That's all I can think of.
I do a lot of show (sometimes place) parlays when at the track in person with a group.
We all toss in a set amount and then one person picks one horse in 1st race and if we win the next person can either crap out or roll it all over to his pick. ANd then so on. At DMR two summers ago, we had it up to a 6 winner (show) in a row and friend #7 had a nice chunk of $$$ to bet and he got weak-kneed and we cashed out and enjoyed some libations and food...only to see his theoretical pick finish 2nd at 21-1.
Any loose change on our tickets we'd save for the end and cash them, never more than a couple bucks' worth of rounding error.
