Originated by a Frenchman, Pierre Oller, the word means "among ourselves". The track is a host for the races, and has no interest in which greyhounds win or lose. The bettor never bets against the track, only against other bettors. The track merely holds the money wagered until the finish of the race and pays the winning ticket holds accordingly.

The win price is the result of dividing the amount of money wagered on the winner into the total win pool, less lawful deductions. The place pool is divided between the two greyhounds and each half is apportioned to ticket holders appropriately based on the number of tickets held. The show pool is split into three divisions and apportioned accordingly to the number of valid tickets held. All other pools (i.e., quiniela, perfecta, trifecta, etc.) are determined similarly.

You can place a bet or cash in your winning tickets at any pari-mutuel window. Just be sure to include this information:

  • Track: Tell the clerk which track and race number you would like to bet on. For example "Jacksonville, race 5", "Palm Beach, race 8", or "Calder, race 10".
  • Denomination: Tell the clerk the dollar amount you wish to bet such as "two dollars", "five dollars", and so on.
  • Type of bet: Say "win", "place", or "show". You can also bet quiniela, trifecta and superfecta combinations. ( See Common Bets)
  • Program number: State the number of the greyhound(s) on which you wish to bet.
