Tote Placepots

The Placepot is a good bet for interest for the majority of the meeting, as you can bet in 5 pence units, or go barmy bonkers with a £5 perm that costs bundles if you want to. A Placepot can pay big if the favourites are out of the frame (As in first, second third or forth dependant on the amount of runners) What you must remember, is that if I can do it, then you can! It is just understanding the way the bet works.

The number after 'race1' is 1-5. This is the number of the horse in that first race, as in number one horse or number five horse, this is because you can bet on more than just one horse in that race to get first, second or third place. As long as one, or five gets in the frame then you are still in the Pot. Sometimes I will only have just one selection, this is because I fancy this horse strongly enough for that race on it's own.

Example of how to work out the cost of a perm:
Multiply the amount of selections per race-
2x2x1x3x2x1=24

Lingfield
RACE 1=  1-5   2 Selections =2
RACE 2=  4-2   2 Selections (x2)=4
RACE 3=  1     1 Selection (x1)=4
RACE 4=  4-2-9    3 Selections (x3)=12
RACE 5=  5-8    2 Selections (x2)=24
RACE 6=  2    1 Selection (x1)=24bets

Dependant how you want to bet:-
24bets@£1 = £24 or
24 bets@ 5p= £1.20!

So you can see in the forth race, I have three selections, this is because it is a particularly difficult race, and many horses have a good chance, and we want one or more to be in the frame to go through to the next race.

No one can pick winners everyday, and if your horse gets beat, and comes second, then in a Placepot can be a good bet. This bet would still be running, even though the horse didn't get his nose up and win. But going out on the last race, or only having one horse let us down is a common occurrence in the Placepot bet, and is something the more seasoned punter takes in his stride. This is because every now and then, it can work the other way around, and you just hold on and stay in a good pot and reap the dividends.
