The Dee Tee partners have been very lucky as they have gotten a nice little filly. Doesn't always happen like that. Again, not trying to be a downer, just honest.
I don't agree. People knew what they were getting involved with, and they knew the possible outcomes. Do you honestly think that people that would get into this would EXPECT to hit a pick six? The sun was shining on my ass three weeks ago, and honestly, I'll probably never hit another one in my life. Today I wanted to spend $2500 and I would have hit 1 race out of 6.....

All something like this does is give people that don't want to get nuts and drop 1k into a ticket the opportunity to hit something, this is alot like Rupert did today, his friend played a $3800 ticket or something, and he bought $50 of it. He owned 1.3% of that ticket and if they would have hit, he would have gotten back $7488 on that $50
