EAST RUTHERFORD, NJ – Meadowlands
players interested in a possible windfall will be waiting impatiently for
Saturday (Oct. 24) night’s third race, as a two-day carryover in the 20-cent
Pick-6 has led Big M management to put a sizeable guarantee on the pool.
On Friday night, a 24-1 shot kicked
off the wager, and two races later, a 46-1 bomb fell on the mile oval. After
3-5 favorite Skyway Kon Man won the payoff leg, those holding tickets with five
winners cashed in for $51.58, leaving a carryover of just over $13,000, which
will at worst double for Saturday night’s third race, since the pool will be
guaranteed at $25,000.
The 20-cent Pick-6 is one of seven
wagers at The Big M that offer a low 15 percent takeout.
