### - just lookin' at del mar track and their betting etc..
https://www.dmtc.com/handicapping/wagering
they gots a pick-6 and a pick 5, which is cool, only you can't also bet on
the smaller bets in between on the same ticket? (no multiple combination
bets!) they're also only for a pool rather than based on their accumulated
sp's (don't like that...) AND it costs $2!? (wouldn't ever put more than
50c on a 6-fold unless they were all favourites, wouldn't need to!)
have a look at how it is online however...

this is Ascot (uk) today... (you wont be allowed to bet here so it's just
for fun)
so just for fun pick any 5 horses from 5 races and have a play around with
the resulting combination bets that appear on the right...
i.e., you've gots 1 accumulator (all 5) which you can also back for a
place (e.g. 50p each way)
then there's the 10-doubles (never bothers with them unless there's some
big sp's in the line up)
10-trebles at say 10p per = £1.00
5 4-folds at say 30p - £1.50
total bet = £3.50 + they show the amounts for each bet if all 5 win...
the higher the odds the less you have to lay out
e.g., all good sp's? 10p each way accumulator = 20p
10 x 0.05p trebles = 50p
5 x 10p 4-folds = 50p
total 3 bets = £1.20
plus they shows ya how much you'll likely win...
so, ever thought of moving to the state of nevada?
(grinz...) ;)
