The SUPERFECTA is one of my favorite wager types, and I hope if it wasn't, it will soon be yours too.
Let's see the great benefits and characteristics of this wager:
Whether you're short stacked with cash or not, depending on the track you're looking at a minimum wager from .10, then .20, .50, 1.00. Also if you have the only winning ticket, you sweep the pool. Unlike multi-leg, it's one race and out - check the post-race pools it's formidably bet in comparison to its other competitive wager types.
But we knew all that, sure you did 🙂
____________
Let's start doing some math...
When you see for example a $28.60 payout for a .20 minimum wager, it may not sound so great but it's 28.60 divided by .20 = 143. That means if you won a .20 straight superfecta bet that paid 28.60 you received 143-1 odds. If you used 8 combinations there you divide 143 by 8 =17.875 is your odds, 17-1+ is not bad.
____________
What kind of races should we look for to bet superfectas...
Small fields that have the wager. Uh, yeah, some 5 horse fields you can bet the super. So if you say well this is an easy race it's .20 sup 1/2/3/45 = .40 (2 combos). Let's say that comes in and pays 3.00, well that doesn't seem like a lot of money. Is it for a chalky chalk fest with no seeming value??
Because you got back 3.00 for a .40 bet = 7-1 odds. What if you bet $20 as your base bet ($40 in total) and not .20 cents, well you'd get back $300.
Other type races:
Of course ones where you can eliminate horses.
Ones with solid 1/9, 1/5/ 2/5 odds etc horses so you start with a strong single, and start building a cold, semi cold ticket. I've seen it and so have you, a 1/2 shot say wins and 3 horses in high double digit odds come 2nd 3rd and 4th and it pays $1000+.
___________
Let's say you have 2 long long shots you love how are you going to bet this and box them with everyone so no matter what as long as they both finish anywhere in the 1st, 2nd, 3rd, 4th spot you win.
Here's your algorithm:
Let's call the first long shot #1, the second long shot #2, and the ALL button X
Bets are in this format: first pos - second pos - third pos - forth pos
12 12 x x, 12 x 12 x, 12 x x 12, x x 12 12, x 12 x 12, x 12 12 x
It only took 6 wagers to do it!
Now this is an expensive bet in a 10 horse field, how much will it cost seeking out potential high hundreds or many thousands, total sweep payout for a minimum .20, let's see:
Each wager of the 6 will cost, $22.40. Then 22.40 x 6 =$134.40
If your wagering platform offers the key box feature you can do it in ONE BET, .20 superfecta key box 12 12 x x!!!!!!!
