There's a lot of psychological hurdles to overcome, ask yourself if you have no problem calling out a 50 cent pick 4 part wheel that cost 200 bucks but have trepidation calling out a 200 win bet. I can single one horse in a pick something and have the ticket cost 100 or 2, but when it comes time to call out 200 to win, i *feel* like i'm spending too much money on the win bet even though the win bet has more chance to win than the pick something singling the same horse.

Why is that?

Maybe saying the words "two hundred" is a lot tougher than saying "50 cent..." even though that 50 cent bet adds up to 200 itself.

Greatest game in the world, so many ways to get beat, only one way to win.
