DAILY DOUBLE HORSE RACING BET

The daily double involves picking the winning horse in two consecutive races in the same track. All tracks offer the early daily double which involves races #1 and #2. Most tracks also offer a late daily double which is the last two races of the day. Some tracks also offer a rolling daily double which is on any two consecutive races. To win a daily double you must pick the winning horse in each of the two races. Combination bets can also be made on daily doubles.

DOUBLE WHEEL

When you are confident of a horse winning either of these two races but are uncertain of the outcome of the other race, especially if the horse in which you are confident has good to excellent odds, you might want to consider the daily double wheel. In this bet you bet your key horse with all the horses in the other race. Your key horse might be in either of the two races. Tell the clerk EX. : "In Santa Anita, race 1, give me a $2 Daily Double wheel the 5 with ALL"; if you are confident in the #5 horse winning the first of the two races. But if your key horse is the #3 in the second of the two races tell the clerk i.e. "$2 Daily Double wheel ALL with 3". The formula for calculating the cost of the daily double wheel is simply the number of horses in the first leg times the number of horses on the second leg, times the dollar value of your bet.

Example: The race other than the race containing your key horse has 10 horses and you wish to make a $2 bet. (2 x 1 x 10 = $20)

DAILY DOUBLE PART-WHEEL

The daily double part-wheel bet is a further refinement of the daily double wheel bet. This allows you to exercise your handicapping skills to eliminate all horses that you think will not win the race. This will reduce the size of your investment.

Example:
As in the example in the daily double wheel above you have a key horse in one race and 10 horses in the other race. But you have decided that only five of the 10 horses have a chance of winning their race. So, by doing a daily double part wheel, you have one horse in combination with five horses and if you wish to bet a $2 bet your cost would be (2 x 5 = $10). You just saved yourself $10 over the full wheel bet and hopefully you did not throw out the winning horse. If for example, you decided that the #5 horse will win the first race of the double and that either horses #2, #4, #5, #8 or #9 will win the second race of the double you would tell the clerk i.e. ($2 Daily Double Part Wheel 5 with 2, 4, 5, 8, 9). NOTE: A $10 daily double part wheel (5 with 2,4,5,8,9) would cost (10 x 5 = $50).

EXACTA HORSE RACE BETTING

With this bet you must pick the first two finishing horses in the exact order of their finish. In other words, you must pick the horse that wins and the horse that finishes second.

EXACTA BOX

A "box" on two or more horses in a race means taking all the possible combinations of those horses in each place of finish. If you have determined that two horses are the best in the race but you are not sure which one will win and which one will finish second, then the safest bet is to do the exacta box. You can box more than two horses, but it is very important to remember that with each additional horse you add to the box the cost of the wager goes up substantially. The formula for calculating the cost of an exacta box is (horses in box) x (horses in box minus 1) x (dollar amount of bet). A $2 box of two horses would be (2 x 1 x 2) = $4. A $2 box of three horses would be (3 x 2 x 2) = $12. A $2 box of four horses would be (4 x 3 x 2) = $24. As you can see the cost of the exacta box increases greatly with each additional horse. Also remember that you can wager a $1 exacta box. This reduces the amount of your wager by 50% but also reduces your earnings by 50%.

EXACTA WHEELS

If you are confident in a horse winning a race, but may have several choices as to the second place finisher, you may elect to do an exacta wheel. If for example, you think the #4 horse is going to win and either the #2, #5, #7, or #10 horse will finish second, you could place the following wager: ($2 exacta wheel the 4 WITH the 2, 5, 7, 10). Following the same formula for calculating the cost of the exacta wager as above we have (1 x 4 x 2) = $8. So it will cost you $8 to do an exacta wheel with one horse to win and any one of four horses to finish second.

Another point to note is that some horses do not like to win. They allow other horses to pass them without making an extra effort to win the race. This can easily be determined by simply looking at their past performances. If for example, their racing record indicates that they have won one race and have finished second six times, you may want to place multiple horses in the win column and this "seconditis" horse in the place column. The previous wager might be ($2 Exacta Wheel the 2, 5, 7, 10 WITH the 4).

Pick 3

In order to win a Pick 3 bet you are required to select the winning horse in three consecutive races. Most tracks only offer one or two pick 3 opportunities per day. Some tracks offer a rolling pick 3 in which every race is part of a pick 3 bet, which means that some races are included in three pick 3 bets. The third race for example, would be the third race of the first pick 3, the second race of the second pick 3, and the first race of the third pick 3. I don't mean to make this seem complicated, it is really very simple. The simplest pick 3 bet is the $2 straight pick 3. If for example, you picked the #2 horse to win the first race, the #4 horse to win the second race, and the #6 horse to win the third race, you would tell the clerk: “In the first race give me a $2 pick 3 - 2, 4, 6".

PICK 3 PART WHEEL

The pick 3 part wheel bet is one of my favorite plays at the track. It allows you to single your favorite horses in some races and combining them with several good paying horses in other races in an attempt to hit a good paying win ticket. There is generally good value in the pick 3 bet, and frequently they will pay considerably more than the comparable amount of money bet in a 3 race parlay.

To increase the probability of winning a pick 3 you may want to play multiple combinations by selecting more than one horse in one or more of the three races. The easiest way to communicate this bet to the clerk is to use the pick 3 part wheel bet. If you think the #3 horse will win the first race of the pick 3 and either the (#1, #5 or #7) horse will win the second race, and the (#2, #5, #8, #10, or #12) horse will win the third race, you would tell the clerk: “In the Nth race give me a $2 Pick 3 Part Wheel 3 with 1, 5, 7 with 2, 5, 8, 10, 12". The cost of this bet would be (1 x 3 x 5 x $2) = $30; for your $2 bet. You can bet any amount from $1 and up. Remember, that if you bet a $1 bet, you only collect 1/2 of the payoff amount since most bets are quoted for a $2 bet.

Pick4

This wager is very similar to the Pick 3, but the player must pick the winners of four consecutive races from a given track. In this type of wager the client will say the race that states the first leg of the Pick 4 and then the horses he wants on each leg separated by the word WITH. If you think that horses either #1, #5 and #7 will win the first leg of the Pick 4, let's say it starts in the race #N, and the next race will be won by horse #5 or #8, and in next race after this the winner will be horse #6,#9, #10 or #11 and the following race will be won by horse #1 or #2, the usual way to communicate this bet to the clerk is something like: “ I want a $1 Pick 4, Nth race: 1,5,7 with 5,8 with 6, 9 , 10 ,11 with 1 and 2”. The cost of this bet is the amount of horses chosen in each race multiplied by each other and then multiplied by the dollar amount of your bet. In this case: (3 x 2 x 4 x 2 x $1) = $48. You can bet any amount from $1 and up.

Quinella

In the Quinella, you must pick the horses that finish first and second. Either one can be first and the other one second. This bet functions exactly the same as the "Exacta Box". Although the Quinella has the same function as the "Exacta Box" the payoff can vary substantially. You must remember that there is no such wager of an exacta box, it is really two separate bets on one ticket. The Quinella wagers are entered into their own pool separate from the exacta pool. Not all tracks offer the Quinella wager, but to the best of my knowledge all tracks accept the term exacta box where ever the exacta wager is offered. If both the Quinella and Exacta wagers are offered it is wise to check the tote board before making a Quinella or Exacta Box wager to see which one offers the greater payoff.

Straight

WIN
A "WIN" bet is just what it sounds like: betting that the horse you pick will win the race. You win if the horse wins.

PLACE
For a horse to "PLACE" it must finish the race either first or second. This bet generally pays less than the win bet but it gives you two chances to win instead of just one.

SHOW
For a horse to "SHOW" it must finish the race either first, second or third. This bet generally pays less than either the win or place bet, but it gives you three chances to get a return for your investment.

ACROSS THE BOARD

This is a quick way to say that I want to bet a horse to finish in any of the first three positions. ($2 Across The Board = $2 to win, $2 to place, and $2 to show). If the horse wins you collect all three bets. If the horse finishes 2nd then you collect the place and show bets. If the horse finishes 3rd then you will only collect the show bet.

Superfecta

With this bet you must pick the first four finishing horses in the order of their finish on a given race. In other words, you must pick the horse that wins, the horse that finishes second, the horse that finishes third and the horse that finishes fourth on a particular race. The simplest form of this wager is the Straight Superfecta, which is a single combination of the first four finishers. The minimum bet for a Straight Superfecta is $2. To purchase, simply tell the clerk: "$2 Superfecta on 1-2-3-4." A Superfecta is not offered in all races at all tracks (refer to program).

SUPERFECTA BOX

The Superfecta Box has a $1 minimum bet per combination -- $24 minimum total cost. You can box four or more horses on a single ticket and wager $1 (or more) on each combination.

Example:
To purchase a $1 Superfecta Box using four horses, tell the clerk: "$1 Superfecta Box 11-2-3-4."

The following examples are for a $1 Superfecta Box:

4 horse box ( 24 combinations) Cost $ 24
5 horse box (120 combinations) Cost $120
6 horse box (460 combinations) Cost $460
7 horse box (840 combinations) Cost $840

SUPERFECTA KEY

The Key Wager requires the key horse to finish FIRST with any combination of three or more horses finishing second, third and fourth. For example, if your key horse is #5 and your other horses are number's 2, 4, 6 and 8, you will win if #5 finishes FIRST and three of your other four horses finish second, third and fourth.

Example: To make the bet, tell the clerk: "$1 Superfecta Key No. 5 on top of 2, 4, 6 and 8," and the ticket will cost $24. If five horses were coupled with the Key horse, the cost would have been $60, etc. Superfecta Full Wheel You may select one or more horses to finish in any given position and combine these selections with all possible entries in the other positions. The number of combinations will vary according to the total number of horses in the race.

Example: If you pick horse #6 to finish FIRST in a 12 horse field and want to have $1 Full Wheel, tell the clerk: "$1 Superfecta 6-All-All-All." The total cost of the ticket is $990. This is another situation where even if you win, it is likely that you will still lose money.

SUPERFECTA PART WHEEL

The Superfecta Part Wheel is offered at a $1 minimum bet per combination -- $2 minimum total cost. It is now possible to make a Superfecta wager coupling one or more horses to finish 1st, 2nd, 3rd and 4th.

Example: You want the (#4 and #7 in the win position), the ( #1, #4, and #7 in place position), the (#1, #2, #4, #7 and #9 in the show position) and the (#1, #2 #4, #7, #9 and #11 in the fourth position). To bet a $1 on Superfecta on the above example, tell the clerk: "$1 Superfecta Part Wheel (4 7) with (1, 4, 7) with (1, 2, 7, 9) with (1, 2, 7, 9, 11)." There are 36 possible combinations in the bet for a cost of $36. To win, the (4 or 7) must finish FIRST, the (1, 4 or 7) must finish second, the (1, 2, 4, or 7) must finish third, and the (1, 2, 4, 9, or 11) must finish fourth. Here you can also omit the words Part Wheel and the clerk will perfectly understand the play. As you can quickly see, the cost of the part wheel can be much less than the cost of the full wheel, but it requires you to be more selective and do a better job handicapping.

TRIFECTA

With this bet you must pick the first three finishing horses in the order of their finish. In other words, you must pick the horse that wins, the horse that finishes second and the horse that finishes third.

The simplest form of this wager is the Straight Trifecta, which is a single combination of the first three finishers in the exact order of finish. To purchase, simply tell the clerk something like: "give me a $2 Trifecta on 1-2-3." A Trifecta is not offered in all races at all tracks (refer to program).

NOTE: This wager is also called the "Triple" at some tracks.

TRIFECTA BOX

The trifecta box has a $1 minimum bet per combination -- $6 minimum total cost. You can box three or more horses on a single ticket and wager $1 (or more) on each combination.

Example: To purchase a $1 Trifecta Box using four horses, tell the clerk: "$1 Trifecta Box 11-2-3-4."

The following examples are for a $1 Trifecta Box:

3 horse box ( 6 combinations) Cost $ 6
4 horse box ( 24 combinations) Cost $ 24
5 horse box ( 60 combinations) Cost $ 60
6 horse box (120 combinations) Cost $120
7 horse box (210 combinations) Cost $210



You must notice the more combinations you play the more chances you have to win, but the winnings will be less…because the total amount risked will be deducted off the winning amount.

TRIFECTA KEY

The Key Wager requires the Key horse to finish FIRST with any combination of two or more horses finishing second and third. For example, if your key horse is #5 and your other horses are #'s 2, 4 and 6, you will win if #5 finishes first and two of your other three horses finish second and third. Example: To make the bet, tell the clerk: "$1 Trifecta Key #5 on top of 1, 2 and 3," and the ticket will cost $6. If four horses were coupled with the Key horse, the cost would have been $12, etc.

Trifecta Full Wheel

You may select one or two horses to finish in a given position and combine your selection with all possible combinations. The number of combinations will vary according to the total number of horses in the race.

Example # 1:
If you pick #6 to finish first in a 12-horse field and want to have $1 per combination, tell the clerk: "$1 Trifecta 6-All-All." The total cost of the ticket is $110.

TRIFECTA PART WHEEL

The trifecta part wheel is offered at a $1 minimum bet per combination -- $2 minimum total cost. It is now possible to make a Trifecta wager coupling one or more horses to finish 1st, 2nd and 3rd.

Example:
You want #4 and #7 in the win position, #1, #9, and #11 in place position, and #2 and #5 in the show position to bet $1 on each combination, tell the clerk: "$1 Trifecta Part Wheel 4 and 7 with 1, 9, 11 with 2, 5." There are 12 possible combinations in the bet for a cost of $12. To win, the 4 or 7 must finish first, the 1, 9 or 11 must finish second and the 2 or 5 must finish third. You can also omit the words Part Wheel and the clerk will perfectly understand the play.

Others

Perfecta or Exacta: (Straight Forecast, UK) The Perfecta is similar to the Quiniella, except the two horses must finish in the exact order. To bet you say "$3 Perfecta, 5-6". Only if the horses finish 5-6 you win.

Perfecta Box:
As with the quiniella box, except the two horses must finish in the exact order. To bet you say "$2 perfecta box on 4,5 and 6". You are making six separate bets so your minimum bet is $12. If they finish 4-5, 4-6, 6-4, 6-5, 5-4 or 5-6 you win. With Perfecta Box, for each extra horse you add to the box the possible combinations get compounded and your number of bets increases accordingly. A "$2 perfecta box on 4 horses" will cost you $24 (12 bets), a "$2 perfecta box on 5 horses" $40 (20 bets), and a "$2 perfecta box on 6 horses " $60 (30 bets).

Straight Trifecta:
(Tricast or Treble Forecast, UK) Pick the first three horses to cross the finish line in exact order. To bet you say "$2 trifecta numbers 7,4 and 5". Only if they finish 7-4-5 you win.

$1 Trifecta Box:
Pick three horses to finish first, second and third, in any order. To bet you say "$1 trifecta box 2,3 and 5". You are actually making six $1 bets, so your total bet is $6. If they finish 2-3-5, 2-5-3, 3-2-5, 3-5-2, 5-2-3 or 5-3-2; you win.

$1 Trifecta Key:
Pick your favorite horse to win, then two or more others to place and show in any order. To bet you say "$1 trifecta key on 1 with 2 and 3". You are actually making two $1 bets so your total bet is $2. To win your Key horse must win and the other two must finish either 1-2-3 or 1-3-2.

Superfecta:
The straight superfecta is played by picking the first four horses to finish in exact order. To bet you say "$2 straight superfecta 1-3-2-8". You would collect if the race finishes exactly 1-3-2-8.

You can Box, Key or Wheel most of the above bets.

Note: Different countries and different race tracks may have different rules, use different terms for how to bet and also for the types of bets. If unsure, ask the betphoenix.ag Member Services staff when placing a bet.

Straight Bets

Straight bets are made when you choose a team and the point spread. The cost of the bet is 10/11 or $110 to win $100.

Example:
Toronto Raptors +6
Chicago Bulls -6

If the straight bet is on the Bulls -6 then the Bulls must win by more than 6 points for the bet to win.
If the straight bet is on the Raptors +6 then the Raptors cannot lose by more than 5 points for the bet to win.
If the game lands on 6 pts. then your bet is a 'push' and will result in 'no action'. i.e: Final Score: Rap 90 and Bulls 96

Moneylines

Football and Basketball betting you are given the option to bet a point spread or a moneyline bet. With money lines you wager which team is going to win. Disregarding the point spread.

EXAMPLE:
Orlando Magic -280
Houston Rockets +240

If you wager on Orlando -280 you lay $280 to win $100.
If you wager on Houston +240 you lay $100 to win $240.
The line values are determined base on the point spread. When betting moneylines you are betting on a team to win the game outright.

Parlays

Two or more teams or totals can be combined to make one wager. Circled games cannot be parlayed. Proposition plays, and future bets cannot be parlayed.

You may estimate Parlay Payoffs by following steps (example provided):
Let's say you play the Pirates +150 and the Pirate game over 8 -120 in a two team parlay and you bet $100. Use the following steps to determine your winnings.
Calculate Parlay Factor for each piece: if the price of the piece is positive - simply add one to get factor, if the price of the piece is negative v calculate reciprocal, multiply by -1, and then add one.

1.50 + 1 = 2.50
-1.20 (take reciprocal or divide one by the negative price) 1/1.20 = 0.83 + 1 = 1.83
Multiply all factors - then multiply this factor times the bet amount - the result is the payoff (including your bet).
2.50 x 1.83 = 4.57 (now multiply this times your bet) x 100 = 457
$457 is your total return if both pieces win (including your bet amount).
Subtract your bet from the figure calculated in 2 - Result is your winnings.

457 - 100 = 357 Winnings
This will also work for three, four, five,... team parlays, simply follow the steps. Note: This will provide you with a rough estimate; actual winnings may differ due to rounding.

In case of tie or no action the parlay will revert to lower level payoff, except in a 2 team parlay where a tie reverts to a straight bet.

Round Robins

Round robins are wagers where the customer picks 3 to 8 teams and matches them in as many two, three or 4 team combinations as possible.

When placing a round robin wager no open slots are allowed.
Example:
- Dolphins -5
- Eagles +2.5
- Bills +7

Possible combinations are:
2TP 2TP 2TP Dolphins -5 Dolphins -5 Eagles +2.5 Eagles +2.5 > Bills +7 Bills +7

Playing this round robin for $100 involves putting $100 on each possible 2 team parlay combination for a total ticket of $300.

Reverse

Reverse Bets are essentially double action If Bets. The total amount risked of a reverse will the amount of each straight bet.

Only Action Reverses are accepted, and it is only possible to do combinations of 2 team if bets, no OPEN spots allowed, same if bet rules apply.

EXAMPLE:
Part A:
Cowboys -5 $110 to win $100
IF (if win, tie, or cancel)
Dolphins -14 $110 to win $100

Part B:
Dolphins -14 $110 to win $100
IF (if win, tie, or cancel)
Cowboys -5 $110 to win $100

If both teams win +400
One win, one loss -120
Both teams lose -220
One win, one Push +200

If Bets

"If bets" allow our members to make a second wager pending a win on the first selection. "If" wagers must be made on one call.

EXAMPLE:
Dallas Cowboys -5 $110 to win $100
IF (if win, tie, or cancel)
Carolina Panthers +4 $110 to win $100

If the Cowboys lose, the wager stops there and is scored a loser -$110.
if the Cowboys win +$100 the wager continues to the Panthers wager.
if the Panthers win, the wager is a $200 winner.
if the Panthers lose the wager is a $10 loss.

Teasers

Teasers are wagers in which 2 to 8 teams are selected together in one wager with an adjusted point spread. In a teaser you can add points to the sides or mix both sides and totals adding or subtracting to the totals. If one selection loses the teaser is considered a loss.

EXAMPLE:
2 TEAM TEASER 5PTS FOR $100
Cavaliers +4+5 pts = the teased line is now +9
Celtics -3+5 pts = the teased line is now +2

The payout in a 2 team 5 pts. basketball regular teaser is 10/13. In this case you will lay $130 to win $100.

PUSHES:

In the event that any of the teaser selection pushes or ties the following rules apply:

Special Teasers:
Any Tie is considered a Loss

2 Team Teasers:
Tie + Win = Push, Tie + Loss = Loss

More than 2 team teasers:
a tie reverts the teaser to the next lower level

Example:
4 team teaser with 1 tie reverts to a 3 team teaser.

Buying Points

聽 Buying points allows you to improve your odds by decreasing the spread, therefore allowing you to win when your team scores fewer points. Point buying is available for football and basketball on game sides and totals only.

You can buy up to 1.5 points on straight wagers and 1 point on parlays. Charge per 陆 point is 10 cents.

Buying Points in Football:
You can buy on 3 with a surcharge of 20 cents; you cannot buy off 3.
You can buy on 7 with a surcharge of 15 cents, and you can buy off 7 with a surcharge of 20 cents.
