Correct.

I wonder how much he has played thus far chasing that rainbow?
Naturally, he's way out in front after that score today, but he has
likely invested well into six figures if he plays $7K tickets very often.

He may have stepped up bigger this time with tomorrow looming.
That jackpot has been huge for some time, though.
I have a feeling that he was a major contributor up to this point.

Wow- they are interviewing Daniel Borislow live on HRTV right now.
Good for him!

Tomorrow may still be a mandatory payout. Still be a decent size pool.

I have a feeling alot of the pick 6 money will make its way into the pick 5 which has a carryover

Tote machine at Palm Beach only lets you put in a ticket up to 10k...so it was really a 15k ticket that in the leg that he didn't hit ALL he had 4 horses. 2 horses on one ticket and 2 on the other. It was basically one big ticket divided up b/c of the machine

My thoughts as well.

Probably only needed a $10k investment to make sure all the unplayed combos would be covered.

Hard to believe track management couldn't find a way to spread a bunch of these wagers around the country.

Much shadier things have been done, and we are talking $4-5 million of takeout this cost them.

Don't think they would risk their casino license.

U r not looking at this right it was $15k to buy all the races.. If gulf was gonna do this they would need to do it twice because if u just buy all in every races once It's possible that ticket could be the only one .now wouldn't that be something if they did just all every race and ended up taking down the rainbow6 oh boy!!!

We have been consistently blaming the racetracks for the indifference that they show towards the players...and now we ridicule a track for not screwing the players out of a multi-million dollar payoff?

Unbelievable...
