I will watch what it pays for awhile and make my decision. Not going to dive into say a 10% takeout just cause it is 10%. **** they have a Pick 6 at Parx and it could be 0% takeout and I wouldn't touch it. Pools are pitiful. Remember I hit an 80K spilt on that horrible Jackpot Pick 6 at Gulfstream when the pot was over 5 million. I want to add that I used to be a big Pick 5 player but over the last couple years I am seeing less and less 5 figure pays. I rarely play anymore. Just win and doubles and Head to Head on Horse Tourney's. Where I can win if I have a good day or just a better day than my opponent.
