Awesome bro!

Pools look healthy today!

Laurel / Preakness ain't the CD / KYD, but not too bad at all!

All my wagers are later on so I'll be your  hvc.1

When your horses see me bouncing in my cheerleading outfit, they'll run at light speed to not see it anymore!   ngc3

Good Luck!  ;D

Gotta love losing in the last stride at Gulfstreamin race 1  to a fucking 44-1 shot with Wesley Henry aboard that had 23 starts and had finished in the top 3 8% of the time

Maiden claimers on the turf is the only lesson I learned.  I love msw only on the dirt.

But nuts...high weight horse, 0/23, Jockey 0% on grass, trainer 3% on grass...horse ran like a seasoned veteran. 

What gives  ngc3

What was in his OATS?  ngc3

Ok Bro, brush all that off...the risk was light comparably to past wagers, good to see you get some practice!

I know you're slingshotting for a big big win that's going to light up the board!  tmbz1

Jokes aside, I take it seriously.

I ran the numbers.

The other two chalk in the 2nd and 4th win, then ALL in 1st, 3rd, and 5th makes it a $288 wager.

And of course have to have the 2nd and 4th winners picked, cold and wagered on.

Your strategy is strong, and $288 lost enough times needs a $18k return.

Did I learn anything, not sure, just that your strategy is smart.

I think it still needs an ALL at the end...the stress is just too much  ngc3

I am kind of like you man..meaning your thread about quitting betting on the ponies..except LBJ week and tbred triple crown, breeders cup cards..maybe a night or 2 a year with the wife at Scioto. . I am getting very jaded, and that is not a good thing. Winning a few hundred bucks does nothing for my bankroll or gets me excited anymore. My strategy is meant for the big score. 4 figures minimum for that. Just something I've been seriously contemplating. I take it seriously to man.. I pull for all the gamblers on here, day by day and year by year that number continues to shrink

I believe in you.

Whatever your process is, it's shown its strength.

If you can crack the Breeders Cup, you should get a television spot.

46 years of this bs is enough for me.

Will have to find happiness, hobbies and if need be scores, elsewhere.

I took your 8 for a ride...

An idle mind can be a dangerous thing.
 I got all sorts of other hobbies.. love to fish, campout and travel.. hang out with the wife,friends and family.
 As far as scores, for me its the baccarat table. The Asian's with loads more money then me and dressed to the nines marvel at my ability in that game.
My process is very simple and any average horseplayer could do it. I look at a pick 5 sequence, pick out 2 of the most likely winners in that sequence.. and spread the rest.
If I think my roi is not enough, or I have any doubt about a single, I don't play it.
I loved that 8, bad m/l.. Good luck tmbz1

Risking money is never a hobby...the fact that it's negligible amounts is the balance.

Amazing what you accomplish with that said, and having a job, family responsibilities and other interests.

I am trimming some shrubs in between races
Power tools and booze don't mix ngc3
I had a feeling Gafflione would win that race..worst possible will pay.
Him and I have a love hate relationship..mor e hate recently
I wish he would of ridden Sweet Rebecca like that 2 weeks ago at Churchill for 9 grand
Yes still bitter about that one ngc3

I handicapped that particular ticket this morning with my cup of coffee  ngc3
A little ammo for tomorrow lost 85 bucks between all 3 tickets

I swore off Mohawk too, it's the only reason I'm betting it, big pools, short memory, and I get a chance to handicap a staged race  ngc3

No luck at Mohawk, p6 alive with a 1/9...should be dead shortly  ngc3

That's great, spending time with your mom!

I hope she hits a big one!

You too!

Definitely photo bomb and give us your colors  ;D

Pick 6.. which track?
She is 80 and probably weighs 80 pounds soaking wet.
The photo bomb will be an early race, she doesn't stay up late ngc3
Her parents, my grandparents..is who got me into racing as a young JT.
They owned quite a few back in the day racing them all over Ohio
