Telling people on this board that you question anything because the thundering herd at an OTB was incensed hardly increases your credibility. This stuff isn't rocket science, it's pure common sense, and sometimes all you need to do is sit back and think about it.

It's very simple.

what about the P3? here if you parlayed the 3 winners you get back $1493 for a $2 bet yet the p3 pays only $1007

should the p3 pay out more than the parlay , especially if there is a $58 bomb involved

again i'll point to thursday races , look at the parlay of races 5-6-7 for $2 , it is $65 and change , yet the p3 pays over $193 for $2 dollars almost 3x the amount of the win parlay on the winners!

there was an inquiry

the bridle broke on Sanchez's horse and I didn't see what happened with your #10 but they had an inquiry for that too.
