I only have $10 to bet? I'm staying home.....lol

Back in the 70s, there were a few times when I went to jai-alai just to see the games, and didn't bet at all, but I have never played with a bankroll as small as $10.

I think, though, that given that bankroll, I'd look for a good value in the place pool in the early games and try to raise a bit of cash that way. (That assumes that there's enough money in the place pool to make it worthwhile.) With my luck, though, just when I drop my $2 place bet, someone else will bet $10 to place on the same team. If successful, I'd go for some quinellas in the late games. I'm not going in looking for a big score if I'm starting with just $10.
