Default P6 SYMPOSIUM: Carryover Contest

Good opportunity again for another DT Carryover Experience...

Hollywood ($180k), Churchill ($97k) and Belmont ($72k) all have carries... Last time we did this it was a very worthwhile endeavor... We had a ball and I think everyone learned a lot about ticket structure, investment strategies, etc.

$2,500 bankroll... and I'll see if Andy is willing to moderate again...

I plan to have Brad Free and 2 more guests on 'ATR' to cap the '6's' on Tuesday...

Thoughts? Just the HOL carry? Or any one (or more) that anyone wants to enter? I'll offer "DT/ATR" prizes again...

I think it's fine to use all three.....though people can play any or all. Plays MUST be between $2400 and $2500 for each carryover and multiple tickets are encouraged.

I would like to take a shot in the dark. Sounds interesting.

Keep in mind the intent of the "Symposium/Exercise" is to hone our collective skills building P6 tickets using Steve Crist's A-B-C-X method with multiple tickets that weigh 'prime includes' and 'backup options' (as opposed to the equally weighted style 'caveman' tickets).

If you weren't on DT for our first pass at this, read through the linked thread (above, or in the Charles Hatton Reading Room) to get a feel for what we were trying to accopmplish... Andy Serling, who has hit two $100,000+ P6's, will be available as moderator to help explain building these plays. The exercise is intended to demonstrate how difficult it is to hit P6's, even with 'big money', and was tremendously helpful and fun when we did it a few months back...

Prizes for all three P6 opps Wednesday including 'ATR' and 'DT' swag and DRF Press publications (like Crist's Exotic Betting book)..

'At the Races' will also feature special coverage of the P6's today, Tuesday and Wednesday with Andy, Brad Free, Jon White and others offering their insights on the sextets, and I'll be playing as many of the races live on the show Wedneday as possible (BEL 7th-9th; CD 7th-9th; HOL 3rd-6th)...

Looks like fun. I might give one of these a run with real $$, though not $2.5K!
