They are more worried about creating new bootleg ass wagers then they are about being able to bet their damn signal.

it is like the over/under bet, takes $500 IF THEY ARE LUCKY.

Have fun with that $100 they get from takeout. HAVE FUN...

I would never play it - but that bet is actually kind of interesting.

this is from the people that hate the .10 super because it is too confusing. I read the story 3 times and i still dont know what the hell the bet is or how you are supposed to determine what it pays.

They should try to hire someone that has been a player, or at least knows what players want. Just another gimmick from the dumbest company in a very dumb industry.

You get 60 cents on each combination, so if you pick the 1,2,3, you get 60 cents each to win on them, then you get the 1,2,3 exacta box for 60 cents and then a tri box for 60 cents....It is CLASSIC retardedness....

Seriously, how do buffoon's with ideas like this get jobs, when someone with some common sense like myself can't get a whif?

I thought the super hi 5 was idiotic, but this takes the cake... why wouldn't you just save the 3 bucks and tri box the same 3 horses for a buck? So you can cash that monsterous .60 exacta and win ticket?

I remember going to Churchill Downs. Good times. I'll miss that place.

1 WPS
2 WPS
3 WPS
1-2-3 EX
2-1-3 EX
2-3-1 EX
3-1-2 EX
3-2-1 EX
1-2-3 TRI
1-3-2 TRI
2-1-3 TRI
2-3-1 TRI
3-1-2 TRI
3-2-1 TRI

15 bets and chance to loose 15 of them or 13 bets if you hit exactly the right order of finish. For example if it comes in 1-2-3 you loose 5 ex bets, 5 tri bets, 2 win bets, and 1 place bet.

Wow, this is exciting!

I also thought the same thing about the Super Hi 5, but I was completely wrong, it is a huge hit all over the place. But the Hammer created that, and he actually has a clue.

So far we have seen the O/U and this crap from churchill....Seriously, even I couldn't make this up

They've already given up on the over/under bet, though it died a very slow, painful death. I'm sure they'll be just as obstinate in keeping this around long after it proves to be of no interest. What galls me is that they offer crap like this but won't give bettors the dime super that so many want on Derby day. Jerks.

Why in the **** would I want SIXTY CENTS to win on horse? If the 2/1 that I added in there, I am getting back 1.80

I would probably refuse to cash the ticket

They are doing their best to show everyone why the company isn't successful.

It's obviously not geared towards whales like you, scav.

How are they going to display the payoffs?

Im anxiously awaiting Steve Crist's new book on how to crush the Matrix.

This time The Architect really is Colonel Sanders.

It doesn't include place or show wagers.

Who bets on three horses to win in the same race?

Wow, then I'm stumped. Where do you get 15 wagers from then, you're right Cannon I have no idea.

6 tri combos.
6 exacta combos.
3 win bets.

You almost had it - but it's not 3 wps bets (that would be 9 bets - not 3)

3 win bets
6 exacta combos
6 tri combos

obviously copying FISHER'S betting strategy

Why make a bet that assures you of at least 12 loosers out of 15 bets?

If you box 4 horses in a trifecta you have at least 23 losing bets, so it is quite common, what are you trying to say?

I'm all for new and innovative wagers, but this one takes the cake in the dumb category.

Hell, the over/under bet even makes more sense than this steaming pile of dog crap.

they should tie in slots with horse racing. if you get three saddle cloth numbers across, you win a ticket along with your prize. then if those horses hit a tri, you win that money too.

what the hell, couldn't hurt....



how's that for new and innovative??

my guess would be this is another stab at getting slot/keno/lottery players interested in betting horse racing.

i can think of a rare occasion i had 2 win bets in a large field but i don't think i've ever had 3. that part is what cripples it for me.

the 3 horse box exacta and trifecta are fine.

They kind of have that in your state already, kiddo. Instant Racing!

have never gone into the instant racing room, have NO idea what it has going on!

if i understand it correctly, it's a series of parimutuel slot machines that pay off based on previous race results, and you bet on the outcome with slot machine type graphics. it's wildly popular so they must be doing something right!

i hope it keeps doing well, anything to help the track. it's just not for me. i went to a casino once, about 12 yrs ago. never again.

matter of fact, oaklawn is supposed to add quite a bit of square footage to their instant racing area.

I'm not a slots player either. Most racetrackers aren't- it's a completely different mindset.

It is a terrible bet for 98% of this board, but I think it could be a hit for the novice people/family's that go to the track once in a while . These people don't go there with the stacks of money/information/opinions/disciple of most of the people here. They are $2 dollar across the board types. So you tell them that they have all these combos for just 9 bucks and they just might bite. Not to mention you are getting them involved in exoctic thpe bets that they probably do not play. Maybe if they hit 1 or 2 exacta's/triple's they might leave the shallow area of the pool and jump in the deep end.
