Placing bets on greyhound races can be a complex puzzle to solve. Whether it be the type of lure that the dogs are chasing, the trap that they’re put in or simply the weather and how it’s affected the ground, there are loads of influencing factors on the outcome of a race. To successfully pick a winner can be tricky enough, but to pick the three that come in the first three places seems all but impossible. It is a challenging bet type, which might help to explain why it is that Betfred are offering a 10% bonus on your total winnings if you manage to pick a winning tricast, either straight or combination, on greyhound races.
Betfred’s Tricast Bonus Promotion Explained
A Tricast bet is one in which you manage to pick not only the winner of a race but also the greyhounds that come in second and third. Which type of Tricast wager you opt for will dictate whether they need to finish in the exact order you’ve chosen from first to third or whether they can come in any order. A straight tricast is the one you’ll be placing where you’ll need to correctly predict their finishing order, whilst a combination tricast is a bet on three greyhounds coming in the top three places but not being too concerned about the order in which the dogs manage to finish the race you’re betting on.
In the case of this promotion, Betfred are saying that it will pay you 10% extra on the winnings of your bet. As you might imagine, the difficultly of the straight tricast bet means that you’re perhaps more likely to pick a winner by choosing a combination tricast, but the flip side is that a combination tricast will be a total of six or more bets as opposed to one straight bet. Either way, the 10% bonus will result in more money heading your way on a successful tricast. It is extra money that you don’t need to do anything to earn other than see the dogs you chose finishing the race in the top three, either in order or not depending on your bet type.
Looking at the Small Print
Betfred have put certain conditions in place regarding this promotion, which perhaps isn’t all that surprising. It is for new and existing customers, with the offer being available on all greyhound races covered by the company. If your bet is made void then it obviously won’t count, nor can you use existing free bets in order to place your bet if you’re hoping to make use of the offer. One of the most important points to remember is that the 10% bonus is paid on the winnings, so your stake money will not count towards the bonus payout that you receive from Betfred on your successful bet.
One of the nice things about this promotion is that it is paid in cash, which means that you can withdraw it straight away if you wish to. There are no free bets in the payout, nor are there any wagering requirements before the money is yours to use as you see fit. Instead you get paid 10% extra on your winnings if all of your selections on either a straight tricast or a combination tricast are winners. The 10% extra will be paid upon the settlement of your bet. In other words, if you are paid £110, with £10 having been your stake, you will be paid £120 in winnings thanks to the 10% bonus on the £100 of winnings.
