Default Calculation Required

Help required in understanding the effect a large wager has on the TAB price. I need a rough calculation prior to placing the wager. I realise that the size of the pool and the frequency of wagers prior to jump time will all have an effect but I just want to know what effect 'my bet' has on the pool and ultimately the dividend.

e.g. Win pool of $36,000 - $1,000 laid on at 4:1 - change in price ???
Win pool of $100,000 - $1,500 laid on at 5:1 - change in price ???

Is it even possible to calculate? I have tried unsuccessfully watching the win pool and prices but it is all happening too fast.

I would appreciate anyones input.

Regards

Zlotti
