I have to say that's the only way I've ever placed a bet yerself, not like your way though, the last time I had a bet was on holiday In Great Yarmouth about 20 years ago, this bloke we met on the coach said he liked a bet when on holiday, so I joined in, we both did a Canadian, I think it was called 6 horse all to win doubles trebles etc. we had a good night that night I had 5 winners the other chap had 4 drew about £180 each, think the original stake was about £2-60p or something like that, I quite while I was winning never bet since
