Pick 6 Methods, Rules, et al.

Wondering what are some good resources(books, articles, sites, etc.) to help me crack this monster and quit hitting 5 of 6? Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Steven Crist and Barry Meadow have written extensively about the Pick 6.

Key one or 2 long shots...

cover many horses in othe races, if you get lucky- you get lucky.

What to do? Pick 6 is a hard ticket to cash.

Pick 6

First of all you have to determine if it's a playable pick 6, if it ain't take a pass and save your $$$ if you playing and praying to win your wasting money big time you'll lose 99% of the time. Best ones to play are when you can key 2 legs and play more in the other 4 legs. When you see huge carryovers EVERYONE is playing and pooling thier cash, some will spend thousands on a ticket.

As Cnollfan said, Crist and Meadow are excellent sources of the realities in the pick-6.

The #1 piece of advice I could give would be…

Partners:

The rub is they need to be…


  • Serious
  • Mature
  • Honest
  • Talented
  • Ideally they have different handicapping disciplines from yourself and each other. If you can each specialize it goes a long way to eliminating the inevitable red-boarding that will bring stress to the arrangement.
There are at least 999 other variables with these complicated / expensive wagers and I wish you all the best.
