Recently I saw a discussion on another board about a ten cent pick-6 and there was a suggestion to separate the pool into two segments.
What if that idea was applied here. A bettor would have the option of playing a .10 or $1 wager on the race.All monies wagered would be divided 90% to anyone holding a $1 ticket and 10% to the .10 winners. If no one holds a $1 ticket the money carries over to the next day.
Hollywood's superfecta pools are around $175,000 and I would guess they would be cut down 25% by the additional wager. Assuming 50k was in the first day's pool roughly $4,000 would pay out to the .10 winners and $36,000 for a $1.
Any thoughts?
