I completely agree. That money, or the bulk of it, could have just as easily ended up being more money added to the mandatory payout if things didn't go his way.
Someone could go all in every race if they have enough money, it doesn't mean that they will be the sole ticket holder or that they will cash and be profitable off the bet.
In fact if more people did this, the chances are greater that the pools would just get larger for a mandatory payout as opposed to someone taking it down this way.
