I absolutley love the concept and I actually do it on a much smaller scale when I am playing exactas sometimes.
For what it's worth I only play 1-2 days/week.

The Barry Meadow method is also an option. It requires the user separate their choices into A (1/race) and B choices. Then pick how many A choices must win to cash. So if you went 2x3x5x6 it would cost $62 on 11 tickets. $62 would also buy you a 2x3x3x3 with $8 left over for a hot dog and beer without that requirement.

$16 is a lot cheaper than $149. and it ends up working similar to Betsmart in the $40-60 ticket range....

CJ, I was about to mention Meadow's book. It has a lot of valuable wagering charts for those looking for exotic overlays.
