paid out $ 89,000 from a pool of $ 2.5 mil

The carryover jackpot was $360,000 representing about 14.4% of the final total pool. With a takeout rate on the wager of 20.0%, the expected value was -5.6% which is not as strong as some recent payout days where there was a positive expectation.

Bottom line is that if playing the Empire-6 with a mandatory payout is "your brand of Vodka", every other Sunday at Aqueduct is the place to be.
