even better!...and I don't care if its forty bucks for that prize....

2017....8162
2016...317
2015...1906
2014...174 lowest payout is + $134
2013...1817
2012...425
2011...3016

and on and on and on.....could there be a S'fecta in the last 20 years in the Preakness that paid less than $40? I don't have time for that search.

I don't see how it's a bad bet and I am betting it and I will win!

I’ll be making some superfectas as well. Hopefully one of the big ones comes out.

I'm not suggesting that it's a bad bet, but...There are 40 ways for you to win and 1,640 ways for you to lose.
