It is $165 to win a $10,000 prize. That is not bad value at all.

I have played in all four Breeder's Cup Betting Challenge contests. It is an amazing experience being there live for the Breeder's Cup, having the best seats in the house, full buffet each day, etc. It is a first class event all the way.

Fortunately, I won my want in back in January so don't have to play Sunday. But I would encourage anyone to give this a try. It is an unforgettable experience.

Unfortunately, it's not in the "budget" for me now, but really hope that I will get some extra $$ to play in one of these soon. As most of you know, I compete in most all the "free" contests, but I would really be interested in seeing how good/bad I would do in a "Big Hitters" contest like this one.

Best of luck to all that are playing and hope you make the "cut".

I think i might take a stab at it this week. I was lucky enough to qualify for the NHC. Something tells me this would be a bigger rush being that it takes place on our biggest day of the year. Good luck to all those who will compete this weekend..

I have been in 7 NHC's and all of the BCBC contests. The BCBC is the far better event in my opinion. Being live on track makes a huge difference at the event and you get access to everything.

Further, the BC contest returns 100% of all entry fees to players and adds another $25,00 to the pot on top of that. The NHC, well no one knows exactly what the take out is but I assure you it is not small.
