Keep in mind that in order to win the whole Fortune 6 jackpot, you need to be the only winner. That's why there keeps being a huge carryover even though 6 out of 6 get hit every day.
So be careful with this - it's not an ordinary Pick-6.
I suppose the best strategy would be to wait until there's a card with a couple really inscrutable races and pound it then. If it's going to be chalky or even if just 1 or 2 favorites win, chances are there will be more than one winner, so probably best to sit those cards out.
This is an interesting bet - the carryover might hit $500k given how often the favorites come in at Beulah.
Go to their website for the details, but here are the basic rules:
Beulah Park's Fortune 6 is a 25-cent wager for a Pick 6 that will pay out on one unique 25-cent ticket. A consolation will be paid on tickets where multiple players have the highest winning combinations.
