Grand River (Matinee card), Monday, 8/4/25 Belles & Waterloo Final

[JT]

When I was working I would travel every week and hit virtually every track in the country. Typical bet was $50 to win and $20 exactas if I had any. Also $20 dds.

Now I have unexpected family expenses and retired.  Bets dwindled to 2 to 10 dollars per race.

I understand.. but #1 you are here and#2 you can still play..Everyone has something going on with family issues, its rough. My go to bet when I was younger and broke were $5 exactas and $1tri keys.. now it's mostly pick 5's with a few tris or supers thrown in. I grew up going to Scioto all the time, 30 minutes from my house. Now I live in Delaware 5 minutes from the LBJ, but will go to Scioto a few times a year. I definitely bet more now, seeing as you can off your phone. I downloaded the tvg app during covid and it's been all downhill since then lol.

Pocono race 4   p3  138/367/7

I can see what Trigger and others play exotics they are receiving a rebate

I'm my own CAW 

Last week wagers were $5418 (Mo - Sun).

Now I have a 50 page or so rebate % document listing every track, every conceivable wager if they are stand alone wagers, futures....  Ultimately the computer figures it out, I don't have the time, but I spot checked, it's accurate.

Guessing it will be shy of $400 Tue and that is a VIP rate - but I'm usually surprised and it's more.  Believe me I'm very, very low on the VIP totem pole.

race 9 Grand River

the obvious lineup is 5-2 and that what I usually would play cold, but this one doesn't figure to pay much more than $4 since the after the bell action will destroy the price if it does line up that way--no bet no value

I often try to find an alternative when looking to play these short numpers-but I cannot endorse any other combination

next study is race 2 Hastings

good luck JT ....get at least one price

At lease they did not put the chalk up at Finger Lakes. This helps a bit JT. Baez looking over his shoulder makes him his own worst enemy.

[Trigger]

What a stupid fucking inquiry.

If anything the 3 pinballed 2 horses and no inquiry on him.

At least 4-1 ml.

also a little help that #6 was technically the 3rd choice at 4/1

as JT said--he easily could collect and lose if its gets real ugly

two more shots

[JT]

Sorry fellas the site is acting up again. 4000 bots will do that. I'm not working today, start a new job tomorrow. Thanks for the well wishes. Yes that was a dumb inquiry. The 6 staying up helps a little. Got to fade the 2 and 5 in race 4 and get the 1or 7 home

My will pays are gonna be ugly lol. Like I said when I posted the bet, it very well might win, but lose lol. 1,2,4,5,7 is a loss some more then others..3,6and 8 are winners. #1 would be quite ugly.. it's the risk ya take. I've had it go the other way and a couple bombs come in and it pays massive.. especially there at The Finger
