A few thousand probably, considering they haven't promoted it. Can't even guess as to your second question. I have enough trouble picking four.

If they made it a 1-cent Pick 18 I'm not sure it would be hit.

Correct me if I'm wrong --- but wouldn't a 1-cent Pick 18 using 3 horses in each race cost a bettor $3,874,204.89

They should have made the bet a 1-cent bet with a minimum ticket price of $1.

A 10-cent Pick 18 is impossible to hit.

Your numbers are right, Calzone.

I think you have to attack that one with 17 singles, and then the all button!

Maybe Track Phantom will pop it that way.
