Title: Horse betting question Post by: superwomble on May 31, 2012, 11:23:21 AM I've been looking into a bit of horse betting recently, and noticed when odds are discussed that 'BOG' is mentioned quite often. For instance, a quote I saw today: 'I’m going to take some of the 3/1 (BOG, of course!) on offer at present from betVictor'.
What does BOG mean please? Thanks :) Title: Re: Horse betting question Post by: horseplayer on May 31, 2012, 11:25:20 AM best odds guaranteed
so in the example you raise if you take 3-1 on BOG and the horse wins at 4-1 you get paid at 4-1 be aware if you back horses that either are backed heavily (win or lose) or a fair proportion of winners you will not keep the BOG feature for to long.

Do some sites actually take this off you then? Never heard of that before although I'm pretty new to the game.

this is a list of "big" bookies that offer bog at least to start with bet365 betfred betinternet.com boylesports coral (be careful they have lots of win markets bog is only on the one that offers generally very poor prices) paddypower vcbet william hill |
