2 separate bets..........youve got to decide if both are value
|
|
By:
depends if it's placed or not

Not necessarliy so Cardiff.
In a filthy e/w race the win part is usually poor value but the place part can offer terrific value that outweighs the poor value of the win part. |

Sixteen runner handicaps with 1/4 the odds 1st 4 can be a good bet.
|
|
By:
Muqbil,
I agree with you there. Place terms for 16 runner handicaps should never exceed 1/5 odds mathematically (on a 100% book). If all runners were theoretically 15/1 each and the place terms 15/4 then the bookmaker would take in 16 units and pay out 19. The shorter the favourite goes the more out of line the payouts get in favour of the punters. |

if the circumstances favour it why not bookies hate successful each way punters

Its a good bet on here beacuse you can alter the percentage on the win and place type imo

Backing e/w is a waste of money. You are betting on the assumption the horse wont win.
Consider a 10/1 chance. Your stake is £50 - you bet it to win, it loses and you're down £50. Sametotal stake (but e/w) = £50, it loses ,you're down £50. If it wins( win only) your profit is £500. Backing e/w(assume 1/5th odds) your profit is £300 If it places - you profit £25 for your £50 ( i.e a 1/2 shot) For those who keep a record of all your bets. Odds are,that a single win only bet(at your stake), will make more profit over the long run, than will an each way bets ( halving the stake) |

If the favs 1/5 on & second best is the 10/1 shot in a 8/9 runner field you would have to be a sandwich short of a picnic NOT TO BACK THE 10/1 SHOT E/WAY.

bookies would rather not offer the public the single bet imo they like accumalators

a) the odds you describe for 2nd fav - not likely b) if you're betting in these type of races - i'd give up c) very often what looks obvious - will lose you money imo ! |

So my trainer has a win % of 5% and a place % of 40%. He runs around 40 horses per year(very typical)
I place 40 * £50 win per race @ 10's = 2 winners (1000 profit), 38 losers (1900 loss) Total - 900 loss I Place £25 * £25 EW per race @ 10's = 16 winners (1000 profit), 24 losers (1200 loss) Total - 200 loss Dont matter how you look at it percentages and price is everything. FACT |

By:
Facts its clear from your post you do not know how to play that type of market. Fact.

By:
Lol geoff m I wouldn't play that market, thats how many punters see it. My point is you cant say its better or worse without stats.
I'd rather do a short priced each way double ;-) |
