Bull, Bogus, THAT IS NOT RIGHT!

The Pick 4 and 3 payouts today

The all Stakes Pick 4 I hit, whopee

WHAT REALLY, REALLY bites me is the Pick 3 from Races 9-11

NO WAY, NO HOW IS THAT RIGHT. $3.80 on a $1? Uh uh. Nope. Not right.

I am so flipping hot on this. NO WAY THAT IS RIGHT!

Should have been at least $15

Curt, are you serious? I'm not sure if you're joking or not, but the winners were 7/10, 3/4, and 4/10. That payoff seems like a bit of a gift. An all Sheikh pick 3 by the way! My guess is taht most singled Bernardini, a ton singled Henny, and went 1-2 deep in the Baruch.

of course its right Curt.....the parlay on those 3 horses is only $6.80 for $2. The Pick 3 paid $7.60 for $2.


You bet $2 win on Ashkal Way you get back $3.40
Take that $3 and bet it on Henny Hughes, you get back $5.25
Take that $5 and bet it on Bernardini, you get back $6.80.

Here's the math, using 1st Sat In May's figs of 7/10, 3/4, 4/10:

The chance that all 3 win is 0.7 * 0.75 * 0.4 = 0.21

Fair odds for a 0.21 chance is 1/0.21 -1 = 3.76 to 1. So, your 3.8 to 1 was right where it should have been.

and don't forget the take out you get from the OTB

so, if you tried to parlay those three races
you get took 3 times instead of 1 time

I could never bet a pick 3 that will pay less than $100

The risk to reward ratio is too high

You will surely lose sma nice pays if you ont include the odds on. I unfortunately hit this one too but I also had a few others covered for the potential larger pay. To "never" include or use odds on plays will insure dead tickets more often than just a losing ticket. Many nice multi race tickets include odds on choices. Just look at earlier in yesterdays card.

It is because I touted the 1/2/5 on the Lock City thread, I am a man of the people, when I speak, DROVES follow. I am the Tiger Woods of the Handicapping industry

Furthermore, the 3.80 payoff is probably not only the most hilarious ticket I have ever hit, but probably the most disgusting, I feel like crap admitting that I hit it
