Yeah its cool when you own all the regions when you call up reserves... but anyone can do that. I'm talking about the trifecta.. when you have the same region reserve 3 times, and can call it up.

Has anyone done it? This is the closest i've gotten.

Very Nice...

I'd call that a Quinella..

Although, I suppose what you had should actually be called a Quinella Box, since you had 3 but only 2 were "in the money"... lol


I'm looking forward to someone posting a true Trifecta...

Somebody out there want to figure out the odds on this,,, it will vary by map of course...

I thought a quinella was a bet type, like an exacta.
