Jockey Club -- they don't get it.

[Calzone Lord]

I'd have paid them $200 if they'd just listen to me rant for a few minutes -- and I get very nervous talking to people I don't know.


The baffling thing to me is how little they seem to understand about betting and the behavior of hardcore bettors who think they have an edge.

You get the feeling that if you ask these guys if they'd rather have 10% of Bill Gates net worth or 22% of RandallScott35's net worth ... they'd take Randall's "because 22% is a lot more than 10%!"


You had 20 different men who each bet at least $10,000 a day in the ring at Sheepshead Bay racetrack in 1895 ... 10K from the year 1895 - adjusted for inflation - would equal a pretty large number today.
