(I haven't read up on the rules or taken more than a superficial glance)It seems like it may be equivalent to dutching pre-selected groups of horses, in a 3 or 4 horse/interest parimutuel pool without the requisite accompanying significant reduction in takeout.
Right now there's a popular business idea going around that involves making products simple and intuitive, in order to broaden the market. One of the big obvious leaders is the video game industry. Wii came out with very simple, intuitive controllers. Now microsoft had that wonderful, touching Super Bowl commercial introducing their simple, intuitive controllers.
So everyone wants in on the action, and it's a popular idea in board-rooms and class rooms galore.
Cut it to 4%? takeout or so, and it has potential among the elderly and the casual casino-oriented fan.
As-is it is destined to die, or like the 'grand slam'; fade away into bolivian.
