Question

If i bet $5 on Hard spun to show in the derby what would be my payout?

Answer 1

$17.50

Answer 2

$17.50 is right....but the way you figure it out is simple....divide the amount bet by two! so $5 bet equals 2.5 and then multiply that by the posted amount which was $7.....so basically you had 2.5 tickets to show on #8 hard spun which = $7 + $7 = $3.50 = $17

hope that helps for any future bets.

p.s.

bet him again in the preakness!!!

Answer 3

if you bet only 5 dollars on the derby. you can't  afford to bet.

Answer 4

payout for Hard Spun to show was $7.  I don't know if you multiply it by 5 for your $5 bet.  but at least it was more information that you had before.
