A roughie paying around $20 won, a $38 shot came third with the favourite coming 2nd, I was getting a tad excited with my 41% of the tri............................it paid $181 FFS!!!!!!!!!!!
What race number? Always check the pool size for those smaller meetings.

It was the first, Sportsbet didn't pay much better either although the winner was much shorter on SB.
TAB is very inconsistent with exotics, I've been on either side of them so I'll take the good with the bad, wasn't long ago I took $1100 off of them as I went to leave the pub around 7pm on a Sunday night for a race in Asia, it was off of a $4 bet.
Im on O'President (form and Bossy in a big race) .. Also had a little EW on Kaleshnikov (sp??) at odds. Profiteer (imho) looks the best horse in the race, but they often don't win the big races (Kiamichi a few years ago in this same race).
If it's not abandoned, def be having a decent crack at Quin/Tri/F4. Good luck all!

For Trifectas, Sportsbet just pay out the TAB dividend. NSW TAB if the race is NSW or STAB for elsewhere.

I always assumed, rightly or wrongly, that sportsbet, and other corporates, just flick the exotic bets onto the relevant TAB and TAB pay sportsbet a "commission" for the bet. No idea if this is how it really works but I assume the smaller corporates might not want to hold the bets.
