Monticello - Thirsty Thursday
« on: March 07, 2024, 10:38:24 AM »
Play my selections --- you may need a drink !   11.chrz

Race 1   #7   part of the wreck/no contest race... made up a LOT of ground

Race 2   #5   Made a strong first up middle move against the 2-5 favorite, held on for place

Race 4   #2   Was a bet back from last week, rode the rail from the 5 hole, little effort

Race 5    #8  got a way last, closed with some interest - another bad post, small bet, probably a bet back next week

Race 8    #4  bad poisition for the entire race
              #7  sat third in mile, winner got away on far turn, shook late but race was already over

Race 4  2 win box 12  p3  12/12/1

Race 5 win box 12  p3  12/1/5

Not feeling good about Monti right now. Seems like lots of predetermined conveyor belt llineups. Sort of like professional wrestling

Race 1   #7   part of the wreck/no contest race... made up a LOT of ground     raced very well missing 3rd by a head, bet back, nearlly impossible shot to reach the favorite on the lead, bet back

Race 2   #5   Made a strong first up middle move against the 2-5 favorite, held on for place  when he pulled he wound up 4th over and behind a wall in the stretch - betback

Race 4   #2   Was a bet back from last week, rode the rail from the 5 hole, little effort   so far, the best finish, and probably the most dissapointing race from my picks so far.... sat a two hole trip and no challenge

Race 5    #8  got a way last, closed with some interest - another bad post, small bet, probably a bet back next week

Race 8    #4  bad poisition for the entire race
              #7  sat third in mile, winner got away on far turn, shook late but race was already over

  • MTP1972: The year I hit that ticket for $5500 which they took out 31% at the window my income was very low that year so I did get back all of it as a refund.

  • MTP1972: I never had enough deductions to itemize so even if I was able to claim my losses it only would have been a small percentage. Thankfully the IRS finally changed the law regarding taxable tickets.

  • MTP1972: One year a long time ago I cashed IRS tickets for some people totaling around $40,000 making around $4000 doing so. I picked up thousands and thousands in losing tickets, kept programs and a daily log of how I did. When I filed my tax return that year and claimed them as losses I was audited by some old fart who didn't know shit. At the end of the audit he said I showed enough proof I lost the money back and he'd submit it in his report. 6 months later I get a notice from IRS saying my proof wasn't good enough and included a tax bill of $12,000, which I never paid because after 10 years they forgave it. Unforunately my state piggybacked on it and sent me a tax biil for $3200 which I disputed and they kept adding on interest and late fees. Finally 2 years later my bill was up to $8000 and they sent a wage attachment to my employer si I got fucked big time.

  • MTP1972: Back at Garden State Harness I hit an $11,000 trifecta for a $1 on a horse, Speedy Wright, driven by Mark Kesmodel paid $11 to win. The exacta paid $60 but a real bomb finished 3rd. Unforunately at that time if your winnings were over $5000 they automatically took out 28% + another 3% for NJ State Tax leaving me with only $3800 from a $5500 ticket.

  • Trigger: On 9/14/91 Yonkers Race 6 I bet a pick 4, put $80 in.  I used like 6 in the first leg, like a perceived dummy as 1/5 shot won.  I hit it and it paid @$9k.  The storyis in the trivia thread here.  Not my biggest score ever, but craziest for sure.

  • MTP1972: I have alot of strategies and theories on multi-race wager s but rarely play them because I hate investing alot and getting knocked out in the 1st leg. I used to play alot of Pick 3's at Meadowlands years ago by beating a heavy favorite in the 1st leg.

  • Trigger: And losing most of my big wagers.
