Public service announcement: If you think you've found a way to outsmart the house at your local racetrack or off-track betting facility, trust me, they've already thought of it. So when a man walked into an off-track betting place and wagered $2 on every possible Kentucky Derby trifecta, he may have thought he had come up with a way to beat the system, but he hadn't. Picking the trifecta -- the top three horses in order -- is hard, and it pays off handsomely, but not so handsomely that you can guarantee a profit just by picking all the combinations.
Overall, the man paid $13,680 to bet every possible Derby trifecta. But with three of the top four betting choices -- Street Sense, Hard Spun and Curlin -- finishing 1-2-3, the $2 trifecta paid $440. He came out down $13,240.
