Race 2 - P3

2 - 3,6,10
3 - 3,4,9
4 - 5,6,8 paid $173.50


$27 total invested, so the parlay (if I am doing this correctly would be)

2: $9 win on 3,6,10 = $13.50 returned
3: $4 win on 3,4,9 = $28 returned
4: $9 win on 5,6,8 = $145 returned

I don't think you figure it based on 27 on the winner in the first because you are cutting it into a 1/3 but I could be wrong...

This is your accountant? Jesus.

Unless I'm misunderstanding something, this isn't rocket science. Take half the price that the first winner paid, multiply it by the second winner's price. Divide that by two, multiply that by the third winner's price. If you played it for $2, there's your parlay amount. If you played it for $1, divide that number in half and there's your parlay amount.

Again, they are looking at the $2 cold parlay, I was looking at the total invested parlay, there is a difference

Which is the same number kgb came up with....

Hell no, he's not my accountant, but he's usually good at crunching horse related numbers.

Maybe the big Indian chick threw him off his game today.
