It appears that Dellinger and Declans Harbor will be put up for a $14K Pick-6.

The profit question is superfluous because the contest said you had to put in $2400.

Honestly, if the 10 doesn't come down ( and I have him for a few bucks in the Pick-4 ) it is absolutely insane.

Maybe S will toss in a lap dance for them anyway.

I guess all the negative dropdown/questionable favorites couldn't win.

If the 10 hadn't knocked the 8 over the 8 was going to win the race. It was not a tough luck DQ for anyone who actually needed the 10 ( which includes me ).

Should actually be credited for hitting it twice as one of my pics in the 6th was scratched and I inherited the favorite. And 10 5/6's. Chuck you can have my pie or at least 9 of the slices. LOL

Of course I was in the office all day and didn't get to play. Also I would never throw that much money at a pic 6 unless I had heard, "Mr. Dellinger you have less than a year to live." Thanks for putting it together. The analysis side was paricularly good and should be a must read for everyone.....

Steve/Andy,

Thanks for organizing contest. Lots of fun and good learning experience.

Not 100% sure how this leaves me feeling about the pick6... Definitely see the benefit of deeper tickets and covers. Unfortunatley that probably limits me to playing pooled tickets with a group. Although I might pony up for right Carryover and sequence.

Biggest + for me is grading system, which I will be focusing a lot more on. Also think the "C" cover strategy will be something I try in pk4's as well.

Congrats to winners and Good Luck to those playing Hollywood.

Thanks again,

Pat

A serious congratulations to Wiphan who hit the Churchill Pick-6 which paid $41K. Hooves, Herkhorse, Sniper and Cannon Shell all had five out of six at Churchill.

Fine job.

Great job by Wiphan on hitting the gruesome Churchill carryover. Big ups to Dell as well. Honestly, with my actual bankroll, I probably would have left Odintz' charge off of the real deal. This 2500$ limit contest actually taught me a thing or two about ticket structuring. I appreciate the oppurtunity to learn, as this board is a never ending source of useful information.

Thank you for all the congrats on my first ever "mock 6". I also want to apologize if my post about VM offended anyone. In hindsight, it was the wrong thing to do, whichevr way u slice it. I need to learn how to think before taking such action. Once again, I'm wholeheartedly sorry for my improper post.

Good Luck to those alive in the Wood 6, both actual and contestual (is this even a word?) tickets. Let's take this thing down - D H

Default Churchill P6 Thanks Steve.

Got real lucky today; too bad I didn't pluck down the $ to make the play. The $39k+ profit would have been real nice and it would have allowed me to travel across the country anytime and anywhere Sumwonlovesyou was running. I will take Brad Free's Handicapping 101. I am new to handicapping and have learned so much from listening to your show and reading a lot on DT. Keep up the great work. I hope to see you at Churchill if Sumwonlovesyou runs on the 1st. Thanks again.
