I've heard the commercials for this on ATRAB...Sounds interesting, I love the idea of ante post wagering and "don't" bets... but it seems like it's more involved than the typical player wants to deal with.
The way i understand it, you have to offer a bet that will entice someone to choose the odds you offer, or find someone to take a "don't" bet. As an exchange, they take a vig of the transaction, but there is no "house" per se.
So if the tote shows a horse at 6-1, and I have a strong conviction that the horse won't win, I can offer someone 8-1 and make my own book.
In essence, laying 1-8 that the horse "won't" win.
I can see this advantagous when taking the wrong side of a heavy underlay.
How many times would you have liked to get 5-2 on a 2-5 to lose?!
