Maybe that mythical play ain't dead yet: According to the early pick-four probables on the NYRA website, NOBODY PICKED FOUR if the 4,7,8 or 11 wins the 5th. So the mythical play would get seven 3-out-of-4's with the 4, 7 or 8. Sweet.
The other probable payouts are:
2: $61,231
5: $69,978
1: $122,462
3,6,9,10,12: $163,282
Just for the record, an all-alll-all-all would have cost a mere $14,256. See what happens when you get cheap and start shaving horses off your mythical tickets?
