2010 Kentucky Derby (odds now up)

[Jake]

I stopped at the OTB and bet Super Saver to win. Borel has been on a roll in the Derby and Pletcher has to win one sooner or later. That's as deep as I went with it.

Just made all my bets. They are the following:

WIN
2, 4, 7, 14, 18, 20

EX
2 WITH 1, 6, 20
7 WITH 1, 2, 6, 20
4 WITH 2, 6, 20
18 WITH 1, 2, 6, 20
6 WITH 1, 2, 7, 14, 20

TRI
2, 7, 20 BOX
1, 2, 6, 20 BOX
2, 4, 6, 20 BOX
2, 16, 18, 20 BOX
2, 10, 12, 20 BOX
1, 7, 10, 12 BOX

Would we be nice to finally hit one. I have been so freaking close the last few years.

That reminds me of a couple guys I saw playing roulette in Vegas. They were betting on almost every number each spin and wondered why even though they hit sometimes they were still losing money.

Interesting....with those odds I almost doubled my money.

Great story about the guy from Houston that won a contest with 67,000 entrants, and then was given $100K that he had to put on a Derby horse to win. He picked Super Saver and won $900,000.

I watched that. Turned in the 100k in that gold briefcase. Said they had to give him 40 tickets ($2500) to process the whole bet.

Lucky SOB.

You made 16 bets on this race. You won one of them, the same one I won by making one bet.

Now, about those Red Wings...

Wrong. I also hit the exacta.
