Pre-recorded Dogs — an RNG product from Aardvark. Players have to predict the outcome of the dogs' race. They have a variety of bet options to choose.

A race is an event with a unique ID. Each race has 6 dogs with a number and color pattern. When betting, players must choose from these 6 dogs. Time of the race is about 1 minute.

Players can place their bets only in the time between the races. This time depends on the organization settings, but it is usually no more than 5 minutes. Also, players can place unique bets up to 5 races in front and same bets for 10 races.

There are 11 different Dogs bet types:

  • Win where players bet on which dog/s they expect to win the race (i.e. cross the finish line first)
  • Place where players bet on which dog/s they expect to place either 1st or 2nd in the race (i.e. cross the finish line either first or second)
  • Show where players bet on which dog/s they expect to place either 1st, 2nd or 3rd in the race (i.e. cross the finish line either first, second or third)
  • Odd where players bet on all odd numbered dogs to win the race (i.e. 1, 3, 5)
  • Even where players bet on all even numbered dogs to win the race (i.e. 2, 4, 6)
  • Under where players bet on all dogs numbered 1, 2 and 3 to win the race
  • Over where players bet on all dogs numbered 4, 5 and 6 to win the race
  • Double (UK “Forecast”) where players bet on which two dogs they expect to finish 1st and 2nd in a selected order in the race
  • Triple (UK “Tricast” or a “Trifecta”) where players bet on which three dogs which will finish 1st, 2nd, and 3rd in correct order in the race
  • Quinella (UK “Reverse Forecast” also “Combination Forecast”) where players bet on which two dogs they expect will finish 1st and 2nd in any order in the race
  • System Triple (UK “Reverse Tricast” or “Combination Tricast”) where players bet on which three dogs they expect which will finish 1st, 2nd and 3rd in any order
