    did a lucky 15 based on wb's selection today

    got just 3.95 back even though 2 horses won and 2 were placed..?:confused::confused:

    >>>

    actually I think its bet365, snidey crowd dont pay back the initial outlay on freebies

    did a tenner on a draw last night for a game @ 3.00 and won, got back 20e.

    Am I correct, maybe not..?

    your total stake was €10.35, you didn't bet e/w so €3.95 is correct.

    can't answer you there, except just to say always double check your bets.

    I've never seen a bookies to pay back a free bet. They couldn't or we'd all punt the 1/5 odds on shot. Except for betfair credit.



    I can't make out the slip very well, what were the odds on each horse?

    with just 3 euro profit seems a bit mad, especially considering the results of the races

    the odds are on the list...

    The parts I have bolded are the odds, I originally thought they were the race times.
    Doing an each way bet on odds that short is not going to return much.
    When it is ¼ odds for E/W, odds of less than 4/1 (5.0 deci) will return less than the total stake.


    sorry, If i've read it wrong
