Yes?

I don't understand where the amount of money you win comes from. If someone is 13 to lay, to make a profit of £10, you have to bet £130?

If a horse /person is 13/1 to win an event / race.

You have to be willing to risk £130 in the case that it wins..... if it loses however you recieve the backers stake of £10 so therefore by laying you have become the bookmaker.

In the previous example on man utd been 1.45 the backer (not you) are backing a 1/2 on shot (roughly) and therefore they would only make £4.50 profit from a £10 stake and therefore thats what you would lose if man utd won the game.

However if they drew or lost you'd recieve the backers £10 stake.

Any help....

By laying your in effect becoming a bookmaker ... kind of

i am on saints +4 for a nice bet rolling on from last night...

It has to have become a mental thing for Warrington. On paper they had the better 17 on duty (Saints certainly missing some key players), they were at home and they probably created twice as many scoring opportunities in the 80 minutes. For example, they bossed all the opening exchanges but let Saints out of their half twice and found themselves 12-0 down. Not taking anything away from an understrength Saints but I can't help feeling that Warrington lost that game rather than Saints winning it.

Huddersfield -12 is imo an absolute stonking bet..........

Get stuck in, I can back against my own side, as im sure our players are backing against us also given their performances of late

Deauville 14.40 Music Show 9/2

Chester 15.30 Doncaster Rover @ 7/2

Ran well in Group races this year and goes on good to soft


Galway 16.25 Dance On By @ 4/1
