That can't be right. So if I bet $5 on win, $5 on show, and $5 on place on a horse with 10-1 odds, and he came in third, there is no way I win $113...



No, you ran third. He paid $7.60 to show. So you get that 2.5 times. Please refrain from telling me how gambling on horses operates as I have been doing it my entire life. I grew up in the business.

Please refrain from doing a shitty job explaining. You made it sound like he won over a hundred bucks.

Dude, settle down..I'm not doubting what you are telling me, just doubting that I was interpreting it correctly.
