One man or woman's nightmare, was another man's gain.
However, notice the payout of $183,000. The Rainbow Six consolation only paid $36,659.22 for a 20-cent bet.
This man took a $72 ticket for a dollar. And hit the bet five times. If he took it for twenty cents and he was the only winner - he wins the whole pool.
As Daryl Kaplan put it on twitter.....
Wonder how many others are playing $1 tickets not realizing they are excluding themselves from $1.4 million? @Pullthepocket @jeffporchak

Not only one bettor missed out on a jackpot score of a lifetime. The bettor with this $1 ticket never even had a chance.Note: The Horseplayer Monthly was released today. If you have not read it, it's free, and it's 32 pages of handicapping insight, opinion, and stats. You can get it right here.

I'm more of a novice... can someone explain this further what happened?
I don't understand what really went down here.
to take down the whole pool you have to be the only person with one 20 cent winning ticket, he put the bet in for a $1 which means he had it 5 times, giving himself no shot to take down the whole pool, the dumbass cost himself a million dollars
