\"manThe proliferation of online betting companies is such that many young people will only ever have experienced placing a wager online. Doing this is nice and easy, with the form essentially filling itself in when you\u2019ve found the thing that you want to bet on and clicked on the odds, thereby adding it to your betting slip. From there, you just add in your stake and you\u2019re good to go. As a result, the art of filling in an actual betting slip has been lost for many, leaving them completely stumped when they\u2019re presented with a physical slip.<\/p>\n

There are countless reasons someone might suddenly come across a real-life betting slip and need to fill it in, whether that be because they\u2019ve gone to a horse racing meeting or a dog track and there\u2019s a bookie there, or because they\u2019re looking to place a bet at a football match, there is no mobile signal and so you head to the on-site stall to do so. Whatever the reason, being able to fill in a betting slip properly can help people to avoid embarrassing situations where they do the wrong thing and lose out on placing the bet that they were trying to as a result.<\/p>\n

The First Steps<\/h2>\n

\"bettingFirst things first, the immediate action that you\u2019ll need to do is to actually pick up a physical betting slop. These are slips of paper, usually white, that are found along the walls of the bookmaker or on the tables in the shop. The next thing that you\u2019ll want to do is to write down the event that you\u2019re betting on. If this is a horse race, for example, then you\u2019ll want to write down the time and date of the race that you\u2019re placing your wager on as well as the meeting that the race is being run as part of. For example, you might write \u201cAintree 1.55\u201d or \u201cAintree 13:55\u201d on \u201c13\/12\/2021\u201d.<\/p>\n

Next up, make sure to write down the name of the thing that you\u2019re betting on, such as the horse that you think will win. Some people also choose to write down the odds as they are at the time that they\u2019re writing the bet. After that, it\u2019s time to write down how much you\u2019re betting and the sort of bet that it is, such as \u201c\u00a310 Each-Way\u201d, remembering that the stake is doubled in Each-Way bets, so that would cost you \u00a320 to place. This would mean that you would end up with a betting slip that looks something like this:<\/p>\n
