Default Brag: Hit the Kentucky Derby Trifecta

Beat: Lost $9,900

http://blog.sportscolumn.com/story/2...Kentucky_Derby

"On the day of the Kentucky Derby, a Rochester, NY, man walked into an OTB and asked how much it would cost to buy every possible trifecta combination. The man was told the answer and came back to place the wagers. It cost him a total of $13,680 for his $2 trifectas and he wound up winning... wait for it... wait for it... $440."

He clearly had a huge prop-bet with someone else about whether or not he could hit the trifecta.

Who would pass up a $100k even-money sidebet against someone hitting the trifecta? Perfect hustle, this man is a genius.
