I like the first sentence of the second paragraph... solid non-chalant use of the word "bitch" in a news story is always nice.

Essentially they manipulated the odds on the local totalisator (pari-mutuel betting system) so the payout from the bookies (who guaranteed to match the tote odds) would be much higher than should have been the case.

Just an update.....looks like they colleted a cool $1 million payout from the books, not the $200k as first thought.

A nice Christmas bonus!
