Nearly R150 million was wagered on the tote on Vodacom Durban July day last Saturday and several TAB and tabGOLD customers won huge amounts for relatively small outlays.

The Conglomerate – easy afterwards?
The TAB Quartet pool on the big race, boosted by a R1.2-million carryover, soared to more than R17 million and several Quartet players had six-figure wins for small amounts.
A TAB customer in Embalenhle in Mpumalanga and a tabGOLD client selected the first four past the post in the Durban July and played them in a R24 Quartet Box. Each collected the full payout of R152,149 – over 6000 times their outlay.
Another tabGOLD customer in Chatsworth bet a R20 Quartet on the Durban July and took home R126,790, while a player in Howick in KwaZulu-Natal bet a R100 Quartet and collected R633,954.
The biggest winner on the meeting was a TAB telephone betting customer in the Western Cape, who bet a R3,120 Pick 6 permutation and won nearly R1.5 million.
A Stanger-based player was another big winner, playing a R500 Pick 6 permutation and collecting R902,615!
A TAB customer bet a R220 Pick 6 at Gold Reef City and collected R176,510 and a Mabopane player won R103,155 on the Pick 6 with a R150 bet.
A Western Cape-based digital customer was the sharpest Pick 6 player on the day with a R120 permutation delivering a payout of R541,569.
The Pick 6 pool started with a R4-million carryover and the total pool was more than 14 million.
