What is BOG or Best Odds Guaranteed?

Best Odds Guaranteed, why is it so good?

Best Odds Guaranteed otherwise know as BOG is one way the bookies get punters to bet with them.

Usually found in horse racing, BOG is where you take an early price on a particular horse and know that you’ll get paid out at these odds or the starting price (SP) depending on which one is bigger!

As an example:

  • You bet £10 on a horse at 6/1 or 7.0

  • The horse then drifts to 9/1 or 10.0 before the start of the race.

  • If your horse goes on to win then you will be paid the higher price of 10.0!

  • So rather than winning £70 you would win £100. BOG = £30 extra!

BOG is given out at most bookmakers but there can be a few restrictions on placing bets. These rules vary from bookie to bookie so it is best to check the T & Cs before you place a bet.

Any antepost horse racing bets won’t be eligible for Best Odds Guaranteed.
