Spend A Buck paid like $6 to win the Derby at Delaware Park and like triple that at Pleasanton.

In this instance ... only $2 was bet on the horse at Aksar-ben and they scooped an entire win pool on a race that was being simulcasted from the Fair Grounds.
I remember when they had separate pools at Turf Paradise, when they were only allowed to simulcast 2-3 races per day, and people would always say "man it always pays more in CA, players are just sharper here", and these were everyday regulars, yet they were so blinded to the fact the win takeout was 22% here and 15% over there.

Turf Paradise would be quick to pull down the video feed of all the prices because it would make people mad.
