I think Gulfstream should call it "The Perfect Dime"
Using the word perfect is probably a good idea since you essentially need everything perfect to hit it. You have to be the only one with the correct combo to scrap the whole pool...

The "I wouldn't even play it with your dime pick six."

Because I won't play it.

Ritvo mentioned that the word and concept of "Perfect" and "Perfect Ticket" had been figuring in some of the discussion...

I don't think it is ridiculous. They are trying something new. And I think it might have the possibility to really pay something considering that for it to really pay, you will have to be the only one to have the correct numbers.

Old timers and P6 purists won't like it, but where is the P6 really relevant anyways besides California and sometimes NY when they get a three day carry.

the "perfect" element of this is the part that makes it dumb....pay out the pool to the winners....the perfect element makes it go on forever and the only day that will be worth it will be closing day

It isn't dumb, it is REALLY rewarding someone that gets it right, when no one else gets it, within a pool that people can care less about down in Florida.

The Old P6 accounted for less then .5% of total handle at Gulfstream

People just want to pile on because its Magna
