3) Only California or Churchill (After Derby Day)
4) Three/Four people control the tickets, others are simply considered investors

That type of format is what I think would work,its just a matter of putting it together.Positive outlook is important in making this a goal.

Not every person is a good capper at every track. At Hollywood, I would want Scavs to be one of the handicappers and in KY I would want Hooves etc etc.

I'd consider jumping in on a big ticket for the BC pick six...

Again, you have to circuitize it. Something like this would only be worthwhile in California, you probably get about 20 opportunies a year in California for a 1 million dollar pot, if you got 10k as your starting bankroll, you would have 20 $500 tickets....

Now, I wouldn't recommend just doing $500 tickets but it is the idea that you really would only need 10 people at 1k a piece

That makes sense. Plus CA has those guaranteed $1mm pick 6 pools. I would want to stick to only 3 venues--NY, CA and Churchill (put Churchill rarely gets to a $100k carryover).

I think you would want many more than 3-4 cappin, so as to increase your chances of not missing anything. For example you have like 20 people capping and send the results up to the final group which can be 3-4 people to make the final decisions and ticket structure. just an idea.

Yes Jim,not a bad idea at all.Once the plays are out,the ticket stucture is not that hard.

Ok,if someone wants to meet me to form this or talk over the phone feel free to do so.I can get 2 investors for sure with no say in the capping,just invest their money.E-mail if you wish.Will be in Chicago for the next 2 weeks.

Only day Churchill is worthwhile is the day after the Derby, there is serious value the day after if there was a pick six carryover.....Card is usually pretty weak because everyone tried to run Derby week.

Lava 07-02-2007 08:58 PM

I would be up put money up without having an input on the picks.

Habersham000 07-02-2007 09:04 PM

It was done before a long time ago on ESPN message board with Byk running it if I remember correctly.....I think they went after a large Pick 6 carryover...

ArlJim78 07-02-2007 09:05 PM

I would be interested in buying in, and in the cappin as long as its not NY. :)

philcski 07-02-2007 09:09 PM

I'd be interested, but handicapping wise I'm only worthwhile in NY or KY. Cal, forgetaboutit.

Can't do NY, 500k pools pay 3k but I guess you can because you get a 20/1 and it pays 40k

Mortimer 07-02-2007 09:12 PM

This is about the stupidest idea I have ever heard of.

From a purely logistical standpoint of course.






Oh it's stupid from any standpoint.

Why not just call out for John Dillinger to hold the money?
