Um, wasn't it a HORRENDOUS bet to bet on a Pentafecta into a 19 horse field with a pool of only 300k and change?

Tri pool was 25 million, why would you bet into a penta with such a small pool? What were people thinking?

In a 19 horse field there are almost 1.4 million possible outcomes, why would you bet into a pool that small?

I don't get it.

There's a Free Quarter-Million-Dollars in Dead Money waiting to be scooped up Wednesday in the SH5 Pool... To me, that's a better pool to jump into than the Pick-6 Carryover with a $2 minimum bet..You only have to be right about the one race, not six of them!

LOOK LIKE THE BETTING OPPORTUNITIES OF THE YEAR.
I personaly feel that these pools should have been mandatory payout.
But in the spirit of "screw the casual player" the PTB feel otherwise.
I'll be shooting for both pools.

ps. can ya spot me 3k? :cool:
