The Number One Betting Shop was bought out by Sportingbet. Their Australian website is at http://www.sportingbet.com.au

Their main products are a top fluc service (for which they don't charge) and what they call Best Odds. Basically if you nominate best odds, you get SP or Tote, whichever is the higher price when they jump. You have to nominate which state's TAB you want to use in comparison to the SP. If you don't nominate, then you get VIC Supertab.

The drawback with their top fluc service is that you have to place your bets before noon. I believe Cleary offers top fluc up to 30 minutes before race time.

Boodu, as far as I know, there's no way of setting a fixed TAB price with a bookmaker. If you place a bet with a bookie and you nominate TAB odds, then you get the TAB official dividend, not the price the horse was when you placed the bet. I guess that's the advantage of fixed price betting.

Betting on the TAB is like a box of chocolates (to coin a phrase). You never know what you're going to get.
