B.C.Pick six payout
 

I'm hearing it paid 1.8 million.???

THats what they said on Cal Racing... 2 live tickets... Colonel John and Zenyatta

I think someone was live to Rip VW as well

1 to Colonel John
1 to Zenyatta
2 to Rip Van Winkle

This is kind of shocking to me, If there were going to be 4 live tickets I would think it would have been 2 to Zenyatta, 1 to Richards Kid and 1 to RVW. To be live in this pick 6 you needed to have big money, covering CJ seems like a total waste to me.

Easy to say after the race,and he only got beat 4 1/2 lengths.

Redboarding Pick 6 probables?

and anyway how do we know, this may of been picked by a little old lady from pasadena that played her phone # or license plate or something

B/c it went through the Maine hub...Big time players using this only.

good info thanks, didnt know Maine had heavy hitters

The hub is in Maine, the players are generally playing offshore and rerouting.

I need to put my boots on,the s_it is getting deep in this thread.

Yawn...http://drf.com/news/article/108811.html

Again these are U.S. players who use the rebate shops, which still carry Cali racing.

you might want to trade in the boots and try a hat and umbrella instead.

if you're churning in the tens of thousands/month it doesn't make sense not to do this.

maine hub + winning pick 6 ticket = whale.

or chris harn.

Wonder what old Chris is doing these days. Thank God for Volponi or that scum would've been skimming for a long time.

So you are wondering why the people who were 5 for 5 going into the Classic, didnt see the Classic like you did? You are criticizing them for using Colonel John when they were 5 for 5 heading into this? Geez, I'd hate to have to be the one who cooks dinner for you.

This is the ONLY place in Lewiston,Maine you can make a bet,and you can only do it in person,and they do not offer rebates,and I have been there,so please explain your theory of how it is done by a whale from somewhere else.

give it bro, you don't know what you're talking about.

"California regulators decided Feb. 20 that they will hold off on considering a cutoff of wagering at post time from betting through the Lewiston, Maine simulcast hub, which processes wagers for rebating giant Racing and Gaming Services."

Nah it was likely a shivering Maine housewife playing her cats birthday. That makes more sense.

Sorry but that article is FIVE YEARS OLD,so how are you so sure that this is still happening?

hundreds and hundreds of winning pick 6 tickets from this hub in the interim.

Proof?

The tooth fairy played that ticket.

it was a guess.

you do get the overall point that lewiston has been, at least in the past (the 5 words after the comma are just for your benefit), a major hub for taking offshore money?

because if you concede that, i think it's for you to prove that's no longer the case.

you should try politics/society. you're a natural for that forum.

The biggest rebater in the world, Racing and Gaming Services, has their hub in Lewiston, Maine.

Who else would have played a ticket large enough to cover a $63, $44 and $52 horse but a whale with a rebate shop?

canadians?

A buddy of mine told me today that the thoroughbred daily news reported that the one winning pick 6 ticket for Saturday was purchased in South Dakota for $48. They singled conduit and goldikova.

Some guys from somewhere in the Dakotas won it in 2003 with a rediculously low bet. Maybe lightning strikes in the same place again? This was also at Santa Anita back when it was a dirt track.

So much for your big rebate shop bettor conspiracies:

Was 48 dollars large enough for you Philcski?

That's a little misleading:

The unidentified bettor, who placed his or her wager through the South Dakota-based account wagering provider Royal River Racing, played multiple tickets, but the one that included the winning combination cost $48 and singled TVG Breeders’ Cup Mile (G1) winner Goldikova (Ire) and Emirates Airline Breeders’ Cup Turf (G1) winner Conduit (Ire).

Royal River Racing is a rebate shop as well- has some of the largest bettors in the country as clients.

The writer of the article you linked is one of my really good friends. I talked to him today about the pick 6 payout actually and he was working on getting the actual tickets played to expand the article for print.

Excellent. In the meantime, to what advantage does someone in that situation play multiple tickets?

Who in their right mind would bet $5k on a pk 6?

Ken Ramsey

a whale. or a syndicate on a large carryover.
