So...I'm looking at the OTB web site and it says each winner gets $1067 after taxes. Big mistake! They still have not taken into account the 13 conso pick 5 tickets that were part of Steve's wager! With consolations, the score is over $65K. Take out 20% withholding and the final pot to divide among the customers is $52K or about $1300 per customer.
I called OTB and they said it was impossible to have more than one conso per ticket. They said they have to wait till Monday for their corporate comptroller to audit the results! I can't understand for the life of me how OTB doesn't understand that you can have more than one conso on a ticket. While I appreciate their intentions and am grateful for this promotion, how can they run a betting entity and not understand serial wagering and possible outcomes from using multiple horses on one ticket!
Anyway..thanks Steve and Capital OTB.

The withholding on that ticket will be 25%
