Default Had Dominus won I would of had a life changing score
I dont know how to deal, i feel like going ape nuts right now. How have you all dealt of missing big money by one horse. I feel like breaking everything in my house and getting into a fight. I am so enraged. Had Dominus won, I would of had the pk 6, as I had all in the race.

It just means your day will come and it's not today. If you had all the other races it means you're a good 'capper and you can do it. Just not today.

Look at it as a test that you CAN hit a P6.

I once put $50 to win on With Distinction.

He lost by around 23.

This was a few years ago and I think these days I wouldn't be laughing like i was back then (at my own ridiculous nature... just because I was such a stupid moron)... I'd be pretty pissed but if the day ever comes where I'm angry? That's when it's time to stop.

It's got to be fun. I can't imagine it not being fun.

I agree with Trackrat but need to add in that maybe, maaaaaaybe you should consider stepping back from it (?).

OR maybe just play some win bets and exactas and take a breather on the big stuff.

I've never (even) hit a pick 4 in my life so cannot imagine coming so close but I hate to see you or anyone so pissed.

You hit the pick 5 which will leave some consolation. I know it wont be near as much as the pick 6 but you can parlay that into tommorows card

If he was leading and ended up beaten by a head, then it's really aggrivating. But honestly, Dominus was well beaten and never a threat to win. Not that it still doesn't sting, but he wasn't even close.
