Hey - those of use who think that is bizarre, are not winning
 Maybe we are the ones that should re-examine our idea of what isn't bizarre when it comes to Pick 6 ticket construction!

I realize that this ticket took the money, and I only write this as someone who handicapped the card. It's just my opinion, but the bizarre thing about the play was the non-winning horses that were used, and those that were left off. I wonder if this was the only ticket the winner played.

Hey - Steve is talking about this ticket on ATR right now, but why is he assuming a man constructed this ticket?
Steve is saying, "he used" - not "she used" Just sayin' ....

I actually don't find the structure that bizarre if the person was structuring his/her ticket around prices in the second and fourth legs.

Gabby's Golden Gal and Dimanondrella were impossible uses for me. I singled both JWD and FT in those two races.
And I didn't include Gio Ponti because of distance, wet turf, and layoff even though I believed he might have been the best horse going in.

Some of this is big score mentality. Throw out chalk to make payout a worthwhile endeavor. If he loses on a chalky payout (s)he doesn't mind as much by playing second and third choices in most races things are very different as this ticket was alone in it's enormous reward. Very interesting idea. This was no birthday number player.
