It's not like I'm short on pearls, since I cleared the event dailies and also had some left from yesterday. So I put 100 on Yulan and 30 on each of the other girls.

Admittedly, I could've spread out my bets differently to make a specific win regardles of who'd win, like:
10 on Yulan (*100, payout: 1,000)
20 on Priscilla (*50, payout: 1,000)
33 on Hollyhock (*30, payout: 990)
50 on Southern Cross (*20, payout 1,000)
100 on Aster (*10, payout 1,000)

Total cost would be 213 pearls, where I invested 220 pearls now.
But, 1,000 cocktails isn't too much compared to what I gather on a day, so I think spreading out the investment more evenly would yield better winnings.
Placing 40 pearls on each girl would yield:
Yulan: 4,000
Priscilla: 2,000
Hollyhock: 1,200
Southern Cross: 800
Aster: 400

Betting 100 pearls on the top 2 girls for each race would probably be more profitable in the long run than betting any pearls at all on the last two girls.

i bet 100 on yulan today and 20 on the other girls.
if she wins tomorrow, we might got it and if not, this event will cost me some FG -.-

Yup, and because of the format, we can't wait for some whale to test the outcome to copy his/her results.

It was so popular that DMM changed it to be easy to predict the winner every time.

There are predictions by various characters. If you can't be bothered to interpret them, the game also tells you who everyone else is betting on.

Huh, neat. I placed everything into Setaria before seeing the wiki page; guess those bets weren't wasted.
