For the 2017 BCBC, a $2,500 buy-in and $7,500 betting bankroll ($10,000 total) is required of each player. All buy-in monies are applied to the prize pool. Players can bet into the Win, Place, Show, Exacta, Trifecta and Daily Double pools with their $7,500 bankroll over the two days and keep all monies earned from their betting. The estimated $1 Million Prize Pool is based on 400 players.
Last year’s BCBC winner was Joey Appelbaum of New York City, who bankrolled a $13,000 exacta wager on Arrogate and California Chrome in the Breeders’ Cup Classic to take the crown and a record winning prize of $364,000. A total of 396 players participated in the 2016 tournament.
