You can play exacta's, trifecta's, super-fecta's, daily doubles, pick three's, pick fours, pick 6's, magnum 5? What about the cut off Sunday? Is it at midnight Pacific time Sunday? Are you limiting it to US tracks? There are some tracks from England and Australia and maybe even Japan that are on pretty late? Just thought I would throw these at you before others do! Thanks for the contest Jack.....Gettin the Kentucky Derby Spirit!!!

i would say keep all wagers for that given track,,
i think 90% of the players dont know what the magum 5 is..thats plays from different tracks but in the same wager & ticket

for example you can play any us track you want.. but no criss cross for the same wager..

do you think that will be better especially for the guys that have no idea what were talking about..

Since I have no idea what it means - I will say yes. lol

Okay I will make this official

No criss cross for the same wager

I am going to say anything else goes and if we notice something I will make adjustments for the next contest

And yes - Clock is about 1 hr fast of East Coast time as we speak.

Thanks Rip

pick3's example wagers

race 1......123
race 2......324
race 4......289

this is what you do

take the number of horses in the first race (3)..than times that by the number of horses in the 2nd race (3)..that equals 9.00...now take the 9.00 and times that by the number of horses in the last race (3)
so for tha example it would cost you $27.00 for a $1.00 pick 3
if you want to make it a $2.00 pick 3 and win the price they post than thats 54.00

remember all 1.00 prices get you half of that payout..hope this helps
`````````````````````````````````````````````````` ``````````````````
for a pick 4...do the same thing ...time all 4 races
if u had 3 horses for the pick 4 in all 4 races it would be
3 x3=9.00...9.00 x 3=27.00..27.00 x 3 =81.00

so a pick 4 with 3 horses per race will be 81.00..thats only for 1.00

heres the payout info for win (first ) place (2nd ) & show (third)

what ever your horse pays for win place or show heres how to fiqure it out..theres a few different ways,,for me (Rip) this is the easiest way.Im sure some guys do it different but im trying to give you some examples..

if your horse pays 4.80..and if you have 20.00 on him..the easiest way to fiqure out how much you win is..take 4.80 x 10.00 (thats half of your wager)
that comes to 48.00..now for your net winning minus(-) the 20.00 you bet and you won $28,00 for that given wager

so take half of what you bet and times it by what it paid..than minus what you bet and thats your net money you won..

for a 15.00 wager you can take the 15.00 and times it by 2.40 (for a 4.80 payoff) instead of doing it by 7 than by 1/2...these are just examples..some sportsbooks have the payout and the horse tables on the website to help you

heres some triple payouts
you must have at least 3 horses
for any 3 horses no matter what order they come in (as long as there first.2nd & 3rd)
for a 1.00 it will cost you 6.00..that only gets you half of the payout
2.00 wagers get you the full price
a 2.00 wager cost you 12.00

you can do a 2.00 straight tri and thats only 2.00

or you can do a tri wheel or a tri. key.

anyother questions just go to your book.

I'll help watch the times of the race as well. I'm gonna watch most of the action on Sat and Sun. If anyone wagers big, I'm gonna try and watch that race to make sure the times are accurate......I hope nobody hits a pick 6!
