This makes up for the $9 loss on the Calder winning 4 the other day!! And to be honest, the ticket cost less than the one I posted this morning...

And you know, we should all recognize from this that there's credence to Bellsbendboy's P4 theories... Two REALLY playable horses in Kip Deville and Latent Heat bring back great mutuels, and then the favorites on either end. $1,700??? Wow.. This is why the "4" is the best bet at the track.

It is indeed the best bet at the track.That's atleast $700 above the win parlay.I've seen people hide money in the p4,but even more often in the p3(for instance,the pick 3 ending in the Malibu only paid the win parlay of about $150,and Steve got over 11x that much for continuing on with the 9/2 in the last.)Andy,the amount of $$ to put in depends on how strongly a player feels about the horses in the 4 races.The situation is simply different all the time.The pick 6 is a much different situation.$48 on a pick 4 is not necessarily too little to play on a pick 4 on a regular basis. Sure,your chances go up if you spend more,but Steve can be wrong almost 40 times in a row now(playing $48) before he goes in the red.

Nice Hit, I sure wished I would've included your boy Kip Deville. Now that's the way to start a meet.
