DIAMOND DAVE: Followers of Dave Little cashed plenty of tickets Saturday (May 30) evening, featuring some attractive payouts.
The Big M TV veteran gave out the Early Pick-4, which paid $193, but Little suggested a $1 base-bet ticket (total investment, $36), which resulted in his fans cashing in for $386. He then completed a Pick-4 sweep, by giving out the version that spans races 10 through 13, cashing in for $70.70 after another $1 base bet (investment, $36).
Finally, his biggest hit came when he touted a 9-1 winner in the 13th race (Marcus Seelster, $20.40) and a 14-1 chance in the 14th (Lunatic Fringe, $30.20). “Little’s Late Double” returned $149, but if you played along with the regular simulcast show host, you cashed in big, for a total of $447, after he mapped out a $6 base-bet play (investment, $36).
