Looks like the two old guys just aged a bit more....

So much for perfection...

Yeah that wasnt pretty at all. Oh well, I guess it is time for another streak for them.

PSH 06-22-2006 12:21 PM

Sorry to hear bout that. I left it alone. I was on my way out there for lunch and was thinking the odds wouldn't be worth the measly 2 bits I was going to bet. I saw 2-1 and was pissed. Was rooting for you guys though. :(

Anybody know what Calvin's record has been since he rode the winner in the Stephen Foster? I was just wondering if he was heating up any? Not that he was all that bad, just w/ the rise of J Lep and Rafy, he has not been looked at by the locals as much. I guess he hasn't really had many mounts since then, but I'm watching him, he may get real hot.

Not that I ever believe your funny story about 2 made up guys or your really betting $2500 on the horse, but if there was a 1% chance you are actually telling the truth, which I know there isn't, nobody bet $7500 on that horse. With a minute to go only $7000 was in his win pool and there was no late money. So while it is likely you are full of crap, if you actually did bet $2500 on the horse, your $2500 is in their pocket. Cute story though about guys winning 30 races in a row. But I don't think even people on a chat room bought that one. Try something like 8 out of 9 next time. That atleast is a little believable. I actually lost $150 on him instead of $250 because I like the horse in the 3rd better. Real story. Something you don't get much of here. LOL.

Very little was in the win pool and nobody ever made a large bet on the horse. For his sake and his $2500, I hope he was lying. The 30 out of 31 races or whatever it was, was pretty funny though. I have heard some good lies, as can be expected from gamblers, but that was the funniest one I ever heard.

Scav 06-22-2006 12:53 PM

Euro is a good dude, don't really care either way but I don't think he is full of it

Scav 06-22-2006 12:54 PM

also, keep in mind that this wager was 'most likely' put through off shore, becuase if you put $7500 into any US pool, it will show up, at any track.....

GPK 06-22-2006 12:55 PM

there was $58,813 in the win pool for the 1st at Church today.

#1 $20,261 7/5
#2 $8,416 9/2
#3 $3,979 11/1
#4 $3,588 12/1
#5 $7,696 5/1
#6 $12,774 5/2
#7 $2,096 22/1

This was straight from Youbet.com

There was $17,000 total. Nothing unusual in the last minute. I guess they could have bet in $500 bundles but guys betting that type of money bet all at once in the last minute. I might have bought the story without the 30 for 31.

Scav 06-22-2006 12:57 PM

Exceller, how do you miss almost 42k in the win pool

I am a money watcher. Watch it very closely on TVG. I didn't miss anything. There was 49,000 in the total win pool. The usual amount of money came in for the last minute.

Trust me, nobody bet $7500 on any horse in the last minute. The odds barely move. Money was distributed just like any normal race. If you really believe this cute story about 2 old guys winner 30 out of 31, I have a bridge to sell you. I actually lost a few bucks on the horse.

New Awakenings in the 3rd is the chalky favorite though that they should have bet if they really existed.

Scav 06-22-2006 01:03 PM

Again, this wager most likely was put through offshore, at least if I was betting that kind of money, that is where I would be putting it

If you didn't believe the story, then why did you bet? Stop whining about it and take responsiblity for your own handicapping.
