Scoop Six Races Results
The bet I would really love to win is the Tote Scoop 6, I know from experience that many tote scoop 6 slips only have the racecard numer and not the horses name which makes it a devil to check. Also the Tote do not seem to have an archive of results so there is no one reliable source for the Scoop 6 results So I will try to post them on my website every week - yesterdays are on now "Scoop6 Results 16th September 2006 - no winners"....

WTO Weighs In On Online Gambling - Forbes.com
All European businesses involved in online gambling in any way will welcome this move to curb the powers of the US to interfere in their trading...
WTO Weighs In On Online Gambling - Forbes.com: "Aggressive moves by the U.S. to thwart online sports betting within its borders may spark a broad trade dispute with Caribbean and European nations that provide homes to the $12 billion Internet gambling industry....
The BBC reported Tuesday that the WTO was setting up a committee to study Antigua's claims and has 90 days to report on the U.S.'s compliance with its earlier rulings. Members who fail to comply with WTO rulings face the possibility of sanctions, like higher tariffs on non-related items.
While casino gambling and state lotteries, even interstate lotteries such as Powerball and Mega Millions, are common in the United States, gambling is regulated at the state level. Federal laws, such as the Wire Act, prohibit interstate gambling. Online gambling, particularly sports betting, would fall under the prohibition.
But the laws have not kept individuals in the U.S. from opening accounts at online betting sites, which are legal in most other areas of the Western world."

Safe to gamble? Don't bet on it
This part of the article covers the only way to be sure that the site you gamble on for poker and casino gaming is playing fair... check at ecogra.org to see if it is monitored...
Guardian Unlimited Technology | Technology | Safe to gamble? Don't bet on it: "Within the online gambling industry, eCogra is well regarded. It aims to bolster consumer confidence by providing sites it has approved with a 'Play it Safe' badge, which can be earned only by sites that are audited by PriceWaterhouseCoopers and whose software is regularly tested to ensure it is constantly random. In fact, the badge is so well-regarded, Beveridge admits two sites have copied the graphic without bothering with being audited, and despite legal letters are not taking it down. Would-be gamblers should check the ecogra.org site to make sure a site displaying the seal has the right to do so. "
Alarming start to the article - how your online gambling account can be raided..."a gambling information site called Checkraised.com made some software available: a "rake calculator", which measures the varying cut, or rake, that online casinos take from bets to pay for their operations. But some users had problems with the program and when security companies started investigating, they discovered the calculator silently dropped keylogging software - watching what keys were pressed - on the computer. It also used a "rootkit" to hide itself from searches. When the user logged in to several gambling sites (whether or not the calculator was running), it logged the user name and password and sent them to an unknown site. Why? So the keyloggers' controllers could later log back into the site as the user, and play against themselves - and lose. On the user's account."

Tuesday Combination Exacta Horse Racing Tips
Combination Exacta - Tuesday Horse Racing Tips:
For todays combination exacta selections I have worked around my second each way tip - Gavarnie Beau 4.50 Leicester - this selection won just four days ago and at 7/1 represents great each way value. For the other two horses I have put in the favourite, Sunderland Echo, which is also top Massey and Catweasles second dutch bet selection, Peter Island.
To put this on as a tote combination exacta costs 6 times your unit stake, this means that you have 6 possible winning combinations for first and second - that is if any of the three selections are 1st and 2nd you win.
As this is a handicap with more than the minimun 8 runners you could also put the 3 in a combination tricast or tote trifecta if the latter is available on this race.

Gambling Housewife Combination Exacta Explained
In the true nature of a Gambling Housewife my very favourite type of bet is the combination exacta: as it offers potentially huge returns for small stakes - forget that blokey macho attitude that reckons big straight bets show you are a real man is complete cojones to me and probably spread by the bookies themselves to lift their profits. The bigger your stake the more you stand to lose and the more profit goes into the bookies pockets, give me big wins for small stakes anytime!
My daily combination exacta selections consist of 3 horses one of which is usually one of my each way tips for example yesterday my long shot, Partners In Jazz won at 9/1 for a tidy profit but if I had manged to pick the 2nd as well the tote Exacta paid £268.00 to a £1 unit stake - £67 more than the CSF (computer straight forecast) £202.21.
This difference in payout is due to the exacta being a tote pool bet where winning tickets share the prize pool for that particular bet and race while the CSF is calculated on SP (starting prices). The tote slips can be a bit of a pain to do at your local bookies as you have to be carefull filling them in and also check that they have registered correctly - my bookies machine often misses one or more selctions...but the difference in payout makes it more than worthwhile - in the example combination exacta result above you get over £67 more for a few extra seconds filling in the tote exacta slip.
If you bet online then putting on a combination exacta is a doddle, I am aware that the combination exacta bet is avaible on the Tote and Blue Square sites but with a minimum total bet stake of £2 but if you want to use very a small unit stake to start with then that is available on Betfred only - find the link to Betfred for the combination exacta here if you want to try out the exacta with just 5 or 10p unit stakes.
For my daily combi exacta I usually put up 3 selections, using a £1 unit stake it costs £6 total as 3 selections give a possible 6 combination for 1st and 2nd. Rarely I will put up 2 selections only where I can see the race as a true 2 horse race. These may have a higher strike rate but the returns are usually lower hence my preference for more difficult races for my combination exacta selections.
Totesport have a great explanation of the exacta and all other tote pool bets.
