Hit it both days this weekend for nice scores, on top of it.

Phil, glad to hear you've been playing it. (congrats on the hits, too!) It seems to me any sensible bettor should be playing this pretty hard. First, it's a great deal in its own right--offering a minimal vig to overcome; second, playing this Pick-4 is an investment in the future of horse betting.
I hope more bettors pile on during the last few days. I doubt Ellis (or anyone) will be overly impressed with $30K pools). But if they can finish on an upswing into the $50K range, it would maybe be encouraging.
I already bet my $300 into today's Pick-4. I hope I'm less than 1% of the entire pool!
