This is definitely a problem sometimes, jpops. I try to not cut it too close on beating what I consider "fair odds". I would not take 6-1 on a horse I pegged at 5-1, for example. It would have to be at least 7-1 with 1-2 minutes to post.
Still, I've had times when the final odds dipped below what I considered fair, and I regretted the bet.
