What Exactly is a Pari-Mutuel Betting System?

Pari-mutuel betting is not the same as fixed-odds betting, which is available at legal online sportsbooks if gambling on the NFL, NBA, or MLB. With pari-mutuel betting, all bets are combined into a pool. The track receives a portion of the bet, known as the “takeout,” which comes from taxes and racetrack fees.

In pari-mutuel wagering, the final payout is determined once the pool is closed.

Example of Recent Derby
