Playing To Win

204 - WIN

Overview

The win bet is the most traditional bet and definitely one of the best. Very simply, your horse must finish first to collect.

Reading the Tote board

To determine your winning payoff, multiply the odds on the Tote board by 2, and then add $2. The chart below lists odds and winning $2 payoffs.

Win betting strategies

Because win betting is so simple, most win betting strategies revolve around which bets to combine with win, if any. Remember, the more different bets you make, the more losing tickets you will likely have at the end. The simplest (and sometimes the best) strategy is to bet your money on the winner.
