Pure Incentive
 

is she a lock? In any case my whole life for this Monday hinges on her winning

no locks on the turf...too many bad luck trips

insanity:

doing something the same way, but expecting a different result.

no lock but that last was against males and now she's back against females and with the drop in class seems like a good single in the p4.

can anyone tell me what the **** happened this time god dammit mother****er life of mine, I was at work, and let out a mother****er when i logged on to see the results.

I mean god dammit what the ****

i knew that god damn bitch would lose the minute I sent that bet in

what happened how did it lose, the stupid ****in horse with that French bastard riding

Seattle, I know it's been said before, but:

1. STOP betting
2. Get help

Of course the would go 26 and change when the bitch is a closer, ONLY WHEN I ****ING BET IT

god is funny

only these ****ing races go 26 n change when i single the 3-5 shot every god damn time

I mean im finished, im totally ruined. What I did to get this money to play the pk 6 at the spa, im ****ing crushed

i would of been alive to the 1,3,5,7 and in the last 7,8,9,11

this ****ing 5 out of 6 has to at least pay over a grand or else I dont know what the **** im gonna do

so true...great line.

anyone remember the movie 'less than zero'(andrew mccarthy, robert downey jr? it suddenly came to mind for some reason.......

I seriously hope this guy is joking. If not, he needs to stop gambling. I never feel sorry for people but this guy has lost it. And stop calling horses, "it". Kenny Mayne does that and I want to strangle him.

Get some help man. Take up golf or something. You will never win gambling.

Though I could care less, I think he's just full of sh1t. Spoiled rich kid of 25 or 28 years old who never really has ever needed to put it all together.

Frankly it's a better story if he's telling the truth.

Jerry,

You have shared your problems concerning gambling on this board as well as espn on more then one occasion. You have also shared how you are so thankful that there are loved ones in your life who have put their trust and love in you to do right, to make the changes necessary so you can have a good quality of life.

According to what you have said previous on this thread you don't care. Nuff said. My friend, I have been in a similar situation albeit that I don't know how much of what you say is the truth anymore.

If you are telling the truth, you will no doubt hit a bottom you will never forget. You will be like me a couple years ago living in my 1994 Old Cutlass Supreme with 225,000 miles on it in the dead of winter in the Ohio cold sleeping in a Truck Stop cause it was too cold to sleep in my car because I was too embaressed to come home and say I blew another check on horses and booze. Then, when management asks you too leave cause after a while they figure out you are not a truck driver you are forced to go elswhere.

Where will you go Jerry? Sharing personal things on a board like this is good at times and bad at times. Time for you to be dropped off at a homeless shelter for a while and get a grip of reality face first. Or maybe a jail cell? I don't know, but I do know that if I lived in Seattle and you called me to bail you out I would decline, all in the hopes you would see the big picture down the road years to come.

Tough luck / tough love. 25 years young / 25 years old - you asked for this because you shared it.

ill be ok but I will just be broke all the time, gotta win sometime. Still got 719 for 5 out of 6, gonna go play what races are left when i get home

fortunately for me Curt, ill always somewhere to live and ill have no problem with money as long as I continue to work.

Comedy gold. :p

Jerry although Pure Incentive seemed like a logical winner, I have lectured you about 1000 times never to send it in on a pure closer in a paceless race. Turf especially is all about the pace. There wasn't any in that race and once the 1/4 was over with, so was Pure Incentive.
You need to get a grip. And mommy and daddy won't always be there to bail you out. You ain't the Rockefellers. For a guy to bet a grand(more than you make in a week's pay) on a ****ing pik-6 is pure insanity. To get mad when you lose on is even more insane. Its like the hardest bet in the world to hit.
Grow the **** up will you? I'm losing patience with your repeating the same mistakes for years and years. Its like you have no desire to learn and straighten up.

Its your fault by not responding to me in time, by the way ill probably make 1480 every two weeks before taxes, so i make around 1100-1200 a check, and yes same bs applies with my parents. I gotta pay for cable, cell phone, and an additional 200 for "rent". PLUS i gotta send some money to my cousins baby daughter who happens to be my goddaughter who lives in the PHilippines.

so in other words Oracle is right when he says you are betting more than you make in one week (not one paycheck). That's bright...keep that up, should get you far in life.

I'm an equal opportunity basher, Pais, friend or not. Jerry, paying "rent" at age 25 is something that everyone her has done or does, its just a given and taken for granted. 200 bucks a month? You gotta be kidding me. So basically you pay 200 bucks a month for a heated room with an all you can eat buffet upstairs. Cry me a ****ing river will you?
Its time to grow up Jerry. Long past time at that.

Or what he should try to do is take that same paycheck--plus or minus, and multiply his rent by five and add in a few other bills like utilities (that I guess he doesn't pay) then add a horse, car , student loan, credit card, dog--like I do every month. And see if he can survive?

]horse--i was gonna buy a share of one but that fell through
car--theres a mercedes and bmw in the driveway but I dont drive, although i was trying to impress a girl and let her drive the BMW luckily the damage was minimal, there was a range rover but god rid of that
student loan--parents paid for tuition
dog--lil bro just paid for vet bill

i dont post very often but this is ridiculous. this kid craves attention. im not convinced any of this is even really occurring. this is a daily thing.......same big bets on 1/5 shots.....same losses....same ill never do this again....same cry and whine......this is just silly. i dont think anybody should be taking this as any more then some comedic relief. end of story imo.

This is getting better than the big spender soap opera guy we had on the espn board. Seatle types better tho.

I wish this was comic relief, but welcome to my life

Tanner,
I have been talking to Seattle for a long time. Hes quite serious, thats why its not funny but sad.

I'll repeat my advice to this immature adult.

Go spend a couple hours in the waiting room of a pediatric cancer facility.

You do not have any problems you cannot solve.

If you have the balls to wager a week's pay on a horse race, then you should have the nerve to do this.

You will walk out a changed man (or boy).

Seattle, my advice to you is keep betting, its the only way your going to get out of your mess. Try the Pirates Bounty at Delmar tomorrow. Intriguing betting race.

what do you call it NYRA University? smiley face is in order:D

i'll holla at you via private messenger. just trying to be a friend if you will because i see the signs in what you say and don't want you to have to go thru what i did.

Curt,
You just said a whole lot.
For those that want to make money in horse racing:
1) Don't become an "over your head" bettor.
2) Don't become an owner, unless you can afford top stock and all the rest.
3) Don't become a breeder...see above.
4) Don't become a trainer unless you have the owners that can afford you, even then, sometimes they can't...so get ready to eat it when despite your best efforts, the horse isn't there.

Here's how to succeed:
5) Sell hay and feed to the barns. Win or lose, those critters have to eat.
6) Equine medications...though most vets have their own supplies. Find one or two from French labs that tests haven't been devised for yet.
7) Invest in carrots that you can mark up to "visitors" on the back stretch.
8) Trucking these critters is also a good option, just pass on a surcharge for the extra cost of gas/deisel.
9) Find a use for all the manure. Mushroom farming (mycology) is a growth market.
10) Raise rabbits. They grow faster on hay and have better market value, especially to the French restaurants where you can sell the mushrooms.
