My friend got to Vegas and he said it's about bringing in the long shots, hardly ever played chalk.

As to your post, I suck at handicapping too most all the time.

I know there's a few here that have done well on contests so they can add something more than I.

Phil can out handicap me blindfolded and if I knew the winners in advance. For me, it was just getting hot at the right time.

Bob's exactly right. One day it will click and you'll roll. For the longest time I was very annoyed because you almost feel like the winners of these things are just throwing a bunch of junk at the wall and hoping it sticks.

Keep on it and it'll happen.

I really hate the $2 WP format. Lone Star has a very good one with Ex, Tris, Supers, and WPS bets as part of thier contest. I came second this year back in april.
