is the reason why the pick 4 payouts stink at aqueduct more because of short prices or the .50 threshold?? i've hit my last 4 pick 4's there and i think i'm down probably $50 dollars

Yes, I do agree that the .50 mininum bet does depress payouts to an extent. People have more combinations to win, but there is also more money coming into the pools. But for the most part, the majority of these pick fours that have been coming back light are due to the fact that they just chalked out. There are some nice ones posted that do include chalk.

Congrats on hitting your last four pick fours at the big A. But honestly, you are probably doing something wrong if you had the one for $1700 and are still down 50 bucks............................

nah they have all been chalk city....singles and then spread deeper on the other legs to try to catch a price to no avail with some even money nag crossing the wire first...

just doesnt seem like it use to be at aq when i started playing with steve a few years back...maybe its just a bad memory though

I don't need to look at the charts to know that the .50 minimum has nothing at all to do with low payoffs. If anything the .50 wager creates better value for the low end payoffs when the favorites run well.

I'm just guessing you're spreading too broad and unable to pinpoint one or two singles.
