Title: Uh oh.
Post by: onward800 on November 15, 2023, 07:13:05 PM
The AI engines making bets for CAWs discovered the the ALL button. Once you start doing that it\'s hard to go back. $750,00 bet into CD HI 5 pool. $20 unit bet using ALL x ALL x ALL x ALL X ALL. $950,00 and $1,000,000 bet into superfecta pools at Monticello and Meadowlands superfecta pools. Or maybe AI is devolping a perverse sense of humor.

It might not have been the work of a super smart AI and deep pockets CAW. It might have been an observant 10 cent super bettor. Apparently, if you used the ALL button on supers and tris and Hi 5s at Fan Duel, you were only charged the amount of the base bet not the combination amount. A $.10 ALL,ALL,ALL,ALL super cost $.10! Naturally, the bettor had to see what would happen if he made the base amount $20. He got noticed. Interesting story. I hope all the details come out. Incredible if that\'s really the way it went down.

Interested me. In a scary way.

That’s one of the fascinating things about this sport and this game. It can get really really weird.
