QU pool is $5,479,646 after 17.5% takeout

You will never see a diminished return playing HK racing for the Quinella or Trifecta pools, no matter how much you bet. Why? The pools are too massive every race day.

A) Most ADW's will permit the lowest amount superfecta. A minimum .13 bet here would get you 1/10th of the HK posted payout
