Not possible, unless Caesar's laid off the action
offshore: there was $1.23 million in the WPS pools
combined, according to the chart, and $360K to win
at $64.60 for $2 is...[u]$11.6 million in winnings[/u].
Not the biggest Whopper I've ever heard, but
pretty impressive! :)
EDIT: Or did Caesars book the action [i]themselves[/i]?
(I've been told of times past when the race and sports
books weren't run by abject cowards. I forgot.)
If Messrs. Allen and Crovo took Caesars for $11M+, that
would be mind-boggling.
