Again, you have to circuitize it. Something like this would only be worthwhile in California, you probably get about 20 opportunies a year in California for a 1 million dollar pot, if you got 10k as your starting bankroll, you would have 20 $500 tickets....

Now, I wouldn't recommend just doing $500 tickets but it is the idea that you really would only need 10 people at 1k a piece

That makes sense. Plus CA has those guaranteed $1mm pick 6 pools. I would want to stick to only 3 venues--NY, CA and Churchill (put Churchill rarely gets to a $100k carryover).

Only day Churchill is worthwhile is the day after the Derby, there is serious value the day after if there was a pick six carryover.....Card is usually pretty weak because everyone tried to run Derby week.

It was done before a long time ago on ESPN message board with Byk running it if I remember correctly.....I think they went after a large Pick 6 carryover...

we put something small together for the magna 5 series and it didnt seem to be a major issue. i think there were only maybe 8 guys at 200 a pop. i would be interested in a group effort.

I'd be interested, but handicapping wise I'm only worthwhile in NY or KY. Cal, forgetaboutit.

Can't do NY, 500k pools pay 3k but I guess you can because you get a 20/1 and it pays 40k

This is about the stupidest idea I have ever heard of.

From a purely logistical standpoint of course.






Oh it's stupid from any standpoint.

Why not just call out for John Dillinger to hold the money?

Once the group is formed,others will be beating down the door to get inn.It will work,I can tell just by the reaction of some of the members coming on here and saying they want inn.

If you set the bankroll at 10K I would set 1 share at $50 a total of 200 shares and let people buy as many shares as they would like till every share is filled. That would make it so more people can get in on it, also it would make so people can see how it works out before they send more money to the leader. I would not send 1K to someone I have never met, but I would send 50 to 200.

I agree with scavs that California tracks would be the main focus. But there are sometimes other nice carry's, BC day etc.

So you paid? You admitted yourself you did not pay up. Did you forget?
Or just "I will get to it?"

I would feel guilty as hell if I were you. Somewhere along the line people have to be able to trust one another. And then you come along. Dont put up money if you cant pay. Just keep your mouth shut if you cant come through. Everyone on this board should pressure you to DO WHAT IS RIGHT.
