Dude, read the thread. None of us spent $2,500 of our own money on the thing. It was a contest/exercise for the carryover. We have done it here before, check the archives. Don't just pop in and pop off.

Now, if you were given $2,500 to use in a contest, would you go narrow or use all of the money?

Keep reading the thread and you'll see that Phil hit the P6 with a $120 ticket. I would say that was a VERY nice profit.

Wrong place and wrong time to extoll the virtues of your go narrow approach. The proper way would have been to discuss your approach BEFORE the races were run and actually post a ticket. It is shooting fish in a barrel when you come onto a thread after the fact and criticize.

Give me a break, why play a $2,000 pik 6 ticket for $5,000 payoff , you can get that for a 2-1 fav.
