The three Russian founders of 1xBet, Roman Semiokhin, Sergey Karshkov and Dmitry Kazorin, are all from the city of Brjansk, some 370 kilometres west of Moscow, although all three currently live in Cyprus.

An Each Way (E/W) bet is basically two bets - one bet is for the horse to win, the other is for the horse to place. Because it is two bets, you have to double your stake. You will receive a return on your bet if your selection wins but also if it places.
