A little help please......

If betting on the top 3 is called a trifecta , what is the term for a bet placed picking the top 4 horses??

Save the bad jokes please. ( a loser , a bad bet , a sucker bet etc.)

Its called a super trifecta, or just super.also wagering on the horses is 100% percent better than sports wagering because you can turn a little into a lot.

Picking the EXACT order of the top 4 finishers in a race is called the SUPERFECTA at most tracks. It is not offered on every race on the card, just one or two races, usually the mid-card and the final race of the day.

Of course picking the top 4 is a lot tougher than picking the top 3 or just the top 2 hence the huge payouts. Unless you are at the track, I would not recommend betting the superfecta because the offshores have a maximum payout of 300 to 1. The superfecta at the track could pay $10,000 but with the offshore, it will only pay $300.

As I have mentioned before in this forum, horse racing is the game to play as it is where you can get the biggest bang for your buck.
