But dont you just love the guy who is @ the window... and looks @ the odds...and says...."" the five,....... [ looks]......... the eight...........
.....[ looks]............. the two...............[ looks]........... and then says..
""what did I tell you allready ""?........then says..... First race @ meadowlands ...which has a post in 5 hours.. from Now..!

Why do people wait to place a bet just a few minutes before the post anyway? I find it hard to believe everytime you get shut out the race you were going play hits everytime the way you bet it. Sometimes I say to myself hey he saved me money. I bet when most people get shut out they bitch,cry moan, and complain. On the flip side after being shut out have you ever went up to someone and thanked them for saving you money? Bet early on sure bets people, please for the love of god. They're betting just like everyone else so quit your crying. It's just like leaving home during rush hour to make it to an important event, leave early to make sure you make it on time.

everyone gripes when they lose. No complaints when they win. Love when someone hits a signer tri and bitches "I could have had the super!", and I could have been Bill Gates' kid. And they'll say only if Daddy didn't give the money away to prevent human breeding.... Woulda, Coulda, Shoulda.... Nature of the game!!!!
Play dime supers and spread out.....
I don't intead I play pic 3's, 4's with the rest of the "good" cappers but "you can't fix stupid!"
