ArlJim, I understand what you are saying, but I actually email these selections to a few people that play my selections. Some of them play with limited bankrolls and some of them play with more at stake. I don't want to multiple my selections up to 10 times the amount to someone that usually doesn't play that much. I leave it up to the person to determine what amount they want to wager. When you have $ figure in front it sometimes throws people off for some reason. I know you probably think it is confusing, but I've been doing it for awhile and people seem to like it.

For example, yesterday's 9th race at Ellis Park I would not recommend to the player with a small bankroll because of the risk involved. Obviously a 3-5 shot is not what they are looking for. I know a few people that like to jump on a sure thing and I felt very confident about his chances.

Thanks, Bogey

I guess what ever works for you. I just don't see what is confusing about giving all your selections in dollar increments and then the user can take it from there based on their bankroll.

FYI, I used Suave yesterday to anchor a nice P3.

going back to arl today for more fun,
good luck

Thanks 1st Sat, I'm glad somebody does. I'm glad some of us are on the same wavelength. LOL

Bogey,

I think the wavelength is longer than you think.
