Even in a massive pool, this moves the needle quite a bit.

It moved it, what, 4 or 5%?

So, you figured $2K was light but $2100 was about right?

It still doesn't beat the $1.3 million Rocco won in 2001.

Why did I know those two posts would be deleted?

And mine was so damn clever. What a waste.

I felt compelled to put something more clever than "Man wins $1 million on Derby Exacta" in the title.

But yeah, I'd say $2,100 sounds about right.
