While it is a crapshoot.It is an educated crapshoot.Meaning educated bets as you also do in poker.The only other thing I wager on heavily.

I kinda figured the redboard king wouldn't play but surprised no one else wants to play.

Sounds good hopefully a few more will be in.I don't see why it has to be limited to 1 track.I don't have a problem with anyone doing 10 races from different cards

I think exotics allow us to look back and see if they are more valuable than the players who just do win bets.You can win doiing just win bets as it is less variance than exactas.
