Default Pick Six question

If you hit the pick six, how do you know how many 5 of 6 tickets would collect

IE

09/20/06 FPX 6 $288 Pick-6 3,6,10 / 5,6 / 2,3 / 3,5,6 / 2,5 / 2,8 ------ $910.40

If the 8 wins the last race, I hit the ticket, does that mean I would have gotten 5 of six based on the other horses I used so it would be

2 horses leg one
1 horse leg two
1 horse leg three
2 horses leg four
1 horse leg five
1 horse leg five

8 five of six tickets? Am I doing this right? Just want to know for the future since I am officially turning into a pick six guru

If you hit the pick-6 then the number of 5s you have is the sum of ( N minus 1 ) with N being the number of horses you used in each race.

Thus you are correct...had you won the finale, and hit the Pick, you would have had 8 consos.

I understand that Round, when you hit a Pick Six you also collect 5 of 6 tickets, yesterday, since I had the 2 and 8 in the last, I got 5 of 6 twice. If I would have HIT Six of Six, how many times would I have gotten 5 of 6 also? If that makes any sense

Scavs- Its safe to assume you would have quit your job had that 8 got up. Am I correct? Maybe its a good thing the 8 didnt get up. Ever get a load of those guys who go to the track/otb every day? You dont want to be one of them. Chicks dont dig that.

CHICKS dig it. 8 gets up it pays 11,355 for the $2 plus I would have had 8 consol's I doubt it would have paid $455 on the consol, the 1 winning helped that payout, maybe I am wrong abotu this. i generally don't play Pick sixes but as I was telling kev that with a pool this huge and if the fav's all run, it still pays 7 or 8k. My estimation is that if the 8 gets up, I get about 14k, doubt I would have quit until i got the ducks in a row, probably would have went to part time for a couple months though, this job is bootleg anyways

What is depressing is that I talked abotu the 1 horse in the last with Scuds, and if I would have had more fundage or possibly structured it differently and used three horses instead of 2, i could have EASILY had this one.

we could write a book together.

I just went to lunch with one of our new interns, SMOKING HOT, crazy tall and rocking the hour glass figure. She is crazy model type, I parked the car close today just in case I would have had the opportunity to fog some windows but it didn't happen
