I've been betting a few trifectas here and there, and have experienced miserable results. When I do win (maybe 1 out of ten -- probably worse than that now that I think of it), it usually pays something awful like $17.50, not the hundreds or thousands of dollars that I imagined when I started betting.
Do you guys play exotics? Do you ever win some serious $? How and when do you place an exotic bet?
