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.

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.

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.

No mate, I think you're confused.
If you'd had 2 separate bets, they would be.... 10 win, which lost, and 10 place to return $49. So first bet loses $10 and second bet wins $39.......which is $29 profit. If you had the same, say on the tote, with the same result, what would your profit be? It's still $29.

I'm no expert by any means but I make it what PP is saying.
He had a $20 Each Way bet made up of the following: $10 win bet = Loss $10 place bet @ $4.90 = Win $49 ($39 of their money and $10 of your bonus money). So $49 less the losing $10 win bet = $39. I suppose the fine print says they take their $20 bonus bet back if you win anything bringing it down from $49 to $29. Anyway, frees free.
