You didn't blow it....you're just being honest. Hitting Pick-3s when your third choice wins two of the legs is not that easy ( to say the least ). It's not easy to make money in races when your top choice doesn't run at least second.

I hope you made money in the 2nd race. You were particularly smart there.

Thanks Andy. I didn't beat myself up too bad, but I still felt like I missed a good opportunity since I'm on a hot streak. But you're exactly right. I'm gonna remember that one when I miss on down the road.

I did bet the second, exacta and tri. Felt pretty good!

We actually landed on a few similar horses yesterday and today. I fooled around with the 2 in the first ( at 60:1 ) for the same reasons as you I imagine. Had the super for a few dimes so I made pennies. I liked the 9 horse in the 5th a lot as well. I realized the winner was dangerous, so once again made a little, but that horse was a strong play for me.

I got a little lucky late. I hated that Ward favorite in the 6th and stabbed around with the winner and got a fortunate result.

I didn't. I singled the 3 in the 3rd. I should have spread a little further in that leg. Regardless, you deffinatly have a feel right now, very nice.

Great job so far! Keep it up! I love the old Dueling Grounds, very fun track to 'cap and watch.

Kind of a dumb question, but.....

Can anyone explain to me why they show .10 super payouts, but you can't bet them? I use Xpressbet, I'm guessing that has something to do with it. Not complaining, because I may not have hit the tri if I could have bet the supers, just curious. I live in PA, and can only bet that track via phone also, for whatever reason.

Thanks in advance to anyone who can answer.

They accept these at the track; probably why they are showing the payouts.

ATL,
You have to select the wager 1st with expressbet. The $.10 amount can not be entered. If you hit the super button for type of wager and then change the amount it should pop up for you.
Hope that helps.

3k, thanks, but that's not it. I'm in PA, so I can only wager by phone, I had a live teller tell me the .10 wasn't an option. Prob just some goofy rule with XPB.

Thanks again for the help though guys.

Continued luck to all with their wagers.
