Pari-Mutuel
Betting
Please realize that you are not betting against the
track. The management acts as your agent and collects a percentage
as fixed by Florida State Law. The public makes the odds and pay-off
on the winning dogs only, and the management neither gains nor
loses, if you win or lose. Your ticket and all other tickets,
purchased on the dog that wins, are actually a partnership, betting
against the other patrons who have bought tickets on the other dogs
in the race.
When the results are official and
you have a winning ticket, you and all other patrons of the track
holding winning tickets, collect posted pay-off at any mutuel
window.
