$5K. He put in the same ticket for himself that he did for OTB ( they mandated a $5K ticket ) just as he did last year. It's more than he wanted to play but he didn't want to rue missing out. As it was, the first five winners were As, so he couldn't have missed even for relatively small money.

I'm told there were 41 patrons at the Albany teletheatre who sliced up the (second) $55k ticket. To be in the pool, you had to wager over $2500 through Capitol OTB during September and October, and then show up today at the teletheatre and register.

OTB did not " give " Steve anything. They gave an opportunity to their good customers. Steve took advantage of it, and used his skills to make money for those customers.

Just a little follow-up...
I was one of the lucky OTB customers who had a share of Steve's Pick 6. MAJOR SALUTE to Mr. Crist and much thanks! So...I'm looking at the OTB web site and it says each winner gets $1067 after taxes. Big mistake! They still have not taken into account the 13 conso pick 5 tickets that were part of Steve's wager! With consolations, the score is over $65K. Take out 20% withholding and the final pot to divide among the customers is $52K or about $1300 per customer. I called OTB and they said it was impossible to have more than one conso per ticket. They said they have to wait till Monday for their corporate comptroller to audit the results! I can't understand for the life of me how OTB doesn't understand that you can have more than one conso on a ticket. While I appreciate their intentions and am grateful for this promotion, how can they run a betting entity and not understand serial wagering and possible outcomes from using multiple horses on one ticket! Anyway..thanks Steve and Capital OTB.

I can't imagine OTB plans on keeping the withholding. They must be making each person fill out a W2 for 1/41th of the Pick-6 ticket. This is an easy thing to do....I've done it when I have hit the Pick-6 with partners. Everyone is responsible for dealing with the withholding....and most likely getting it back. or at least some of it.
