Do the math before crying!

The pick 3 pool was $7751 at this cess pool (Miff) with a 23% takeout leaving $5,968 in payouts, the pick 3 paid $262 for $2 a whooping $45 in tickets took out the pool with an entry in the first leg and the leading jock in the last leg.

Parlay is $60 for 50 cents.

You got 65.

Not great and less than what you normally would get (Math handicapper has covered this before, but the mean is something like 20 percent over parlay)

Pick-3\'s pay less than parlay fairly often.  One paying a few ticks over parlay certainly not noteworthy.
