yes i thought you put that in your 1st thread when you started the contests mikeca, didnt you?

**mikemca** · 02-01-11, 02:52 PM

We never had a cap but it is certainly something to discuss

**Gremlin Lad** · 02-01-11, 02:52 PM

Rolling with ELEVEN in Contest. Fabulous !

**Gremlin Lad** · 02-01-11, 02:54 PM

NO CAPPING.. Payoff is fine at what $2 Win, $2 Place pays off on track. there is no real $$ involved here.

**joeyp1222** · 02-01-11, 03:02 PM

just wondering, no problem here

**joeyp1222** · 02-01-11, 03:04 PM

You cap a payout on win at certain odds, what do you use as $$$ for the place pay-off ?

Now you are getting into some math and percentages. which you could put the wrong amount in and another player loses by 20 cents because of plugging in computed payouts.

Stay at track price payouts is the only fair way in this contest.

Gremlin Lad $50.20 after only 2 races!!

Nice picks gremlin lad on the 1st 2 races

**Gremlin Lad** · 02-01-11, 04:45 PM

TonyP... Race 6 Both of your picks are scratched. You get Post Time Favorite. My question is for Mikemca. Race 6 is this Best Bet, but they are both scratched. He has an alternate Best Bet later. Which will be used for grading in this instance. (?)

Thanks

Thanks TonyP. Anne caught my eye in a later race, so I just used her in the early double hoping to connect on one of her mounts. But she battled to win both races !!

**mikemca** · 02-01-11, 04:50 PM

Since he listed an alternate Best bet then the alt bb will be his best.

**TonyP** · 02-01-11, 05:11 PM

glad I didnt get shutout lol with the post time fave.
