Dumb question on horse racing

[OnlineInvests]

Let suppose i bet $2 on a horse and the track say the horse paid $18.50
Does that mean my $2 bet is included in the payout? or $18.50 profit + my $2 bet is returned, so a total of $20.50 ?

Thanks

$18.50 includes your bet.

[whalewager]

yep, you will receive $18.50 at the pay winda. If this puts you ahead or even for the day, consider yourself a big winner and get the hell outta there :party smi
