What is ante post betting?
Betting well before the day, often weeks ahead, usually at a bigger price. If your pick does not run, you normally lose your stake.
In practice
Ante post means betting well before the event, sometimes months ahead, usually at a bigger price than on the day. The catch is that if your pick does not run, the bet normally loses, unless the bookmaker offers non-runner no bet.
The Funteron way: fans should not need to know any of this to have a bet. Funteron is designed to show every bet in plain words and in money: what it costs, what comes back if it wins and what you lose if it does not.
