Trifecta betting can provide big returns for small outlays but to profit from trifecta betting you need to have a trifecta betting system that guides you to betting more trifecta combinations with smaller amounts when the trifecta dividends are expected to be large and less trifecta combinations with larger amounts when the trifecta dividends are expected to be small.
Our study of place probabilities led us to realise that the chance of a trifecta combination occurring depends not just on the win chances of the three runners in the trifecta but also on the win chances of every other runner in the race! As a result, we can show that a trifecta of three runners at say $3, $4 and $5 will actually have different chances of occurring and pay different amounts depending on the chances of the other runners in the race. Even some of the most serious trifecta betting punters don't understand this and with Bet Selector's Tote Pro module you can devise a trifecta strategy to help you profit from other punters trifecta betting mistakes.
A successful trifecta system can't just use win percentages to pick second and third place selections for trifecta betting because the order of favouritism for second and particularly third can be different from that for the win. It is not until you use Tote Pro to examine a race with a very short priced win favourite with the program that you realise how different the third place probabilities can be from the win probabilities - and in turn how important it is to use the 2nd and 3rd place percentages rather than win percentages for predicting 2nd and 3rd outcomes for trifecta betting.
Odds-on horses in particular are so likely to win that their chances of coming third are often exceeded by a number of other runners in the race. As a result, favourites are often less favoured to come third than traditionally thought and are over-bet for third in trifecta betting. What's more they are further over bet in trifectas by punters who simply box the main chances because in doing so they are saying the favourite is just as likely to come first as third. Armed with this knowledge you can devise a trifecta betting system that works.

TABs offer Flexi Betting (or fractional betting) to make Trifecta betting more affordable. Suppose you wanted to box 10 horses in the Melbourne Cup with the aim of getting a trifecta of at least $1,000 but hopefully around $10,000 or more. Now a trifecta of 10 boxed horses contains 720 combinations and would cost $720 (using $1 units) which you may not be able to afford. With Flexi Betting you could instruct the TAB to reduce your trifecta bet to say $72 (10%) or even as low as $7.50 (1%). If the trifecta paid $10,000 then you would have to outlay $720 to get the full $10,000. But with Flexi Betting the TAB would return you $1,000 for your $72 trifecta Flexi Bet or $100 for your $7.50 trifecta Flexi Bet.
The minimum allowable Flexi Betting percentage is 1% which means instead of betting trifetcas on the TAB for $1 you could effectively bet them for as little as one cent each! If you want to take advantage of Flexi Betting's low cost trifectas when TAB betting then you need to know (a) how to calculate how much a multiple trifecta bet is gong to cost and (b) calculate what 1% of the normal cost would be. Fortunately if you want to follow such a trifecta system, Bet Selector's Tote Pro module will help you do all this and much more.
