Place Pick All

[munster705]

I agree with you about the payoffs. Im a avid follower of the left coast curcuit and especially Hollywood Park. I played the place pick all on Saturday and hit 9 out of 10 and stupidly missed a 4-5 favorite in a maiden race....I think it was the 4th race on the card. Horse goes wire to wire and the thing pays $1,300. One quick point. If you go two wide in a race and they run first and second, do you have two tickets alive? I had a fight with my dad about this, I say you do.....

I'm not sure I follow your logic.

Are you suggesting that if you go 5 wide and run 1-2 you hit it five times?

Thanks Phil

That is what I was getting at....

I played a very small ticket at Hawthorne last week after a quick 5 minute handicap session. I singled in every race but one. I proudly went 2 for 9.

It got me thinking though. I checked the results for the last month at Hawthorne and saw the bet had only been hit 4 times. Once for $9k, once for $7k, once for $2k and another for $1k.

If you go 2 deep in all 9 races its a $512 for $1

Hawthorne is a tough track to hit this at. Too many big fields and wide open races. Hollywood is perfect, usually a few 6-7 horse fields and the horses run to form for the most part. I would not play any more than a $32 ticket myself

Only reason I played it was a few of the boys and I at the OTB were joking about it. I have no interest in playing it on a regular basis.

People can't even hit an hilarious win bet at Hawthorne, it is bad, especially now
