The single instead of 2 deep allows you to use 6 instead of 3 somewhere else. Best way to catch a bomb is to use more bombs...

Not redboarding but the majority of my major pick 5 hits I could have had for a buck instead of .50 because I decided not to single and in retrospect should have.

This game isn't about the money you win, it's about the money you don't leave on the table when you are correct. That's where the winning players reside.

IMO
Can’t disagree with anything you said. Most of my big scores were with larger than minimum increments in multi’s and pressing where you have a strong opinion.

I guess the discussion really is...is she a good single? I don’t think so, but I can also see why she is for a lot of people. She’s just not the kind of horse I want to rely on.
