I will have to disagree here. The objective is to maximize our profits. To choose a two horse win bet over DD, or pick 3 just because you are comfortable with it
will have you end up in the negative in the long run.
Of course, a DD is a slightly higher risk but its payoffs is typically higher than a $10 win bet. You will need to compare your probale payoffs of your DD to your payoff on your win bet and determine if its worth the slightly higher risk. A determinate for me will be if the DD pays 1.5 times more than the win bet then its a go.
