You need to go back & read my post again, Archie. Nothing misleading about it. See the part where I said..."total bets" TWICE? Nowhere did I use the word "cost" in my post, other than in quoting Mel. The actual cost of the set would vary from bettor to bettor, depending on how they did on their race bets. And they were not sports book bets as you said, but race book bets.
