Last weekend (Feb. 12-13) was the third straight that saw total handle exceed the $7-million plateau at The Meadowlands – a lofty level reached three times during all of 2020 – and much of the recent wild wagering at the mile oval is due to the popularity of the track s low 15 percent takeout bets.
The Big M has seen great results since changing the Hi-5/Pentafecta format. Formerly, it was a 20-cent base with a jackpot , meaning it paid out only when there was one winning ticket. The response has been vigorous since management changed it to a 10-cent base that pays out on all winning tickets.
