I backed Scotty to finish Top 5, which he did. $20 @ $3.50 should have returned $70, but Tatts has only paid me $35. Any ideas before I rip into them?

Wasn't there a tie for 5th? Like a deadheat in racing, you get 1/2 value. So your $3.50 turned into $1.75.

This.

[Captain Nemo]

That......

[PeteyD]

Yea I had same issue. At least some $$ back, rest of the hopeless gumbies ran middle of the field ...

[AndyP]

That sucks, because the odds of him finishing top 6 would have been higher than $1.75.

Ah, so it was. I got confused by the tie for 2nd when doing the math in the early morning fog. I hadn't had a deduction for a tie in Golf before.

True Andy, but that is the way tie rules work unfortunately, otherwise it would mean a deduction for all winners.

[Captain Nemo]

FWIW, i had Sergio e/w at big odds
Sportingbet paid out e/w 1-7 and i only got a little back over my investment.....

[talbo]

I got back SFA

[LeftyHoges]

The Punters Club did alright out of it.

[Captain Nemo]

Well **** me!
Had $50 manly 1-12, first Monday night footy bet I think I've landed all year....
Just need Johnny Rollins to win The Voice tonight and I'll be a happy camper....!

You bet on "the voice"? crikeys, they have markets for everything these days.

What are the odds of Kyle Sandilands getting fatter?

I am just surprised he backed talent rather than the Blonde with the big personalities.
