So..lemme get this straight....If I had placed $10 on Sarava (the 70-1 odds), that would win me $700?

I don\'t gamble....so I have no idea what these "odds" mean. Then I get more confused by the minus and positive numbers I see on some bets. :confused:

something like that, the odds change depending on where you say the horse will come in, win, place or show.  Win=first place=top2 show=top 3.  I\'m not completly sure of all the little nuences.
