ha ha good on ya Fester, reminds me, many years ago in England the bookies wrote a slip out as you recited your bet or copied it if you wrote it down, a few times I put on muliple bets (i.e. doubles trebles etc) and included a horse that had already won (just) I did get away with it a couple of times. naughty arn't I?

Another time a had a VERY hefty fixed price bet on the 2nd fav in a 3 horse race (quite common in England) and a saver on the rank outsider, the 2nd fav was gambled on and became a short priced fav, the original fav. blew out,
it suddenly dawned on me that I could now back the original fav as well and still make a decent profit no matter what won, I did just that and listened to the race with a very big smirk on my face, at last I knew how a bookie feels!
