If I knew him/her, I'd gladly take the even money offer. As I said, I could turn around and GET 3-2 on the same 3 horses offshore.

Let's say I spread $1000 on Bernardini, David Junior and Electrocutionist at Gameday. If one of them wins, I'd win $1500. I'd pay Revolution the $1000 and still have a $500 net profit. If some other horse wins, I collect $1000 from Revolution and lose $1000 at Gameday, breaking even. So, I'd either make $500 or break even. That's the kind of bet I like.
