the dime super is GREAT.
just last week at arlington they had one pay 550.00 for a dime, the dollar super was 11,000. no other wager gives you this kind of return for the magnitude of the amount invested. my underlying bet was 14.40. no big deal if you loose but great if you hit it. on the other hand, this dollar wager would have cost 144.00, ouch !, that hurts if you loose it.
you hear people laugh at the dime super. they feel its beneath them to only bet a dime. i say if i can win 500 for a dime....



go ahead,
belittle and laugh all you want....



see you at the banbks deposit window.

I for one applaud such a way to bet even though I dont partake in supers or triples. Horse racing needs to cater to those who dont have trust funds. Like the Grand Slam at NYRA, again not my type of bet but its a real cute way to have variety in your wagering menu.

Can you actually go to the track with a dime and bet one combo and hand the teller one dime? Or do you have to bet a minimum 10 combos making it an even dollar?

i actually made the bet at a teller machine for 14.40 and got a payout slip for 60 cents i brouhgt to the teller. i imagine some would have tossed the sixty cents, but i didn't.
