That was the first thing that caught my eye, the low pick-3, but then again I lived in Portland, OR and have played Portland Meadows a ton and you really just never ever know with the pools when they're small.

One day at PM it runs 5/2, 8/1, 15/1 and your tri pays $125, a week later the same sequence pays $1,500.

I learned to just expect nothing rational, and early in the card at DEL it seems possible.

While I don't think it was a putover in the least, it really does seem ridiculous that that so many ticket would come in correct when the horse was such a longshot. Basically, it just sucks to be the one sitting there with a P-3 ticket and no win money on that one.
