    Had €40 on a horse yesterday @ 3/1 , and it finished dead heat .

    Not only did the bookie pay me half the odds , but he also kept €20 of my €40 stake .

    Got back €80 - is this correct ?

    Yes that's correct.
    rule is you divide stake in half and pay at the full odds, so your bet is 20 @ 3/1

    =80

    D/H = 1/2 win, 1/2 loss so it's 1/2 stake at full odds with the other half stake a loser.
