I'm using Xpressbet's toteboard and coming with different results...
Take Churchill for instance here's my calculation for show on the 7th race today:
Track Takeout Pool Horse1 Horse2 Horse3 Show1 Show2 Show3 Churchill 0.16 45451 7714 2570 10710 3.485164636 6.457805447 3.069706816
Actual was $3.40, $7, $2.80
My formula is:
((Pool*(1-takeout))-Horse1-Horse2-Horse3)/3)/Horsen)*2+2.
Is it that xpressbet is publishing inaccurate pools, my method is off, or something else? Even if im using the wrong takeout, it wouldnt account for the fact that Horse2 was overpaid and Horse3 was underpaid according to my calculations...
