bowles10 Posted November 18, 2007 Share Posted November 18, 2007 We had a great deal of fun a while back having a go at Placepots & i recall from reading the thread that Jon16 (woodie) landed a £1.9k pot. I recently managed a £450 return on a placepot also. I will try to do this on Saturdays & will make the list from the daily thread views. We would have landed it easily at Cheltenham today where it paid a whopping £213 for just 5 races. The trick is to keep the number of bets down & at least have 1 banker in the perm. I expect the perm to look something like this 1x2x2x2x2x3 thats 48 bets & keeps it under a fiver for those wanting to back the minimum of 10p units. You can join in if you wish but the PL placepot will be posted for the main meeting each Saturday here. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Carl Posted November 19, 2007 Share Posted November 19, 2007 Re: Its time to bring the placepots back yeah the wife still does 1 everyday 2 lines 50p. Might just back into these myself now.:ok Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bowles10 Posted November 19, 2007 Author Share Posted November 19, 2007 Re: Its time to bring the placepots back Surely the minimum is 5p? 10p units only WFTE some bookies also require a £2 min stake in total but i think thats when it done via the tote system. bet365 is a £1 min in total & units of 10p.

Gingertipster Posted November 19, 2007 Share Posted November 19, 2007 Re: Its time to bring the placepots back I have only done the placepot once, at Salisbury. I took my uncle that day and it was really to have an interest for him through the card. Stake was £9. Started well, first two races placed. Continued well, and had two lines running on the last !! ENDED WELL, first ever placepot and it won twice! Great bet this!!! Or so I thought. All six favourites were placed. Lost £2.93 on the bet!!!!!!! Never again. Good Luck.

Sheerluck Holmes Posted November 19, 2007 Share Posted November 19, 2007 Re: Its time to bring the placepots back The trick is to keep the number of bets down & at least have 1 banker in the perm I also think its well worth trying to find the races were the favourites are least likely to place and having a banker in the ones where they are more likely. You could find 6 x 33/1 placers but if the faves get placed, the bet is worthless! I love the placepot though so will be checking this with interest! Good luck!

jtw1 Posted November 19, 2007 Share Posted November 19, 2007 Re: Its time to bring the placepots back The trends section of the Racing Post should be valuable reading before making any decisions on which favs to avoid as BOWLES states , also should help if any weight , age bias etc. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Must just be online then as Ladbrokes and W.Hills shops both accept 5p lines. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
