How much is too much?

The problem with the Presque Isle picks is if you bet $100 to win on every one of them they wouldn't have shown a positive ROI. It's a small pool with very unsophisticated money in it. I don't dispute that DrugS has an excellent opinion, that's a given, but the Presque Isle numbers are not an accurate assessment of his talents ( which are significant ).

For whatever reason, they handle better on Betfair than many mid-level tracks and almost as well as a few of the biggest tracks.

There's often over a thousand dollars available on both sides of a price for the shorter priced horses ... it's like their top Tuesday track.

I can't dispute anything you say...but there are a lot of small pool tracks where I think it would still be a brutal task to pick every race.
