I come up with some funny ideas as a broke player
If I've got a solid double or Pick-3 with three consecutive races, sometimes I'll just single a chalk in the first leg, and then single the chalk in the last leg (absent a great pick, I want the post time fav hedged).
1 x (3 x 3 x 3) x 1 = $13.50
(3x3x3) = hoping to hit a couple doubles and a pick 3 here
If the chalk happens to win the first race, and my pick-3 was well based... then I'm not only ahead for the day, but I'm sitting on a ticket to where if the favorite wins the final leg I collect another couple hundred, or have the option of hedging.
same Idea, if I happen to have two good Daily Doubles plays in a pick-6 that starts with a chalk and is split with a chalk
1 x (x 3) x 1 x (3 x 3) x 1 = $16.20
hope I hit a couple doubles, maybe tempted into another double or Pick-3 if my selections are pricey enough...
Not going to hit many this way, but balance my bankroll with an occasional lucky position to hedge or sit on my hands for a bonus
