Definitely not a shot at the Wizard (big fan of the Wiz, Andy, you know that), and not a shot, per se, at Dick Powell, who does have this challenge in front of him for Cap OTB. I'm asking legitimately - do you attempt to make as much money as you possibly can by attacking tris, supers, pick fours, pick sixes...or do you simply try to get something?
I noticed he was betting $100 to win on a 5-2 shot and a 2-1 shot yesterday (it comes up on my Facebook feed and thought it seemed a little ridiculous).
If you have someone betting a share of $10,000 for you, and you had to share the results with 200 people...would you want said person betting $100 to win on a 2-1 favorite?
Also keep this in mind - if the bettor wins $20,000 - then each person gets $100. Maybe it's just a gift...found money...but you could get some significant returns with a big bankroll, no?
