He hit the pick 6 yesterday at Hollywood He had 5/6 for over $11000 on a $24 ticket. He seems like a good guy and takes alot of heat at times. Good going Ken!

I spoke with Ken once last year during the DMR meeting. He seemed to be a pleasant enough person. Some people don't care for his on air personality and antics.

I thought I heard him say earlier that if he hit, he would dance nude to the horse gods.


Did he?

A nice thing about Ken; he doesn't "pretend" to be a racing "expert". His job as host is to get from track to track, keep the show moving, & oh, yeah, PICK SOME PONIES!
Congrats Ken...I think he'll be Visiting the Maloof Brothers again soon!

Wasn't on camera :eek:

Hitting an $ 11,000 Pick 6 ( OK, it was 5 of 6) on only a $24 ticket that had 3 singles is a day I'll take anytime.........:ThmbUp:

TVG may do some head scratching stuff, but when they do it right, they also deserve the credit.

He hit the ticket - but they did not post it even though they posted 6 other analysts tickets.


Let's be frank - any one who promotes playing a pick 6 for less than $120 is in the long run promoting irresponsibility. You cannot make money on this wager betting that amount. It's too difficult a wager.

I like TVG and I like their analysts, but I don't like why they have these rules regarding the size of their tickets. We're all adults and if they want to promote the wager, then they should promote it in the right way.

First Giacomo, now this pik6. He is a longshot player, that's for sure.

I recall some years back, not long after he started, he had a pick six ticket with 6 of 6, which was shown prior to the start of the P6, and for some reason he didn't get the bet in. Paid $14,000.
