICKET

a) Singles and upwards accepted.

b) i) Outright Betting – Limited Overs Matches: If a match


is shortened by adverse weather or for any other reason,
bets will be governed by the official competition rules.
Where no official result is declared, outright bets will be
made void.
ii) Outright Betting – Test Matches: If a match is shortened
by adverse weather or for any other reason, bets will stand
on the official result provided at least one ball has been
bowled. In the event of a tied test match (i.e. where all
innings have been completed and both teams have the
same score) dead heat rules will apply and stakes on the
draw will be lost.

c) If a match is abandoned due to outside interference, and no


official result is declared, bets will be made void.

d) Limited Overs Matches: Where no price is quoted for the


tie and the official result is a tie, dead heat rules will apply.

e) i) County Championship Match Betting: Bets will only be


accepted up to the advertised start of play on the first day
of the match.
ii) No price will be offered for the draw. In the event of a
draw or tie all bets on the match result will be made void.
Abandoned or postponed matches are void.

f ) Series Betting: Bets void if designated number of matches


are not completed, unless a sufficient number of tests are
played to determine the series.

g) Top Batsman/Wicket Taker in Match: Betting is available


on the first innings only, unless otherwise stated. Bets stand
regardless of the number of overs bowled.

25
h) Bets placed on any player not in the starting 11 are void.
Bets on players who are selected but do not bat will be
deemed to have scored zero runs and those that do not bowl
to have taken zero wickets.

i) Total Runs: – For bets to stand the total number of overs


must be bowled, unless a winning market has already been
established, in which case bets will stand.

CYCLING

In the event of a disqualification, the podium presentation will


count as the ‘weigh-in’ and this will determine settlement.

DARTS

Match Betting: In the event of a match starting but not being


completed the player progressing to the next round will be
deemed the winner. However set betting will be void.

FOOTBALL

Football is by far the most popular of all sports betting.


Demand is such that bookmakers produce a variety of coupons
for domestic and foreign club and international games
throughout the year. Bets are taken on matches and tourna-
ments in a huge number of countries – e.g. Serie A, La Liga,
Bundesliga etc.
All bets on individual matches are based on the score at the
end of normal time and in Cup matches any goals scored in
extra time will not count, unless specified.
In Cup Finals where there is outright betting to win the
Cup as well as on the result of the match, anyone wishing to
bet outright must state this on their bet otherwise it will be
settled on the 90 minute odds. Bets on abandoned matches are
void – where games are postponed punters will usually have the
option to let the bet stand or have it voided.
First and last goal scorer betting is always popular in live

26
matches but often causes disagreements as deciding the goal
scorer is not always clear cut. For instance a forward will often
claim a goal if his shot is heading towards the corner flag and
is deflected into the net off a defender. Players on the same side
probably caught up in the emotion of a Cup win, have also
been known to ‘give’ a doubtful goal to a team mate.
Bookmakers will generally pay out on the goalscorer as identi-
fied by the Press Association Agency.

GAELIC FOOTBALL AND HURLING

All match bets will be based on the result at the end of normal
time.

GOLF

a) i) Outright Betting: Stakes on players who withdraw


before a tournament starts will be refunded and no
Tattersalls Rule 4 deduction will be applied to winning
bets..
ii) Play-offs will determine the tournament winner. Dead
heat rules will apply for placings.

b) i) Tournament Match Betting: The winner will be the


player achieving the highest placing at the end of the
tournament.
ii) If one player misses the cut, the other is deemed the
winner. Where both players miss the cut the lowest score
after the cut has been made will determine settlement. If
both players fail to complete a particular round, the
winner will be the player with the lowest score from the
previous round.
If one player is disqualified, either prior to the comple-
tion of two rounds or after both players have made the
cut, the other player is deemed the winner. If both players
are disqualified the player who progresses furthest in the
tournament will be deemed the winner. If a player is
disqualified during either the 3rd or 4th rounds, when his

27
opponent has already missed the cut, the disqualified
player is deemed the winner.
iii)A price will be offered for the tie and in the event of a tie
bets on either player to win will be lost.
Where a match bet involves three players (threesome)
the conditions listed above will apply, except in the event
of a tie where dead heat rules will apply. Non runner –
threesome void.

c) Group Betting/Top U.K. Player etc: Groups will consist of


four or more players and the winner will be the player
achieving the highest placing at the end of the tournament.
Any player missing the cut will be considered a loser. If all
players miss the cut, the lowest score after the cut has been
made will determine settlement. If a player is disqualified
settlement will be on the same basis as for match betting.
Players are grouped together for betting purposes only.
Non runner – no bet, deductions in line with Tattersalls’
Rule 4 will apply. Dead heat rules apply except where the
winner is determined by a play-off.

d) i) 18 Hole Betting: The winner will be the player with the


lowest score over 18 holes.
In the event of a 2 or 3 ball being re-arranged, bets will
be settled on the original pairings/groups. In the event of
any non runners then the 2 or 3 ball will be void.
In 2 ball betting a price will be offered for the tie.
Dead heat rules will apply to 3 ball betting.
ii) If a player is disqualified his opponent will be deemed the
winner unless play in the next round has started in which
case bets will be settled on the original scores. Where
both/all players are disqualified bets will be void unless
play in the next round has started in which case bets will
be settled on the original scores.
iii)When special bets are offered grouping more than 3
players over 18 holes (e.g. 7 ball, 9 ball etc.) dead heat
rules will apply. Non runner-no bet, deductions in line
with Tattersalls’ Rule 4 will apply.

28
e) Matchplay: If a match has started, but is not completed for
whatever reason bets will be settled on the official result.

f ) i) General Rules: In tournaments affected by adverse


weather or where the number of rounds scheduled to be
played are reduced for any other reason, outright bets will
be settled on the official result regardless of the number
of rounds played, unless there is no further play after a bet

off. In the event of a player withdrawing after having teed
off, stakes will be lost on outright, group, match and 18
hole betting.

by any subsequent enquiries.

b) i) Individual Race Betting: The start of the race is defined

ii) In the event of a disqualification, the podium presenta-

29
tion will count as the ‘weigh-in’ and this will determine
settlement.

determined by the number of points accumulated immedi-
ately following the final Grand Prix of the season and will
not be affected by any subsequent enquiries.

finish the race in the podium/points positions, with the
podium presentation counting as the weigh-in.
Subsequent enquiries will not affect settlement of bets.
Points finish – singles only.
iii)Match Betting (Driver vs Driver): In the event of neither
driver finishing, the number of laps completed will deter-
mine settlement but if both drivers have completed the
same number of full laps, bets will be void.
iv) Fastest Qualifying Lap: settlement will be based on the
driver who is announced as recording the fastest qualify-
ing lap, immediately following the end of the qualifying

versa.

All above are William Hill rules. Other companies may differ.

And finally, all odds are offered on the basis that they reflect the
outcome of a single event. This does not mean that you are
unable to do Doubles, Trebles etc on sports events, but each
event must be unrelated otherwise special odds apply. For
instance you can back Arsenal, Celtic and Luton in a treble as
each team winning does not affect the outcome of the others.
However, with a bet on Arsenal to win 1-0 and Thierry Henry
to score the first goal, clearly the two parts of the bet are
related. Special odds will be quoted on such related contingen-
cies. Likewise, usually expect reduced odds in multiple bets
which involve the same side or player to win more than one
event – the Grand Slam in Golf or Tennis, for example.

32
Important Betting Rules

Generally speaking, working out bets is a simple process of


checking the odds of the winners and using the Ready
Reckoner or calculator to find the returns.
However, settling is not always straightforward and along
the way there are a number of obstacles waiting to trip you up.
If you don’t know how to deal with them when they arise, you
can’t expect to agree your winnings with the professional
bookies settler.
For example what happens if one of your selections is a non-
runner? How does a dead-heat affect your winnings? What if
you have understaked or overstaked your bet?
In this section we provide a simple answer to all these ques-
tions – and more.

Dead Heat
In the event of a dead-heat for first place when you have made
a winning bet, half the stake is lost, and full odds are paid on
the other half.
In the case of each-way or place only bets where the selec-
tion dead-heats for a place, stakes are paid in full, unless the
dead-heat affects the last available place – e.g. 2nd in a race of
5 to 7 runners; 3rd in a field of up to twelve; 4th in a handicap
race of 16 runners or more, and so on – when half the place
stake is lost and full place odds paid to the remainder.
For example: £1 Double A and B. A is an outright winner at
5-1 and B dead-heats for 1st place at 4-1. The calculation is
therefore £1 @ 5-1 = £6. £6 @ 4-1 dead-heat is £3 @ 4-1 = £15
with the remainder of the stake lost.
When using the pyramid block to calculate bets, simply
halve any stake running on to a dead-heat selection.

Non-Runners
In Single bets, if your selection does not run then your stake is
returned (except in ante post betting where stakes are usually

33
lost on non-runners). In Doubles and Trebles etc, the stake is
allowed to run on to the remaining selection(s).
For instance, if A and B are taken in a Double and ‘A’ is a
non-runner, the bet becomes a Single on ‘B’. If A, B and C
form a Treble, then if ‘A’ is a non-runner, the bet stands as a
Double on ‘B’ and ‘C’.
In multiple bets with a non-runner, each individual line is
treated separately. For instance in a Yankee A B C D – the 11
bets are as follows:
6 Doubles *AB *AC *AD BC BD CD. 4 Trebles *ABC
*ABD *ACD BCD, 1 Accumulator *ABCD. If ‘A’ is a non-
runner*, you will see that the 11 bets become 3 Singles B, C D,
6 Doubles BC BD CD BC BD CD, 2 Trebles BCD BCD.
When using the pyramid block (see page 57), simply enter
the non-runner at the top of your list of odds and enter the unit
stake in the Single column. For instance if you are calculating
to a 10p unit then your first column would read:

odds singles
NR 10p

Then simply proceed as usual.

Rule 4
As explained in the Glossary of Terms, Rule 4 is a method used
to compensate bookmakers where a withdrawn horse has effec-
tively shortened the odds on the remainder of runners but there
is insufficient time before the race to amend those odds. When
settling, simply find the rate of deduction applicable to the
winning odds of the horse (eg 3-1 = 25p in the £) and deduct
from winnings only (do not include stake).
For instance £10 @ 5-1 with a 25p in the £ deduction is
calculated as follows:
£10 x 5 = £50 deduct 50 x 25p (£12.50) = £37.50 + £10 stake
= £47.50.

Over/Understaking
To receive the correct amount of winnings for your bet you

34
must ensure that the correct amount of stake is paid when the
bet is placed.
Occasionally, however, mistakes will occur and you will pay
too little or too much for your bet. This could be due to an error
when totalling your bets or because you have miscalculated the
correct number of bets for the number of selections chosen.
Either way the rules are the same.
If you pay too little, or too much, then your return is paid in
proportion to the correct amount for the bet. For instance 10p
win Yankee – staked £1.00. You will receive £1.00⁄£1.10
(10⁄11th) of your winnings. If the return is £22.00 then simply
multiply by the amount paid: £22.00 x 10 = £220.00 and divide
by the correct stake for the bet £220.00 ÷ 11 = £20.00. If the
bet loses you will not be asked to make up the difference.

Too Few or Too Many Selections


Another error made from time to time is to add an extra selec-
tion or forget one.
Where a selection is forgotten in a standard multiple bet –
i.e. a yankee, Lucky 15 etc., a non-runner is added to make up
the correct number of selections. For instance in a Yankee if the
selections nominated are A B and C, a non-runner is added for
the fourth selection. Settlement is then identical to the example
given in our explanation of non-runners.
Where an extra selection is inadvertently added, then the
number of bets is usually adjusted to equal the total number of
selections. For instance, 5 selections given in a 10p Yankee with
a stake of £1.10, is adjusted to a Canadian (26) bets and the
return proportioned 11⁄ 26th.
Knowing these pitfalls is a good incentive to getting your
bets right. So take care – there is no use blaming the book-
maker – it is your responsibility to check out his rules in
advance.

35
A Value for Money Bet … Or Not?

What represents a value for money bet?


Is it the horse you back at 5/1 which shortens down to 13/8
and finishes second – or is it the horse you back at 13/8 which
drifts out to 5/1 – and wins?
Value is the Holy Grail of punting – but it means different
things to different people.
Everyone will agree that ‘getting the value’ is the key to
successful betting, but few will agree on the definition of value.
So what point is there in our writing an article on value?
Well, the point is that perhaps we can tell you what a book-
maker would regard as a punter securing value.
For starters, bookmakers are always a little wary when a
punter is setting the rules. If, for example, he or she wants to
back him or herself to achieve something. Passing exams,
maybe, or losing weight.
In these cases the advantage has to be with the punter who
must know better than the bookie what the chances of achiev-
ing the aim may be. Ask Alec Holden who, aged 90 in 1997,
backed himself with me at 250/1 to live to be 100. In April
2007 I handed him a cheque for £25,000. He got the value!
But, by their very nature, these types of punting opportuni-
ties are few and far between.
The average reader of this book will be contemplating staking
the majority of his or her bets on horses, dogs or major sporting
events, and we have to tell you, that whatever you know about
these three, the bookie knows at least as much, if not more.
Or does he? Just ask those audacious punters, the Hole In
One gang who came up with the simple but hugely effective
and profitable idea of requesting odds about any player scoring
a hole in one at major golf tournaments, knowing that the true
odds were somewhere around 7/4, then helping themselves to
the many offers of longer odds than that, which in one case,
went up to 100/1. That is undeniably value.
It may be slightly more difficult to come up with a compa-

36
rable example of value in horse racing but don’t despair. After
all, unless you are a member of that legendary and – according
to its own members – endangered species, the Professional
Punter – in which case you won’t be reading this – you don’t
need to look for Value and nothing but Value every time you
put pen to betting slip.
Don’t forget, an equally important consideration is that you
are enjoying yourself by having a bet and that you are indulging
in an enjoyable and sometimes profitable hobby.
But to secure value in the highly competitive horse racing
market it is essential to open accounts with the major book-
makers and exchanges, read the Racing Post, watch Racing UK
and At The Races and, most important of all, develop a sixth
sense – this latter to enable you to deduce whether the horse on
the drift represents a shrewd investment or an opportunity to
chuck money away.
The accounts will enable you to get first grabs at the best
value early morning prices offered on a daily basis and
pinpointed regularly by the Post’s specialist tipsters. These are
men paid to do nothing but suss out the best bets for you and
if you were better at it than them you’d either have their job or
you’d have retired on the profits by now.
Their problem is that they are expected to tip regularly,
regardless of whether they would really prefer to recommend
no bet on certain occasions.
Your great advantage is that you don’t HAVE to bet on any
given occasion. You always have the option of deciding not to
play.
Despite the fact that the perceived wisdom is that the
bookies offer no value at all, every race will have a winner and
every bookmaker has to take money or he will go out of busi-
ness.
The value is there, the bookie may try to camouflage it, you

Tattersalls’ Rules on Betting

These Rules were authorised by Tattersalls’ Committee on February


8, 1886, and revised in April 1994.
1. Tattersalls’ Committee have authority to settle all questions
relating to bets, commissions for bets and any matters arising
either directly or indirectly out of wagers or gaming transac-
tions on horse racing, to adjudicate on all cases of default and
at their discretion, to report defaulters to the Jockey Club. If a
defaulter is a partnership or limited Company all or any of the
partners or their agents and all or any of the Shareholders,
Directors, Officers or Agents of the defaulting Company may
be reported to the Jockey Club.
Upon an application being made to the Committee in any
case to admit or hear further evidence, the Committee may at
its discretion decide to re-hear such a case and upon such re-
hearing may admit such further evidence and uphold, reverse or
amend its original decision or adjudication as it may think fit.
2. In all bets there must be a possibility to win when the bet is
made.
3. No betting first past the post will be recognised by the
Committee.
4. All bets made, stand and are subject to the official ‘weigh in’
with the following exceptions.
(A) Single Ante-Post bets, being bets made before 10am on the
day of the overnight declarations will be void under the follow-
ing circumstances:
1) If the race is abandoned
2) If the race is declared void
3) If the ‘Conditions’ of the race entry are changed prior to
the horse coming under starter’s orders.
4) If the venue is altered
5) If a horse is eliminated under Jockey Club Rule 125
However in any such circumstances accumulative Ante-Post
bets (win or place) will stand and be settled at the ante-post
price(s) laid on the remaining horse(s).

38
Any race in which a horse is supplemented does not affect
Rule 4 (A).
(B) Bets other than Ante-Post bets will be void if the race is
abandoned, declared void or postponed to another day, or if
they are on a horse which does not come under starter’s orders
or on a horse declared by the starter ‘not to have started’. Bets
‘on the distance’ are void if the first or second horse is disqual-
ified or the placings are reversed.
(C) In the case of bets made at a price on the day of the race
before it has been officially notified that a horse has been with-
drawn before coming under starter’s orders or has been
declared ‘not to have started’, the liability of a layer against any
horse remaining in the race, win or place, will be reduced in
accordance with the following scale depending on the odds
current against the withdrawn horse at the time of such official
notification.
(a) if the current odds are 3/10 or longer odds on by 75p in
the £, (1/4 to 1/5 = 80p in £; 2/11 to 2/17 = 85p in £; 1/9 or
shorter = 90p in £)
(b) 2/5 to 1/3 – 70p in the £
(c) 8/15 to 4/9 – 65p in the £
(d) 8/13 to 4/7 – 60p in the £
(e) 4/5 to 4/6 – 55p in the £
(f ) 20/21 to 5/6 – 50p in the £
(g) Evens to 6/5 – 45p in the £
(h) 5/4 to 6/4 – 40p in the £
(i) 13/8 to 7/4 – 35p in the £
(j) 15/8 to 9/4 – 30p in the £
(k) 5/2 to 3/1 – 25p in the £
(l) 10/3 to 4/1 – 20p in the £
(m) 9/2 to 11/2 – 15p in the £
(n) 6/1 to 9/1 – 10p in the £
(o) 10/1 to 14/1 – 5p in the £
(p) If over 14/l the liability would be unchanged.
(q) In the case of two or more horses being withdrawn
before coming under starter’s orders the total reduction shall
not exceed 75p in the £.

39
In the case of withdrawals in reformed markets, the total
deduction over the two or more horses (i.e. one in the original
and one in the reformed market) will be calculated on the prices
applicable in the original market. For bets placed in subsequent
markets deductions over withdrawn horses in these markets will
be calculated on the prices applicable in these markets.
Bets made at starting price are not affected except in cases
where insufficient time arises for a fresh market to be formed,
when the same scale of reductions will apply. In the event of the
withdrawal of one or more runners in circumstances which
would lead to only one runner and therefore a ‘walk-over’, all
bets on the race will be void. The race will be considered a
‘walk-over’ for the purposes of settling bets.
For the purpose of this Rule, the non-appearance of the
number of a declared runner in the number board will be held
to be an official notification of the withdrawal of such a horse
before coming under starter’s orders. In the case of a horse
declared by the starter ‘not to have started’ the racecourse
announcement will be made to that effect. This official
announcement will be made before the race result is displayed.
(D) In the event (i) of an announcement being made that the
provisions of Rule 4 (C) do not apply on the grounds that no
market had been formed at the time of withdrawal of an
overnight declared runner OR (ii) in the event of the number of
an overnight declared runner not appearing in the number board,
all bets (other than ante-post bets) made at a price prior to either
eventuality shall be settled at Starting Price with the exception
of bets struck at nationally advertised or publicly transmitted
prices when Rule 4 (C) will operate, based on the advertised
price or the first transmitted price of the withdrawn horse(s).
(E) In the event of a horse or horses being withdrawn under
Jockey Club Rule 125 (limitations of the number of runners in
a race), all ante-post bets on such horse(s) will be void and the
liability of a layer against any horse(s) remaining in the race,
win or place, will be reduced in accordance with a rate to be
announced before the race by Tattersalls’ Committee, depend-
ent on the odds current against the withdrawn horse(s) at the
time of such official withdrawal.

40
(F) In the event of a reserve horse replacing a declared runner all
bets, other than Ante-Post bets, struck prior to such a replacement
and a new market being formed will be settled at starting price.
5. When the All Right Signal has been hoisted over the Number
Board as provided for in Rule 162 of the Rules of Racing, or
such other Rule being in identical terms which may be substi-
tuted for it, the bets go to the horses as officially announced.
Objection or disqualification after the ‘Weighed In’ announce-
ment has been made, do not change the result of the race for
betting purposes.
6. Bets made on one horse against another or that one horse
beats another, are determined if either of them should win. Bets
made between horses 1, 2, 3, are determined by the offical result.
7. Dead Heats. Where a dead heat is declared, a bet on one of
two horses that dead heat loses half the stake, with full odds
being applied to the remaing half (if a triple dead heat or more,
reduction in proportion).
(A) In the event of a double and the first selection dead-heats,
then the stake is halved and full odds applied. This then
becomes the stake on the second selection. Should the second
selection also dead heat then the stake is again halved.
(B) In the event of any withdrawals, Tattersalls’ Rule 4(C)
reductions will apply to the winnings from the reduced stake.
(C) Un-named favourites finishing joint will be subject to the
same rule as if they dead heated. Where an un-named favourite
both dead heats and is returned joint in the market, then the
stake is halved twice in the proportion of one fourth to the
backer and three fourths to the layer.
8. If odds are laid without mentioning the horse, the bet must
be determined by the state of the odds at the time it was made.
Bets made after a race that a horse will be disqualified, stand,
even if no objection be made.
9. Any bet made from signal or indication when the race has
been determined, will be considered fraudulent and void.
10. Subject to Rule 4(A) accumulative bets are not determined
until the last event has been run.
11. Bets made on horses, jockeys, trainers etc., winning any
number of races within the year, will be understood to mean

41
between the 1st of January and the 31st of December, both
dates inclusive, and to be defined flat or jumps.
12. In the event of a race being ordered to be run over again, or
of a false start or breakaway, starting price bets shall be regu-
lated by the price current at the time of the original ‘off ’, false
start or breakaway. All bets in favour of any horse which started
on the first, but did not go to the post on the second occasion
in the case of a race run over again, or in favour of any horse
not returning to the post (by permission) in the case of a false
start or breakaway are lost, except when such a horse has not
come under starter’s orders .
13. No bet can be declared off except by mutual consent but on
any allegation of fraud or corrupt practice, the Committee may
investigate the case and may declare the bet void. Either of the
bettors may demand stakes to be made on proving to the satis-
faction of the Committee, or any two of them, that he has just
cause for doing so, and, if ordered, the bets must be covered or
sufficient security given within the time specified in such order,
in default whereof the bets will be off.
14. In the case of a photo finish, all bets will be settled as if they
had been made on the result of the race.
15. If any extraordinary occasion should arise, or in cases of
notorious and palpable fraud, or it should come to the notice of
the Committee that the wager or gaming transaction involved
either or both of the parties in an illegal act under the current
legislation in respect of betting and gaming, any of the before
mentioned rules may be suspended by the Committee, and any
of the before mentioned rules may be altered or added to by a
simple majority of the Committee.

Percentage Charts
If somebody flips a coin into the air the chances of it coming
down on either heads or tails are exactly even – or 50–50. In
betting terms an Even money chance.
But if a bookmaker offered Even money heads and even money
tails in such an eventuality he would never make any money
because if he took £5 on heads and £5 on tails he would have to
pay over the money he won to the loser as the profit to the winner.
So, if asked to bet on such a coin flipping contest, the book-
maker might offer 10/11 Heads, 10/11 Tails, thus giving him-
self a percentage edge on the contest – his theoretical winning
profit margin which, at those odds would be just under 5%.
In other words, instead of then paying out a fiver for every
fiver taken, the bookie would stand to make a profit of 25p in
every fiver.
Of course, if the bookie wasn’t clued up he may offer 11/10
against both Heads and Tails, in which case he would be
betting ‘over-broke’ to aproximately 5% and he’d pretty soon be
out of business.
By using this table and calculating to what percentage a
bookmaker is betting on any given event you can deduce for
yourself whether his profit margin is reasonable or greedy – it
may influence your decision as to whether to have a bet.
And occasionally, by comparing odds on the same event
offered by different companies you may discover that you can
bet to a percentage which is profitable to you and puts you in a
no-lose situation – for example, if bookie A is offering 11/10
against Tennis Player A in a Wimbledon match, but bookie B
disagrees with that assessment and is offering 5/4 against
Tennis Player A’s opponent you will be able to calculate from
this table that 11/10 and 5/4 in a two horse race gives a percent-
age of just over 92% instead of the necessary minimum of 100% –
so you would be in a position where you could back BOTH players
and win money regardless of which of them came out on top.
The other use for the Chart is that it will tell you at a glance
how much you need to stake at any given price to receive a
return of £100. (Stake included).

Scale of Weight-for-Age for Flat Races


The scale of weight-for-age is published by authority of the
Stewards of the Jockey Club as a guide to Clerks of Courses in
the framing of races. It is founded on the scale published by
Admiral Rous and revised by him in 1873. It has been modified
in accordance with suggestions from the principal trainers and
practical authorities; it has been further revised since and is now
republished in a new form.
It is expressed as the number of lbs that it is deemed the
average horse in each age group falls short of maturity at differ-
ent dates and distances.
By looking at the allowance a 3yo receives from older horses
over 12F in early July you can see that the amount allowed is
13lbs, so in a weight for age race over that distance at that time
where 4yos would be set to carry 9st 7lbs, the 3yo should carry
8st 8lbs.

Win betting

How to use the singles’ charts


To calculate how much you have to come back from a single
wager, follow these simple instructions: if the bet is, for exam-
ple, 80p win My Mum at 2–5, just find the page headed 2–5 and
look down to 80p in the stakes column. The return will be
£1.12, which includes your original stake.

How to use the doubles’ charts


To calculate how much you have to come back from a win
double, follow this example: £1 win double, My Mum at 2–5 and
Our Kid at 3–1.
Find the page in the doubles’ section headed 2–5, look down
the column to 3–1 and move along to the £1 stakes column.
The return will be £5.60 which includes the stake.

How to calculate trebles and accumulators


Win doubles are calculated by investing the total return from
one selection on to the other. In a similar manner, win trebles
are worked out by taking the return from the first two selections
and investing it on the third, and so on for accumulators. For
example: a £1 win treble on My Mum, 2–5; Our Kid, 3–1; and
Your Nipper, 4–1 is calculated thus:
The total from the first two selections is found by using the
method outlined in the doubles’ section, which gives £5.60, run-
ning on to Your Nipper at 4–1. Turn to the singles charts at the
4–1 page and work out the return for £5.60 by adding the return
for £5 (£25) to that for 60p (£3), which gives a total of £28.
If the bet is longer than a treble, simply continue the above
process for each consecutive selection.

55
Place betting
Singles
It is important to remember that ‘place only’ wagers are not
generally accepted in betting shops at ‘starting price’ (SP) odds.
To have a place bet, you must also have at least the same
amount to win on your selection, and this is known as betting
‘each-way’.
Each-way bets are treated as two separate transactions. Use
the win chart to calculate that part of your bet and add the
returns from the place column to arrive at the total amount due.
If the selection is placed but fails to win, the win portion of the
stake is lost.
If there are less than five runners in a race, no place betting
is allowed and any such stakes go on to win, while, with five, six
or seven runners, place returns are generally calculated as one-
quarter of the win odds, and are payable if your selection
finishes first or second. If there are eight or more runners, this
reduces to one-fifth of the win odds and is paid on the first
three in the race. The exceptions to this rule are: handicap races
of twelve to fifteen runners, where the place returns are one-
quarter of the win odds, payable on the first three; and handi-
cap races of sixteen or more runners, where one-quarter of the
win odds are paid for place bets on the first four.
These are generally accepted place betting rules which apply
to most betting shops, credit offices and internet sites.

Doubles, treble and accumulators


Before calculating each-way doubles and accumulators, it is as
well to check the rules of your bookmaker. Most treat each way
bets as separate win and place wagers when they settle them,
but the odd few divide the returns from the first leg equally
between the win and place going on the next selection.
Here is an example of separate win and place bets in an
each-way double: 10p each-way double, 4–1 and 8–1.
Both win at one-fifth the odds a place.
Win section: 10p at 4–1 gives a return of 50p (including
stake), running on at 8–1, which amounts to a total win return
of £4.50.
Place section: 10p at 4–1, one-fifth of the odds, gives a return

56
of 18p, including stake. This runs on to 8–1, one-fifth of the
odds, making a total place return of 47p.
Add the place total to the win total and you have a final
return of £4.97.
If the above example bet had been placed with a firm which
divided the stake equally for win and place, the money from the
first part of the bet – 10p each-way at 4–1, returning 68p –
would have been divided to make 34p each-way on the next
runner.
For trebles and accumulators, the above basic principles are
simply extended for each consecutive selection.
Multiple bets
A method known as the ‘pyramid block’ is adopted when multi-
ple bets such as a Patent (7 bets), a Yankee (11 bets), a Lucky
15 (15 bets), a Canadian or Super Yankee (26 bets) or a Heinz
(57 bets) are calculated.

Whenever you want to calculate your own multiple results start


with the appropriate simple pyramid drawing.
Example – how to calculate a Heinz
In our example we will use a Heinz bet: 15 doubles, 20 trebles,
15 fourfolds, 6 fivefolds and one sixfold, all to a 10p unit, total
stake £5.70.
We work this out with 6 winners, at evens, 2–1, 5–1, 10–1,
3–1, and 4–1. When you are working out your own put the
winning odds that apply in your case into the columns.
Step one. List the price of the winning selection down the page
and make the six headings shown
odds singles doubles trebles fourfold fivefolds sixfolds
evens
2–1
5–1
10–1
3–1
4–1

59
Step two. Now refer to the Ready Reckoner and calculate a
single at each of the winning prices, entering the answer in the
appropriate position as shown in the block. Remember in our
example we are working to a 10p stake.
odds singles doubles trebles fourfold fivefolds sixfolds
evens 20p
2–1 30p
5–1 60p
10–1 £1.10p
3–1 40p
4–1 50p

Step three. Using the 20p return from the first single, work out
the double with the next price listed (2–1) and place the result-
ing amount (60p) in the doubles column opposite that price as
shown below. Next, take the amount from the first two singles
(20p + 30p = 50p) and calculate the return at the third price
listed (5–1) placing that figure (£3) opposite the price in the
doubles section.
Then take the amount from the sum of the first three singles
(20p + 30p + 60p = £1.10), calculate the return at the next price
down (10–1) and place this sum, which comes to £12.10 into
the doubles section opposite the 10–1 price.
Take the total of the first four singles (20p + 30p + 60p +
£1.10 = £2.20), look up the return at the next price listed (3–1)
and write down the result (£8.80) in the doubles section oppo-
site the 3–1 price.
Add together the return for the first five singles (20p + 30p
+ 60p + £1.10 + 40p = £2.60), calculate with the Reckoner the
return at the next price listed (4–1) and write the result (£13) in
the doubles section opposite the 4–1 price.
So what you have written down will look like this:

60
odds singles doubles trebles fourfold fivefolds sixfolds
evens 20p
2–1 30p 60p
5–1 60p £3.00
10–1 £1.10 £12.10
3–1 40p £8.80
4–1 50p £13.00

Step four. Take the first amount listed in the doubles column
(60p) and calculate the return at the next price listed (5–1) and
put that amount (£3.60) opposite the 5–1 price in the trebles
section.
Now take the amount from the first two doubles figures
(60p + £3 = £3.60), calculate the return at the next price listed
(10–1) and put the return (£39.60) in the trebles section oppo-
site the 10–1 price.
Take the amount from the first three doubles figures (60p +
£3 + £12.10 = £15.70), calculate the return at the next price
listed (3–1) and put that amount (£62.80), in the trebles section
opposite the 3–1 price.
Take the amount from the first four doubles figures (60p +
£3 + £12.10 + £8.80 = £24.50), calculate the return at the next
price listed (4–1) and put that amount (£122.50) in the trebles
section opposite the 4–1 price.
The table will now look like this:
odds singles doubles trebles fourfold fivefolds sixfolds
evens 20p
2–1 30p 60p
5–1 60p £3.00 £3.60
10–1 £1.10 £12.10 £39.60
3–1 40p £8.80 £62.80
4–1 50p £13.00 £122.50

61
At this stage we have enough information to calculate the full
returns for a winning Patent bet (three singles, three doubles,
one treble – total 3 selections, seven bets). Just draw a line after
the third price down. Now add every return above that line
together to get your total returns – e.g. Singles: 20p + 30p + 60p
= £1.10. Doubles: 60p + £3 = £3.60. Treble: £3.60. Add the
three together for a total return of £8.30 on the bet.
A Patent bet from this example so far
singles doubles trebles
evens 20p
2–1 30p 60p
5–1 60p £3.00 £3.60
Totals £1.10 £3.60 £3.60
Total £8.30

Step five. Take the first amount listed in the trebles section –
£3.60, calculate the return at the next price listed (10–1) and
enter the amount £39.60) in the fourfold column, opposite that
price.
Add the first two totals in the trebles section (£3.60 +
£39.60 = £43.20) and calculate the return at the next price listed
(3–1). Insert the total (£172.80) in the fourfold column oppo-
site the 3–1 price.
Add the first three totals in the trebles section (£3.60 +
£39.60 + £62.80 = £106) and calculate the return at the next
price listed (4–1). Insert the total (£530) in the fourfold column
opposite the 4–1 price:
odds singles doubles trebles fourfold fivefolds sixfolds
evens 20p
2–1 30p 60p
5–1 60p £3.00 £3.60
10–1 £1.10 £12.10 £39.60 £39.60
3–1 40p £8.80 £62.80 £172.80
4–1 50p £13.00 £122.50 £530

62
At this stage we have enough information to calculate the
full return for a winning Yankee bet (six doubles, four trebles,
one fourfold = 11 bets) or a winning Lucky 15 bet (four singles,
six doubles, four trebles, one fourfold = 15 bets). Just draw a
line after the fourth price down. Now add every return above
that line together to get your returns for a Lucky 15 –
e.g. Singles: 20p + 30p + 60p + £1.10 = £2.20. Doubles: 60p +
£3 + £12.10 = £15.70. Trebles: £3.60 + £39.60 = £43.20.
Fourfold = £39.60. Add the four together for a total return of
£100.70.
For a straight Yankee, merely omit the returns for singles
(£2.20), giving a total return of £98.50.
A Yankee bet from this example so far
singles doubles treble fourfolds
evens 20p
2–1 30p 60p
5–1 60p £3 £3.60
10–1 £1.10 £12.10 £39.60 £39.60
Totals £2.20 £15.70 £43.20 £39.60

Lucky 15 bet includes the singles totals = £100.70


A straight Yankee excludes the singles totals = £98.50

Step six. Take the first amount listed in the fourfold column,
£39.60 and calculate the return at the next price listed (3–1)
(£158.40). Enter that amount in the fivefold column opposite
that price.
Now add the first two totals in the fourfold column (£39.60
+ £172.80 = £212.40), calculate the return at the next price
listed (4–1) and insert the amount (£1062) in the fivefold
column opposite the 4–1 price:

63
odds singles doubles trebles fourfold fivefolds sixfolds
evens 20p
2–1 30p 60p
5–1 60p £3.00 £3.60
10–1 £1.10 £12.10 £39.60 £39.60
3–1 40p £8.80 £62.80 £172.80 £158.40
4–1 50p £13.00 £122.50 £530 £1062

At this stage we have enough information to calculate the full


returns for a winning Super Yankee, also known as a Canadian,
which consists of ten doubles, ten trebles, five fourfolds, one
fivefold (26 bets).
Just draw a line after the fifth price down. Now add every
return except the singles, above that line to get your total
returns – i.e. Doubles: 60p + £3 + £12.10 + £8.80 = £24.50.
Trebles: £3.60 + £39.60 + £62.80 = £106. Fourfolds: £39.60 +
£172.80 = £212.40. Fivefold: £158.40. Total return = £501.30.
A Canadian (Super Yankee) from this example so far
singles doubles trebles fourfolds fivefolds
evens 20p
2–1 30p 60p
5–1 60p £3 £3.60
10–1 £1.10 £12.10 £39.60 £39.60
3–1 40p £8.80 £62.80 £172.80 £158.40
Totals £24.50 £106 £212.40 £158.40
Total £501.30

Step seven. Take the first amount listed in the fivefold column,
£158.40, and calculate the return at the next price listed, (4–1).
Insert that figure (£792) in the sixfold column opposite that
price:

64
odds singles doubles trebles fourfold fivefolds sixfolds
evens 20p
2–1 30p 60p
5–1 60p £3.00 £3.60
10–1 £1.10 £12.10 £39.60 £39.60
3–1 40p £8.80 £62.80 £172.80 £158.40
4–1 50p £13.00 £122.50 £530 £1062 £792
Totals £37.50 £228.50 £742.40 £1220.40 £792

We can now calculate the total return from a winning Heinz


bet – 15 Doubles, 20 Trebles, 15 Fourfolds, 6 Fivefolds, 1
Sixfold.
Just add the total of each column, except for singles i.e.
Doubles: 60p + £3 + £12.10 + £8.80 + £13 = £37.50. Trebles:
£3.60 + £39.60 + £62.80 + £122.50 = £228.50. Fourfolds:
£39.60 + £172.80 + £530 = £742.40. Fivefolds: £158.40 +
£1062 = £1220.40. Sixfolds = £792. Total return = £3020.80.
The versatility of the Pyramid Block means that if your bet
is not full cover, you can simply take the returns from the
Columns that are included in your bet. For instance, in the
above example, if your bet was 15 Doubles, 20 Trebles and 1
accumulator, you would simply add Columns £37.50 + £228.50
and £792 for a total return of £1058.00. In addition, if the
doubles, trebles and Accumulator were of differing stakes, the
individual column could be adjusted after calculating the bets to
a common unit stake.

How to use a Pocket Calculator
to work out your Bets

It’s easy to calculate your winnings using any basic calculator.


Here’s how.
The following table shows the return to a £1.00 stake for each
individual price, all you have to do is simply multiply the return
as follows and adjust to your unit stake.
For instance, a £3.00 Treble at odds of 7-4, 7-2 and Evens
would be calculated as follows:

2.75 x 4.5 x 2.0 = 24.75 x 3 = 74.25


(7/4) (7/2) (Ev) (return (your (your
for £1) stake) return)

This method can be used for a Single, a Double, a Treble or an


Accumulator with as many selections as you wish.
For the place part of each way bets multiply the ‘Place returns’
in the same way as above. Remember that each way bets are
usually calculated ‘Win to Win’ and ‘Place to Place’.
This method makes it very easy to calculate Accumulators with
several selections and as such is ideal for football. We have
therefore included in this table odds such as 11-5, 12-5 and 13-
5 which are often used on football coupons.
For ease of calculation all odds are expressed to two decimal
places and therefore in some case your winnings will be approx-
imate.
For a quick method of calculating the most popular multiple
bets such as the Lucky 15 and Yankee, simply add £1.00 to the
individual returns for each price listed in the table, multiply out
in the normal way and deduct £1.00 from the answer. This
gives you the return of all possible combinations including
Singles.

166
For instance in the example given earlier the return for a £3.00
Treble is £74.25. If these were your 3 winners in a Lucky 15
with one loser, you would calculate the return as follows:

1. add £1.00 to the table returns for each price.


7-4 becomes 3.75, 7-2 becomes 5.50 and Evens becomes
3.00.
2. multiply 3.75 x 5.50 x 3.00 = 61.87.
3. deduct £1.00 = £60.87 x 3.00 (your stake) = £182.62.
4. this is your return.

This method can be used for any number of winners from 2


upwards provided the bet is full cover. If the above bet was a
Yankee (no Singles) simply deduct the Single returns for each
price as given in the table, e.g. return for £1.00 Lucky 15 60.87
deduct 2.75, 4.50, 2.00 = 51.62 x 3 + £154.86 – your Yankee
return for £3.00.

The following chapters are extracted from the 1953-published How
to Become a Bookmaker by R.W. Wood and give an insight into
the business and how it operated over half a century ago.

On the Course
The Principles of
Racecourse Bookmaking

You no doubt realise that every bookmaker who stands up


on a racecourse or dog track employs a clerk whose duty is to
record all bets and keep the bookmaker posted on his financial
position as the betting proceeds. Needless to say, every book-
maker understands the duties of the clerk and he is quite able
to make all the book entries himself, but while he is busy
‘shouting the odds’, taking the money and issuing betting
tickets he can hardly be expected to do all the necessary book-
keeping into the bargain.
The bookmaker and his clerk work hand in hand. Both
understand each other’s part of the business. So the important
thing for any man to learn, whether he wishes to become a
bookmaker or a clerk, is just how the book is written up.
Beginning with no special knowledge at all, any intelligent man
can learn this in a day or two, but before he becomes really
proficient he will have to do quite a bit of private practice.
In the next few pages I will go through the whole process of
racecourse bookmaking, showing exactly how the book is
written up. Before doing so, however, I would just like to
mention that the same methods are used both on the race-
course and on the dog track. On the dog track there are only
five or six dogs per race while on the course the number may
vary from three to thirty. This does not affect the actual book-
keeping methods, but it makes dog-track work a little easier.
I will deal first with races of few runners, whether they are
horses or dogs makes no difference. Later, I will show how to
tackle bigger fields.
Then I will deal with the general methods of the S.P. book-
maker who, of course, does all his work in an office.
The first thing that the beginner in bookmaking or clerking

170
must learn, and learn thoroughly, is the odds that are in use.
Then he must learn the amounts that are returned, at varying
odds, to any sum of money. These things must become second
nature. Everyone knows the amounts returnable to such simple
odds as 2-1, 3-1, 4-1, etc., but when we come to such odds as
8-13, 10-11, 6-5, and so on, things become a little complicated.
However, the efficient bookmaker and clerk know instantly
what amounts are returnable to any stake at any odds.
The odds in general use are as follows, not including the
simple series just mentioned.

ODDS ON ODDS AGAINST


2-9 8-13 11-10 15-8 11-2
2-7 4-6 6-5 9-4 15-2
30-100 8-11 5-4 5-2 100-9
4-11 4-5 11-8 11-4 100-8
2-5 5-6 6-4 100-30 100-7
4-9 10-11 13-8 7-2 100-6
8-15 Evens 7-4 9-2 Etc.
4-7

The beginner must have these tables off by heart, then he


must remember that the course bookmaker does not deal in
coppers as the S.P. bookmaker does. All betting is to the nearest
sixpence. Thus, 2/- at 15-8 returns 5/6, not 5/8, and so on. All
the book entries are made in shillings, except among the big
bookmakers whose clients habitually bet only in pounds. The
following examples illustrate this point.

10/- at 5-2 is 25/- to 10/-


£1 at 5-2 is 50/- to 20/-
2/- at 6-4 is 3/- to 2/-
£2 at 5-4 is 50/- to 40/-

Note how the actual stake comes after the amount to be


won. When a stake or an amount to be won includes an odd
sixpence this is represented in the entry as a dot.
Thus 2/6 at 3-1 would be booked thus:

7· to 2·

171
The beginner will now realise that he has some homework
to do in mastering the tables and amounts returnable. But he
can take consolation from the fact that when he has mastered
these things his hard study is ended. The rest is the mere
routine of making the actual entries in his book.
So let us assume that we are now on the course or track and
are dealing with an actual event. The book in use by all book-
makers and clerks is ruled off in columns, eight being the usual
number. Each column is sub-divided into five narrow columns.
At the top of each column the name of a runner is written.
Example No. 1 shows part of a typical page ready to receive the
entries.

Example No. 1

Marigold Lady Diana Tudor Rose


5 1 2 3 4 5 1 2 3 4 5 1 2 3 4

In this example I have numbered the columns 5, 1, 2, 3, 4.


This is merely to make further instructions more easy to follow.
In actual practice the numbers are omitted, but all entries are
made in the order indicated. So let us assume that the first bet
comes along and is 60 shillings to 40 on Marigold. Note how
in Example No.2 the 60 goes into column 1 and the 40 into
column 2. The next bet is 10 shillings to four Lady Diana, then
comes another bet for Marigold, 30 shillings to 20, then comes
a bet for Tudor Rose, 45 shillings to 10 shillings. So far we have
used only columns 1 and 2.

Example No.2

Marigold Lady Diana Tudor Rose


60 40 10 4 45 10
30 20

Of course, there will be bets coming in for other runners not


shown in the example. Remember that the example shows only

172
part of the actual book. However, all the bets are entered in
exactly the same way.
Now let us add a few more bets and also bring into use
columns 3 and 4. A bet for 2/6 comes along for Tudor Rose.
Now remember that an odd sixpence is recorded as a dot. Also
remember that the bookmaker pays to the nearest sixpence.
Tudor Rose is at 9 - 2, and the prices of all runners are written
on the bookmaker’s board. They do not appear in the book.
Another point, it is not very often that an each-way bet is made
on the course or track, but the bookmaker might oblige a client
in this way. When an each-way bet is made the clerk brackets
the win and place bets together. So we have a bet of 5/- each-way
for Tudor Rose. These bets are shown in example No.3.
Column number 3 is used for the betting ticket numbers.
These will be called out to the clerk as each bet is made, and
naturally they will be in rotation. It is usual for the clerk to ask
for the number of the first ticket to be issued, and this he writes
on a corner of his sheet. It might be 507, but the clerk ignores.
the 50 when making his entries. He will write simply 7, 8, 9,
10, and so on. If a number is called out of rotation the clerk
should immediately call attention to the fact.
Column 4 is a very important column. It deals with what is
called the “Field Money.” The Field Money is the total amount
taken from backers. As each bet is made the total Field Money
naturally increases. The first bet in our examples was 60
shillings to 40, so 40 goes into column 4. The next bet was 10
shillings to four, so the Field Money is now 44 shillings. This
amount is entered in column 4 in the main column containing
bets for the last named runner (Lady Diana). Next came
another bet for Marigold, 30 shillings to 20, so the Field
Money is now 64 shillings, and this goes into column 4 beside
the actual record of the bet. This is how the Field Money is
recorded as the bets come in.
Now study Example No.3 and you will see the additional
bets, the betting ticket numbers and the Field Money from bet
to bet. There is one further point (not shown) and that is this,
that the old Field Money total is always struck out as the new
one is entered.

173
*507 Example No. 3

Marigold Lady Diana Tudor Rose


60 40 7 40 10 4 8 44 45 10 10 74
30 20 9 64 11 2· 11 76·
22· 5) 12 86·
5· 5)

In the above example note the additional bets, the dots used
for sixpences, the betting tickets numbers and the Field Money
from bet to bet. Also that the *number of the first betting ticket
to be issued is written by the clerk at the corner of his sheet.
The each-way bet is bracketed, one-fourth the odds a place. It
will also be borne in mind that the old Field Money total is
always struck out in actual practice so that the remaining total
always shows the exact amount in stakes.
Now let us look at the 5th column. It will be recalled from
Example No. I that this is actually the 1st column in each
section, but it is always made up last. This column is known as
the “Take Out” column because it shows how much must be
paid out over any particular horse or dog. It is therefore entered
up as the bookmaking proceeds. By way of illustration we will
add the 5th column entries. The first bet was 60 shillings to 40,
so the amount payable at the moment the bet was struck was
100 shillings. This amount is placed in the Take Out column
beside the bet. The next bet was 30 shillings to 20, so another
50 shillings must be added to the 100 shillings, making the
total to pay, should Marigold win, 150 shillings. The amounts
for the other runners are calculated similarly. The amount to
pay over Lady Diana is 14 shillings and the amount for Tudor
Rose is 106/6.
Example No.4 shows the page fully written up as far as we
have gone. Other bets, of course, would be made, and they
would all be dealt with in the way explained. There are several
other points that remain to be dealt with, but before proceed-
ing further the beginner should study Example No.4 and re-
read all instructions to this point.

Additional Matters of
Importance

The previous section fully covers the general principles of bookmak-


ing as carried out on the course or track. But there are several addi-
tional matters that must be understood.

For instance, there might be a sudden flood of bets for one


horse, stakes coming in so fast that it is not possible for even
the best of pencillers to make up all his columns at the speed of
the betting; it might also happen that there is a race with a big
field, more columns being wanted than are printed on the
sheet; it might also be deemed advisable to layoff some of the
Field Money with another bookmaker. These and other
matters will now be dealt with.
A sudden flood of bets might come for one horse or dog
because of a substantial support in the main ring-a case of
money talking so loudly that everyone hears it! On the other
hand the bookmaker might cause such a flood by raising the
price about one runner so as to bring in additional money to
one particular column, thus balancing the book more evenly.
However, these sudden floods must be dealt with efficiently
by the clerk, and he does this by ignoring for the moment
columns 4 and 5. He concentrates on getting the bets recorded,
together with the numbers of the betting tickets. Then when

175
things settle down he totals up the figures for these columns in
bulk and makes the necessary entry at the last bet. He can then
proceed as before.
This procedure is shown in Example No.5 which illustrates
one column, headed by a favourite at even money.

Example No. 5

Mister Moon
40 20 20 1 20
60 10 10 6 100
140 40 40 8 160
10 10 9
20 20 10
30 30 11
20 20 12
320 10 10 13 250

(Total Field Money includes bets from other runners)

It is the business of the clerk to keep the layer informed as


to which runners are winners or losers for the Book. This can
be seen at a glance, for if the last amount in the Take Out
column beside any horse or dog is less than the total Field
Money that runner is known as a winner for the Book. If the
amount in the Take Out column is more than the Field Money,
then the runner is a loser for the Book. If a runner that is a
winner for the Book turns up the bookmaker can payout and
show a profit. Otherwise there is a loss.
It is to avoid such a loss that a bookmaker will often decide
to layoff some of his bets. Note the state of affairs in Example:
No.5. Here there is a total of 250 shillings Field Money, but
320 must be paid out if Mister Moon wins. In such a case the.
layer might decide to layoff 100 shillings, thus decreasing his
potential loss. Mister Moon is a loser for 70/-, the difference
between the Field Money and the total in the Take Out
column.

176
As the “off ” draws near the layer will have to decide whether
to risk Mister Moon winning or whether to layoff some of the
money. If he decides to layoff 100 shillings one, of his runners
will place the bet with another bookmaker – and it may be he
will get 5 - 4 or even 6 - 4. This would naturally be a ‘ stroke
of good business.
However, the clerk must deal with this transaction. Assume
that the runner has got 6 - 4, the clerk enters 150 shillings to
100 in his book in columns 1 and 2, but there is no ticket number.
Furthermore, the clerk marks this bet specially by drawing a
ring right round both figures. Now bear in mind that the book-
maker has laid off 100 shillings, so the clerk deducts this from the
total Field Money; he also deducts 250 shillings from the Take Out
column, for this is the sum that the book-maker will receive
from the other bookmaker if Mister Moon wins. The total
Field Money will now be 150 shillings while the Take Out total
for that runner will be 70 shillings. Thus Mister Moon now
becomes a winner for the Book. If the reader will enter this lay-
off bet into Example No.5 he will see exactly how the transac-
tion works out.
On the greyhound track there are only five or six runners to
deal with, but on the racecourse there are usually more. As I
have already mentioned, each page of the book is divided into
eight columns, so it is obviously impossible to allow one
column per runner when the fields are big. The method gener-
ally employed for fields up to 12 runners is to write the extra
runners about half-way down the sheet at the right-hand side
under the runners that are not likely to be heavily backed.
Thus, at the top of a column there might be a horse at 6 - 1
while lower down in the same column there might be one at
10 - 1. For very large fields both the left-hand and right-hand
pages of the book can be used.
The changes in prices makes no difference at all to the
method of entering bets. A horse or dog might rise or fall in
price, but the method of totalling up the various columns is
always the same.
But now let us consider the last stage in the operation –
paying out. As soon as a race is over and the O.K. is signalled,

177
the successful clients will lose no time in turning up for their
winnings. Each will present his betting ticket and make his
claim. The clerk will check the number and the amount
claimed according to his book. If these are in order he will say,
“Correct,” and the layer will payout. As each client is paid the
clerk will strike out the bet and the layer will tear the winning
ticket in two. The clerk will know when all bets are paid. He
then prepares for the next race.
The man who wishes to make a success of course book-
making but who feels he has quite a bit to learn about racing in
general, could do much worse than begin as a clerk. This inter-
esting occupation will get him right into the swim of race-
course procedure, and he will learn many valuable lessons from
the experienced layer who employs him.
So the first step to success is to practice in private,
working out imaginary races, laying off bets and assuming
now and then that there is a rush of money for one runner.
As a target to be aimed at the beginner should bear in mind
that a good clerk can book about 15 rush bets per minute,
using three columns, and six or seven per minute with all
columns in play.
As progress is made it is a good idea to get a sporting
friend to act as bookmaker, calling out imaginary bets at
varying speeds. During this learning period the aim must be
correctness. It is no use working fast and making errors.
Accuracy is essential. Let the acting bookmaker call out the
bets and ticket numbers while the learner aims at accurate
entries. Speed will come with practice. After a while the
whole process can be worked through at a single go, right
down to paying out.
If the reader has a bookmaker friend he might later ask to be
allowed to take over from the professional clerk at a real
meeting now and then. That would be great practice and valu-
able experience. Furthermore, he could claim to have done
professional work, and this would stand him in good stead
when seeking a permanent job.
Many a promising beginner has made a good start by being
on the track early and approaching the right people.

178
The man who prefers to continue as a clerk will find the
work carefree and fascinating. He can expect to earn 50/- to
£10 per day and all expenses paid. In addition to this many a
good present will be received when “the boss” has had a
winning day.
But let me now step back to our starting point. The hardest
part of learning is getting off by heart the amounts won for
various stakes at various odds. The usual stakes will be 1/-, 2/-,
2/6, 5/-, 10/- and £1. You can learn all you need from a good
ready reckoner. Then it’s a case of practice, practice, practice!
It will be appreciated that the examples I have given contain
only sufficient runners and bets to illustrate the various princi-
ples. In actual practice there would be many more bets and a
greater volume of Field Money. This would result in a well-
balanced book or at any rate give the layer scope for bringing
about a profitable balance.

In a Starting
Price Office
Methods of Off-Course
Bookmaking

No doubt the reader already knows that there are bookmakers


who conduct their entire business from an office. These are
starting-price bookmakers and they settle all bets according to
official starting prices. Many of these bookmakers never visit a
racecourse from one year’s end to another, and I have heard it
said that some of them have never even been on a course at all!
That makes no difference. A man can know racing inside out
who has never seen a racehorse.
The methods of the starting-price bookmaker naturally
differ from those of the outside layer. In fact some of them have
little method at all beyond the keeping of a simple record of
their daily transactions. Bets come in by phone and these must
be recorded so that clients may receive a proper account in time

179
for settling day showing amounts won and lost. The clients who
are winners will receive a statement and a cheque for winnings.
There is a recognised method of recording phone bets,
whether they are put down in a book or written on a dated
office slip. The following examples show most of the bets that
the S. P. Bookmaker will receive.

In the event of an unusual bet being received, providing it IS
accepted, it can be written in full. As the bets come in the clerk
takes up an office slip, dates it, writes the bets on it in the way
shown above and adds the client’s name, thus:

(Slip is completed after results)

Speaking of acceptable bets brings up the question of


whether or not a rule book should be issued. It must be agreed
that few backers trouble with rules unless a dispute arises—but
what kind of rule book can cover every possible contingency?
Certainly not a pamphlet of four pages. A rule book must be
wonderfully comprehensive. The best thing for the average S.
P. bookmaker is a neat little folding card containing only the
principal rules of betting as recognised by everyone, plus any
additional rules that may be deemed useful.
For instance, there is the question of a limit to the amount
that may be won. Few small bookmakers can afford to bet
without limit. The following limits will generally be accepted
as fair:

One horse win bets 60 - 1 Trebles to win 150 - 1


Doubles to win 100 - 1 Accumulators to win 200 - 1

Place bets at one-fourth the above limits.

181
Favourite doubles 25 - 1 Favourite accumulators 60 - 1
Favourite trebles 40 - 1

No place betting on unnamed favourites.

Of course, there will be no limit on races for which there is an


ante-post betting market. It should be a strict practice when-
ever a bet is phoned in for the clerk to repeat the message to
the client, with special emphasis on the total amount of stake
money.
Reverting to the question of book-keeping by S. P. layers,
this need not be a complicated business. A ledger should be
kept with a page for each client, and this must be brought up
to date daily from the office slip when racing results are known.
The ledger account is purely for the bookmaker’s reference and
it need not contain details of the actual horses backed. It should
give the date of each bet, the amount staked, the amount won
by the book or lost by the book. It will be remembered that the
actual details of bets can be looked up on the filed office slips
whenever required.
The following example of a client’s account as it appears in
the ledger will illustrate the method of working. Each account
runs for a week and is ruled off when settled. The words “cash
received” or cheque paid” and the date will close each account.

The efficient bookmaker keeps yet another book, and that is
the weekly analysis book. This must record all income and
expenditure from week to week. There will be amounts
collected from clients, amounts paid out to clients, amounts
drawn by the bookmaker himself, payments for rent, gas, light-
ing, stationery, cleaning, postages, and so on. This book does
not form any part of my subject proper, and the best thing for
the layer to do is to seck advice from a local accountant who
will prepare his final accounts for the Income Tax inspector.
The accountant will set him up with a book, ruled into columns
and give full information on all expenses that can be claimed.
At the end of the financial year the accountant will prepare and
sign the Profit and Loss Account.
I have now given a general account of the procedure that is
common in many S. P. offices, but I want to stress the point
that some bookmakers work on different lines. Some have their
own individual systems of keeping their affairs in order, and so
long as the system is simple and efficient that is all that matters.
But I have overlooked one side of the S. P. business –
because it is not supposed to exist! That is the cash betting side.
Everyone knows that cash bets pour into the offices of S. P.
men. Runners bring in betting slips and cash, clients also call
and make bets, paying over the stake at the same time. As these
words are being written that kind of betting is illegal, but obvi-
ously a change is on the way. When that change comes the
bookmaker will openly run a cash-betting book, and it will be
run on much the same lines as the book described stage by
stage in the first section of this treatise. Betting tickets will be
issued, there will be a Field Money total and a Take Out
column which will only be made up when the course betting
comes through on the tape machine or telephone. The Take
Out column will keep the clerk on his toes in a ready-money
betting shop, for the layer will want to know which horses are
losers for the book in good time for laying off if need be. The
ready-money system is bound to pass through a few growing
pains before it settles down, but it will certainly work out
smoothly all in good time.

184
The Fundamentals
of Bookmaking

It is the aim of the bookmaker at all times to balance his book so that
whichever horse wins he will show a profit. Needless to say, this is
not always possible, but at least it is the ideal to be aimed at.

When there is too much money for a certain horse the wise
bookmaker will lay some of it off with another bookmaker who
may desire more money for that particular horse in order to
balance his own book. For example, it often happens that there
is a strong local tip for a certain horse. All the town is on it and
the price looks like being a big one. If it wins the local bookies
will take a hard knock unless they layoff something with a
book-maker out of town.
However, getting back to the balanced book that must show
a profit, glance at the following figures.

Diamond Girl Evens £160 to £160


Harmony 3-1 £240 “ £80
Apocalypse 4-1 £256 “ £64
March Wind 7-1 £280 “ £40
Clippie 10 - 1 £300 “ £30
Backwood 14 - 1 £308 “ £22
Ocean 14 - 1 £308 “ £22
Silver 20 - 1 £300 “ £15

If the reader will study these figures he will note that the great-
est amount the book will be called on to pay is £330 (incl stake)
over Backwood or Ocean, but the total received from backers is
£433. This is a simple summary of an ideal “over round” book.
It is a principle of bookmaking, especially when it comes to
ante-post betting, that the amount pending on anyone horse
must be less than the total amount taken. Another principle is

185
that the odds laid must always be a little below the true math-
ematical odds. If true mathematical odds were laid there would
be no point in making a book, for the layer would have to
payout exactly the amount received.
Let us examine this business of true mathematical odds a
little more closely. We have eight runners and the true odds are
as below.
Diamond Girl 2-1 £160 to £80
Harmony 5-1 £200 “ £40
Apocalypse 5-1 £200 “ £40
March Wind 11 - 1 £220 “ £20
Clippie 11 - 1 £220 “ £20
Backwood 15 - 1 £225 “ £15
Ocean 15 - 1 £225 “ £15
Silver 23 - 1 £230 “ £10

A study of these figures will show that the book takes £240
while this same sum must also be paid out over any horse. This
is because the odds, being truly mathematical, favour neither
backer or layer. The bookmaker must shorten the odds to make
his business worth while. The previous example shows how this
is done.
As mentioned above, the bookmaker cannot always balance
his book as he would wish. Often he must stand to lose over
one or two horses. It might also happen that some of the horses
will not be backed at all, the bulk of the money going onto the
first and second favourites. In this case the layer would build
his book around the supported animals and shorten the odds
still further, leaving the unbacked horses to run for the book,
thus:

Diamond Girl 4-6 £400 to £600


Harmony Evens £300 “ £300
Apocalypse 2-1 £200 “ £100
March Wind 4-1 £100 “ £25

It will now be seen that the book takes £1,025 and pays out
£1,000 should Diamond Girl win. Obviously it would be better

186
for March Wind to win, and better still for one of the unbacked
horses to trot home.
Many bookmakers do not and cannot work on strictly scien-
tific lines. They are guided by general principles and experi-
ence, but the most successful have a good idea of the
mathematics of betting. They understand that the Least
Common Multiple is the key to balancing the book.
Here is a very simple example. There are four horses at
Evens 1-1, 2-1, 3-1, 5-1. We want the L.C.M. of 2, 3, 4, 6,
which is £12. We must arrange to payout £12 over each horse.
The betting will be as under:

A Evens £6 to £6
B 2-1 £8 “ £4
C 3-1 £9 “ £3
D 5-1 £10 “ £2

The book will take £15 and payout £12. Of course the sums
can be £60 to £60, £80 to £40, and so on. But it is the use of
the L.C.M. that determines the amount pending over each
horse.

187
The Modern
Tic Tac Code

To the average racegoer Tic Tac is an impenetrable mystery. Of


course most people know that the Tic Tac men are making
signals about something to somebody-but what is it all about?
Who started it and when?
Tic Tac had its origin in Australia nearly eighty years ago.
Before the days of Tic Tac bookmakers employed runners
whose job it was to dash from place to place laying off bets and
obtaining information regarding market moves. The runner
system was universal, and it is easy to see that such a system
had serious drawbacks. The runners simply could not keep
abreast of all the important happenings. A system of time-
saving signals was the obvious solution to the problem.
At first the runner system and an elementary form of Tic
Tac worked side by side, but as the Tic Tac system became
more developed the runner system died out. Of course, the first
Tic Tac men were the runners, who began to use signals merely
to save themselves so many journeys.
As it stands to-day the Tic Tac system is complete in every
detail, and the men who use it have by long practice become so
proficient that they can send out the sign messages much faster
than you or I can speak.
Incidentally, there are various systems of Tic Tac, but the
most popular to-day is that known as “Piney’s.” Indeed, this
system seems rapidly to be superseding all others, both on the
greyhound track and the racecourse.
The main use of Tic Tac is as a link between the big book-
makers in the main ring and the lesser lights in the minor rings
and on the popular side. The chief wizard of Tic Tac is the
“Top Man” who perches himself high up on the main stand. He
is in touch with” Floor Men” on the rails and, of course, with
operators all over the course.
Bookmakers in the various rings employ their own operators

188
to receive and transmit the signals as the need arises. Market
moves are the main topic of Tic Tac conversation: for book-
makers all over the course want to know what is happening in
the main ring, how prices are fluctuating, and so on.
Every market move is known all over the course within a
second or two, so speedily do the Tic Tac men do their work.
A lot of professional betting business is handled by the Tic
Tac operators too, for when a layer on the course wishes to avail
himself of the better main ring prices or lay-off money, his Tic
Tac man flashes the business across the course with a few light-
ning passes.
It is speed, speed all the time! and many a clever Tic Tac
man works so fast that he can serve two or three bookmakers
at once. The absolute necessity for high speed will be more
appreciated when it is remembered how rapidly the prices may
fluctuate. A horse quoted at 6 - 4 now may be at 11 - 8 a second
later, and though that may not sound very much it can mean
quite a bit in money when hundreds or even thousands of
pounds are flying about.
Accuracy is also vital. The Tic Tac operator simply dare not
make a mistake. An amusing story is sometimes told of an “arm
swinger” who on a warm day had a swarm of flies buzzing
around his head. He was afraid to drive them away, but
presently one settled on his nose and in a moment of annoy-
ance he brushed it away. Right hand to nose means No.2 and
that number was duly signalled, the signal following the news
of a big bet. No.2 happened to be a rank outsider, so you can
imagine the consternation that was caused.
The reader will no doubt be glad to learn the meaning of the
Tic Tac signals, so I will now explain these according to the
popular” Piney” system. There are signs for numbers and signs
for prices. The numbers refer to the horses in the order they
appear on the racecard, but the Tic Tac card is not the one sold
to the general public. Tic Tac men obtain what is called the
“Twist Card” on which the numbers are differently arranged
for the sake of extra secrecy. This arrangement will be altered
from time to time as a further precaution against the general
public delving into professional secrets.

189
No. 1 is signalled by touching the top of the head with the
tips of the right fingers. For No.2 the right hand touches the
nose. For No.3 the right hand is placed under the chin. These
signs are shown in the following illustration.

1 2 3

No. 4 is shown by a semi—circular movement with the right


forefinger at elbow level. No.5 is indicated by placing the tips
of the right finger on the right shoulder. No. 10 is signalled by
bringing both fists together, knuckles to knuckles, at elbow
level.

4 5 10
There are no separate signs for Nos. 6, 7, 8 and 9. These are
built up from the above basic signs by signalling No.5 and No.
1 for 6, 5 and 2 for 7, 5 and 3 for 8, 5 and 4 for 9. No. 20 is
signalled by repeating the No. 10 sign. Thus any number can be
shown. For example, to indicate No. 16 the Tic Tac man would
give the No. 10 sign followed by the No.5 sign and the No. 1
sign.
Simple odds can all be signalled with these signs, though
there are special signs for fractional odds. Suppose an operator
wished to show that NO.5 on his card was quoted at 7 - 1, he
would place right hand on right shoulder, repeat and place
right hand on nose.

190
11-10 6-5 5-4
Above are shown the first three signs for fractional odds.
Finger tips of both hands touching show 11 - 10, 6 - 5 is given
by spreading the left hand palm downward and bringing the
right hand across it with a “ looping” movement, 5 - 4 is shown
by placing the right hand above the drooped left hand, both
backs outward.

11-8 6-4 7-4

The right hand, back outward, runs up and down the left arm
to show 11 - 8, for 6 - 4 the right hand touches the left ear, and
7 - 4 is shown when the right hand touches’ the left shoulder.

9-4 5-2 11-4

As shown, both hands on the head, finger tips touching,


indicate 9 - 4. The hands are brought to the cheeks for 5 - 2.
For 11 - 4 the “11 - 10” sign is given, followed immediately by
the “5 - 2” sign.

191
100-30 7-2 9-2
The sign for 100 - 30 is made up of the “3” sign followed by
the “11 - 10” sign. For 7 - 2 both hands, spread flat, are placed
below the chin, tips of fingers meeting. Both hands on shoul-
ders show 9 - 2.
There are special signs for 33 - 1, odds-on and 1 - 2 . These
are shown below. Both hands across the chest show 33 - 1. The
fists move round like pedals to indicate odds-on, and the right
fingers touch the crook of the raised left arm for 1 - 2.

1-2 Odds on 33-1

The well-known “V” sign is often used to indicate that a


message has been received clearly. A sign for £50 is both fists
brought together with a striking movement. Both arms
forward and waved across one another is the usual signal for
£100. To indicate a non-runner the backs of both hands are
brought together.
A good Tic Tac man can earn big money, for there are so few
of them about. Personally, I think he deserves all he earns in
view of his long and difficult apprenticeship.
