(Gambling) Blinded By Anger
« on: February 24, 2026, 12:25:21 AM »
I learned a valuable lesson and reminder today and y'all better listen up, as I'm sure it's happened to all of us, and let's all please avoid it.

Whether you gamble, or are doing anything else, if you get VERY ANGRY - please make sure everything you're do going forward in decision making gets your complete focus and check again what you're doing for mistakes and accuracy.

Monday, 2/23/26, Mohawk Raceway.

I had all my handicapping done before the card.

7th race I went nuts because of losing to #7 Supa Fast whose driver was all out, and was pissed as hell at McNair for getting blindsided with the #1 Aragonite.

8th race I'm still fuming from before now at no urging by JJ on the 4 while the 3 & 6 two longshots were getting lit up by their drivers.

9th race I'm already ready to kill, I put a super wager for 2/3/a/a rather than 1/2/a/a.  The mistake won ($8.40 wagered $639.90 won). 

10th race while I put the hi5 in earlier, I added a tri, exacta, win and while I intended to add the super box (4,5,6,7,10) too I added another hi5 wager instead and no super at all.  The mistake lost ($24 wagered $0 won and my winner would of paid $179.38)

Being on the winning end of a mistake is not a complaint, but two consecutive races on very speculative wagers, and both were royally screwed up!  angbk
