It’s also worth noting that if your horse doesn’t win but is placed (usually 2nd, 3rd) you will only get 1/4 or 1/5 of the quoted odds. Which means you shouldn’t back a horse each way unless it’s odds are over 5-1, because you could never win enough to cover your original stake at odds of 5-1 or shorter.

You can back ‘Each Way’ with all online bookmakers, if you want to know how to fill in a betting slip for an each way bet you can click the small thumbnail in this paragraph. It shows you the correct way to fill in the bookmakers slip for each way betting.

Remember that an each way bet is actually made up of two bets, so if you bet £5 each way, your total bet cost will be £10 (£5 on the win and £5 on the place)

So what are the major differences between betting with Tote or betting with a traditional bookmakers? Quite simply the tote is a big pool of cash from all the bets taken on a specific race, the winners are then paid out from this pool of cash. This can sometimes get much higher payout’s from Tote pools than you’d get from a traditional bookmakers, especially if you’re backing outsiders. On the downside you can also get less money if you’re backing heavy fancied favorites.
