    How Much Are Runners Paid?

    Flat fee?

    Percentage of wager?

    Percentage of winnings?

    Anyone have any knowledge with this?

    I got paid 3 percent of winnings. It still came out to be a good bit. Made over 3 grand one night before. Dudes were up large.

    2-3% of winnings?
    Would it vary with how much is being bet? I suppose 2% isn't worth running unless its more than a dime bet? I'm sure wager sizes vary depending on the play and can probably be cross-matched with other runners.

    2% of amount risked?

    So, if they get down $5000...runner clears $100?

    Cool, thanks for the info.

    I'm assuming they wouldn't make another 2% if it hits?

    Sometimes if you blow a guy who knows a guy who owes a guy, then they give you some bonuses.
