most of the time they are pretty close on the win end but i could never get used to your place payouts. we have seperate pools for 2nd placing and third placing. your place pays are pretty close to our show payout. you can see below the big difference in 2nd placing payouts compared to aussie place payouts.

u.s. payouts are to the $2.

there are alot of people up hear that are clueless capping australia so i get my share of big payouts. i also compare pre race odds off TAB nd compare it to whats being played or not being played in the u.s.

You know Phar

When i first played with Betfair i used to muck around with US racing in the morning. I watched it live via an internet site which is on the tip of my tongue >> perahps espnracing.com or links off that site. I would always notice the place and show on the tote prices paying more then $2. I understand the show and place etc etc difference but never really ventured into why it was always better then evens. For a few days it did cross my mind that it runs on $2. Now i know!
Can you bet for only 1st and 2nd on that site? or is it just top 3 unlike US racing
