on the left hand side of the ticket it tells you your share value, might be 0.5 x 267.30 etc etc

Mmm I just did it online, I think it was $2 for it...so it's 2X267.30 I'm guessing?

 

[Sacha]

which betteing agency did u use?? nah mate , if you had 5 horses on a $2 boxed trifecta, i dont think that will even get you 0.25?? not sure but sure aint 2 shares!!

$3 on a 3 horse boxed trifecta is 0.5 of a share, so 5 on $2 has to be less, though i though, 0.5 was the minimum share you could hold... check it online, odds are already up and paying...

I told my mum and bro to do Americain, Maluckyday & So You Think trifecta and they didn't do it!

 

[exzibit3]

Lol...no idea what any of that means or what a trifecta was up til this morning. I used sportsbet.com.au and it doesn't show what the payouts are. Oh well will have to see what the payout is. Cheers.

· 5 horse $1 trifecta box = $60 - so you will get about $5 back! $2 - which is 0.033 of a share - so 0.03 x 267= $8.90 sports bet may be paying more then NSW odds though, not sure

 

[footycard]

a 5 horse boxed trifecta that cost you $2 would be about .033% of a $1 unit.
so .033x267.30 = $8.80 or there abouts
to get the full trifecta the 5 horse box costs $60

yeah thats what i thought

 

[exzibit3]

Ughh, sorry guys all greek to me. I paid $120 on a $2 per combo (60 combo) for a boxed trifecta for 5 horses, that's all I know.

 

[Sacha]

haha well thats makes more sense, so yeh you will get 2 x what ever the odds on sports bet were!!

Just checked sports bet , and the odds are still not up....

 

[jared_davey]

did you bet $120?
