Maybe I am wrong
The entire concept of the wager should make betting stagnate, but it doesn't. People who are already ignoring 52% takeout and lottery odds aren't going to be deterred by a few tough sequences being covered.

I hope you're right, because I don't want to wait until closing day to have that shot at a huge mandatory payout pool, but I think the higher the jackpot goes, the better it is for Gulfstream.
