Default Is this right?

Did the early pick 4 at Monmouth really pay over 22k? I wasn't there and noticed it this morning. I'm just a bit curious, but I believe it's some kind of computer error. It looked like everythig was kind of formful until the last leg. Could only one person have it? Any answer would be appreciated.

It appears to be correct. Wow! I hit that kind of P4 and it pays like $220.

If that's right, those types of things just always seem to be dependant on the pool size. When you're playing with smaller pools like that, it seems like they can get really out of the ordinary from time to time.

It happens at Arlington sometimes where an almost perfectly logical sequence will pay far more than it should, but when you go nuts and hit a sequence nobody should ever hit in the first place because everything falls your way, you somehow wind up splitting a $20K pool with someone.

EDIT: Nevermind, I'm an ass. Out of the loop, and defensive. Strike from the record please.
