Strong Return on Investment

At Belmont last weekend, I hit an exacta that paid $134. Not bad. But nothing compared to this woman, who put ten cents down on a superfecta (first four horses in order) and won $21,584. Though really, she bet two ten-cent superfectas, so I guess her return was $21,583.90. Still, pretty good.

The race was run in California, but the woman bet on a simulcast of it in Swartz Creek, Michigan. So, you know, if you're betting dimes on superfectas in Swartz Creek, you probably deserve a few grand to take your mind off things.
