You know what a show bet will pay from the pool totals. You just don't know who you have to share the pool with. The whole object for me is not to bet against myself , too many multi combo tickets and don't throw the ticket on the ground, meaning if the winner is going to be 4/5 why bet a 3/1 shot with no chance of winning.
