CT, 4-11-13, Race 2

Superfecta Pool listed -- $18,650
22% takeout ($4,103) leaves -- $14,547
$2 payout listed -- $57,968.80
1/4th of that is $14,492.20
(because there was only one fifty-cent winning ticket)

Why don’t the two emboldened figures agree? What happened to the $54.80? These things always seem to be off these days when there’s a one-ticket payoff and it’s never in the players’ favor. Anyone know why? :confused:

Net pool pricing?, maybe someone in Canada was the only winning ticket.

Maybe the 18, 650 wasnt really 18,650 after canadian money was converted into US dollars?

I wondered if maybe it might be something along those lines.

Maybe Rook is hitting them. :) :ThmbUp:
