Thanks for you input gaz... I understand what SuperPrice is .... I was just wondering if any one in the internet world had been running a comparison between it and the TAB's to see how much better off you are by using IAS SuperPrice

Cheers

I agree with you Bottleboy. It would be great to have one web site where you could line up all the various tab, IAS prices etc to easily monitor price movements. I doubt whether such a site exists due to copyright laws etc.


Meanwhile, we will have to continue flicking between screens to monitor the price action.

Gazman.while it is true that IAS offers better prices, their web site often freezes up during heavy betting periods and they close off betting sometimes 30 seconds plus before the TAB sites do. Being a price movement follower, If I am going to make a last second decision to bet on a particular horse, I usually have that bet on one of the TAB sites....even if the price I get is inferior to IAS.

In the results archive section of ozeform they have IAS and the 3 tab results.

I have the IAS screen up all day whilst betting. Their market is generally about 107-110%.

What they guarantee is that if their div doesn't at least beat 2 of the totes, they will pay better.

I cannot guarantee their formula for working out their divs, but it seems to me that it is pretty close to just the average of the 3 totes...

What is surprising to me is that, nobody knows how they work out their final divs so it is not predictable. All you know is it will be better than the 2nd best tote. Sometimes you will be pleasantly surprised and their payout is considerably higher than all 3 totes.

What ever happened to NSW and SuperTab joining up? That would surely put a spanner in their works. Then they would effectively be paying best tote..

Basically you keep about 7-8% more of your money than betting on the tote....

I think they initially use to guarentee 2% more than the NSW tote, so would probably go back to something like that if the pools joined up.

As a professional greyhound place punter i love it as my bets dont kill the pools as they would on STAB, however currently this year betting on STAB, IAS and the NSW tote, i have actually returned a better profit on STAB, followed by IAS then NSW. I think its because of the unpredictibility of the place odds in greyhounds and regularly i get returns of $3 win and $2 a place on 1 tote, but the other 2 pay a lot less the place. The best advantage for me with IAS is large sized bets not affecting the pools.

Remember, they shut their markets at least 1 minute before race time...

I would actually put money on the idea that this would give them ample time to balance books and offload onto the 3 totes, especially for win bets...

You are right about the dogs for the place though... My preference is the odds on dogs for a place.. Alot of people won't touch them for a place and look elsewhere meaning value for those that back them. Often see a dog pay $1.60 w $1.60 p...
