Have TVG folks been ripping Steven Crist?

Let them know about the WinTicket players pool P6 that missed. They would have a heyday with that one...

Let them know what a tremendous job they do with THEIR pick 4 plays and to keep the money in their pockets. I'm yet to see them post a winning ticket worth more than $100 for a buck.

A few weeks ago Shrupp, the smug prick, posted his 50 or less pick 4 and then conveniently showed the viewing audience what he really played...it was $400+. Hit two out of four in the sequence. I really wish he'd go away.

That's hilarious and very typical of him. On-track he posted a big Pick 5 ticket on BC day. I want to say over $300. He singled Jump On In in the 2nd leg and she was something like 20-1 and was nowhere to be found. Typical.

I heard Mr. B say that they get a lot of people telling them that they should play multiple tickets on the TVG SHOWS.He said it would be a bit confusing for the viewers,but he wasn't against multiple tickets.I think too much is made of betting strategies.It usually is just an excuse to bet a lot.Take for instance the late p4 on Sunday(Oak Tree.)The horses in the 1st and 4th legs are not easy to get (even if you go 4 deep.)The horse in the last would be my 4th horse,but the Sadler horse(in the 1st leg) really shouldn't be beating those horses.There are a couple guys that just can't get it done (even if with the quickest horses in the race.) Headley's boy should have retired 3 or 4 years ago.It sounds easy(betting strategies) but really it is always gunna come down to using a slow horse as one of your contenders.It is not easy to do that(no matter your strategy.)

Hell, let him stay around, a free $400 in the pool. The Schrup guarantee it should be called. $400 into a pick four ticket is just ridiculous on a normal day. A day like the BC, I can see the argument, but a normal day, it is stupid, one heavy chalk and you are breaking even.

Very true. Thing is, I don't know that the TVG guys are even breaking even. I really want to look at their picks for a week, and just see how bad they are. Might be a project in the near future...

They never hit, if I had the energy, I would compete against them for a whole meet on their $50 budget, but I can see that being REALLY frustrating.

Matter of fact, I am going to do it, THE LATE P4, I will post a $50 DAILY and try to compete against them for the Hollywood Meet.

I think the budgets are kinda of questionable. $50 is a hard number to get to in a 4 leg sequence. I would bump up the Pick Four to $60 and the Pick Six to $160 if I was TVG.
