One of the most profitable ways to make money is to bet on racing chickens. Head to the chicken racing den in western Rakugai to start betting on chickens.

When you have made your way to the chicken den, you’ll be asked at reception, “If you would like to purchase tags?”. You must purchase 10 000 tags from the receptionist and exit the building.

Once you have purchased some tags, you must “Save” your game before you continue. This will allow you to restart your game with 10 000 tags should you lose them when placing bets.

Now that you have saved your game, head back into the chicken den and “click” on the “Buy Tickets” option. This will then open up a menu with multiple columns on the screen; each column has its own purpose for placing bets. 

The first column is the “Racer” column. This list contains the names of the chickens that you can place bets on. Each chicken is numbered from one to five; these numbers will later be used when placing your bets.  

Next on the menu is the “Cond” column, which indicates the condition of a chicken and whether it will speed up or slow down in a race. The conditions of each chicken are indicated by arrows that point in different directions. 

An arrow facing upwards is a good sign and indicates that this chicken is more likely to boost in the race. A downward-facing arrow means the opposite, and that a chicken is expected to slow down in the race. The condition arrows are a means to gauge which chicken could win the race. 

The next column is “Past Results.” This is the position that a chicken came in the last three races. The results are read from left to right. It’s always best to choose a chicken that constantly is placed within the top three.

Now that you know which chickens you consider the most likely to win, you will need to “click” on the “Dividend List” and select the results you feel comfortable betting on. 

Different lists will pay more for you betting on the correct result. The lists start from the lowest paying dividend list and ascend to the highest paying dividends. If you want to make the most money, you will need to select results from the “Quintuple” list.

After placing your racing bets, you must “click” on “Start Race.” Once the race has been completed, a screen will appear with your winnings or losses. If you win, you will be rewarded with gambling points that can be exchanged at the Gambling Den for money.
