when he breaks in front and opens up, the first flash is 20:1. It stays that way till just before they hit the turn, when he's hit to 16:1.

$42 becomes $34 courtesy of AP and their past posting policy for their WHALES.

nice................

And the focus is all on takeout and drugs.

P.S. McMullen is one SHARP mofo.
Holy crap this cracks me up. I drove through Iowa and Nebraska today, but I managed to stop in Council Bluffs and play a few races, one of which was this one. I had a nice win bet on this horse, and I actually thought of The Fat Man when he crossed the wire, but not in the context of past posting. I thought, man that's why he likes small fields, you can still get value! and here you are bitching about past posting. Nice hit, get over it.

Buy the way, post #10 is my fav. for post of the year.

Value is 20:1 not 16:1. Losing 24% because of late wagering is getting bent over. I'm ****in good enough to pick these horses out YET I need to take less money because the tracks want to extend UNFAIR ADVANTAGES to the WHALES. I pay my takeout, I'm fine with that. I'm not fine with given up the additional 24%. Let's summarize: the whales get to bet late and they get REBATES. I get to play the game the normal way, pay my takeout, and have my bombs reduced 24% on top of it. I can beat the game if it were FAIR for all. I certainly have a tougher time winning if I can't get fair odds, however.

Whales taking advantage of your money.

Jesustapdancingchrist somebody post the pools for that race. Are we talking about $10,000 coming in late or $500?

Paranoia.
