Not in this contest. It's live money so if you bet your entire roll on a 2-1 shot, then another, etc etc, and you end with $30K, you can win. WPS, exacta, trifecta. AKA real gambling not this $2 WP mythical garbage. I know for certain Nick's first big hit was a tri in the Juvenile Fillies but he can fill in the rest of the details.

Congrats Paul and Nick.

Paul, now that you've finished 2nd in this contest...will you consider buying heart-shaped sunglasses, a LEGO bow-time, and wearing a tail around with your ensemble?

At least, go to Burning Man with some of the prize money.

I think you are safe that I will do none of these. Maybe Nick...

Congrats to Paul and Nick!

Look at #9...is that the ESPN "Kenny Mayne"? Has to be. Knew he was a gambler, but didn't know he was that deep into the horses.
