We run a fair number of Exacta tourneys around here, but only once a year can you play one with (at least) $50,000 on the line. Welcome to Exacta Extravaganza weekend!
Longshots in mythical-money tourneys are like determined bidders at an auction. When there’s just one present, then that one dominates. When there’s more than one, then all hell can break loose.
The Pegasus World Cup Betting Championship will be back in 2023 (on January 28), and you can win a $6,000 entry for it—plus a $500 travel stipend—for $384 this Sunday when we offer our first qualifier to the prestigious live-bankroll competition.
