It is an economical play ($12) that can give you a shot if your exacta opinion is on point. Although Davidowitz's "chaos" theory on ATR yesterday really made me question my approach to the wager.

It seems as if the Super High 5 would be the preferred wager for those who don't have the bankroll to construct a reasonably priced P6 ticket. The payoff may be similar to the P6 and a reasonably priced SH5 ticket would cost much less than its P6 counterpart.
T/F,

I don't know... I'm getting the vibe that it's not a bet that can be successfully tackled for 'small money'. It seems like this really is working for those for whom it was brought about: the disenfranchised 'big time' superfecta players that saw their payoffs quashed by the dime increment.
