Why bet with theTote?
What is the Tote?
"Tote" is short for Totalisator, a system introduced
to Britain in 1929 to offer pool betting on racecourses.
It works like this: all the stakes on a race are pooled,
a deduction is made to cover costs and the Tote's contribution
to racing. The remainder of the pool is divided by the number
of winning units to give a dividend which is declared inclusive
of a £1 stake. In other words, pool customers bet
against each other, whereas in bookmaking they bet against
the bookmaker. Odds fluctuate according to the pattern of
betting and betting ceases at the 'off'.
