Eddie O

Just heard this on the radio, Blackhawks color commentator Eddie Olczyk hit a Pick Six (in horse betting speak this is picking the winner of 6 consecutive races that are noted by the track) at a California race track for a whopping $500,000 prize.

Pick Six bets often have mathematical overlays and teams of advantage players will attack them in these situations. It is one example of a situation in which you can get the best of the race track. Unfortunately, with the massive amount of combinations for a Pick Six, it takes an enormous amount of bankroll to cover a reasonable amount of combinations and that doesn't guarantee a cash in flow (although it may give you an edge).

Not sure if Eddie O is part of a syndicate or just an occassional horse player who got lucky....either way, nice hit Eddie!
