COMEDY - 3 selections - Bets = 13
This is a combination of 2 bets, a ROUND ROBIN and a ROUNDABOUT.
Eg. Let selections be - 'ABC'
ROUND ROBIN = TRIXIE ABC(4 bets) + 3 Up and Down Singles - AB, AC, BC (6 bets).
ROUNDABOUT = Unit-stake Win - If Cash - 2 x Unit Stake Double other 2 (3 times around) - (3 bets).
The cost of a COMEDY = Unit Stake x 13

LIVERPOOL RTC --- 3 Selections - Bets = 13
This bet is also known locally in the Merseyside area as RTC DOS, but as there is another bet called RTC (Round the Clock), there tends to be some confusion. So generally in other areas of the country it is accepted as written -- Liverpool RTC.
This is similar to a COMEDY, as it is the combination of a ROUNDABOUT and a ROUND ROBIN DOS. The only difference being the If Cash part of the ROUND ROBIN is also at Double the unit stake.
Use same selections - ABC
ROUND ROBIN DOS = TRIXIE ABC (4 bets) + 3 Up and Down DOS --AB, AC, BC (6 bets).
ROUNDABOUT = As above.-- Single if cash Double (2 x unit stake) on other Two sels.(3 times around)(3 bets).
The cost of LIVERPOOL RTC = Unit Stake x 13

RTC or ROUND THE CLOCK - 3 Selections - Bets = 3
This is the other RTC, and I have introduced it here to show the difference between the two.
Eg. -- Let selections be 'FGH'.
Bet 1. = £10 Win F -- if cash -- £10 Win G -- if cash -- £10 Win H
Bet 2. = £10 Win G -- if cash -- £10 Win H -- if cash -- £10 Win F
Bet 3. = £10 Win H -- if cash -- £10 Win F -- if cash -- £10 Win G
The cost of this RTC = Unit Stake (£10) x 3 = £30
