A football pool coupon is filled out and the coupons are delieverd to Sport-toto (Sport pools) in The Hague by the PTT. Dozens of people process the received coupons there on saturday. The coupons are put on microfilm electronically and are given a number. A notary is present when the coupons are put into a safe. The Toto director locks the door and the notary sets the combination. On monday morning the Toto results are published in the newspaper. The correct Toto number is punched into the computer tape and the corresponding coupons are found. Finally a cheque of 90.500 guilders is given to the winner. With footage of the soccer match PSV against FC Amsterdam.
