Default Watch your bonus bets

Done it again, got some bonus bets this week decided to have a go at a few outsiders, one of which SR7-2 ran 3rd, now I'd had $10 EW using bonus bets, in other words $10 for the win @$21 and $10 the place @ $4.90 (both fixed)

It ran 3rd so you expect $39 right? ......... wrong I got $29, why because they also deducted the losing $10 win bet WHAT?

Now if I had put $10 for the win and $10 for the place (separate bets) instead of ticking EW I would have got $39.

As $10 EW is the same bet as $10 win &$10 place, this has to be an example of insanity.

You have to read the fine print party, yes you would have been better off with a $20 place bet. Win draw or lose the bonus, the FULL amount is deducted lost for ever, I'm surprised they let you break it up into win and place, usually it has to be a single bet.
At least you got something out of it I usually blow it.

My point is they deducted the $10 for the win bet TWICE, i.e. the $10 I put on so it lost OK fair enough, but then deducted it again from the winnings from the place bet, that has to be criminal.

Sorry I misunderstood, I thought you had two bets and I said I was surprised they allowed it, you usually can't brake it up into a place and win bet, it has to be one bet win, place or each way, so the deduction was correct.
Painful but correct.

Hi Party

You've outlaid $20 and received $49......$29 profit.

Blackdog1, Mark, yes I know it's correct "to their rules" as you know I got caught once b4, and just forgot. if I'd had $10 win and $10 place 2 separate bets, (exactly the same as $10 EW) my outlay would also have been $20 but my return would be $39 not $29 can you see that? it's to do with perception.
