But thats my point, sometimes the track changes from race to race let alone from day to day. You are at a HUGE disadvantage by putting bets in at 8am and we're not even talking about possible scratches that affect the way a race might be ran.

I have to say something, today there seemed to be quite a few "birds" chirping in here about my style of betting...
It's very easy to sit on the sidelines with your comments. Why don't you post your daily,plays ?? As I stated from my very first day here, it's hit or miss...lately it's been more miss... I was bought up with these skill sets, if you don't have something nice to say don't say it.... I'll leave it at that... I will continue posting my daily picks, no one has to reply. Not doing it to impress anyone... That's it, for anyone who is really betting I wish you well... Those arm chair QBs move on from me

From what I've seen today, you have to be no worse than 3rd... I will take that into advisement as I handicap now for Thursday..
Am I at a disadvantage possibly, but I've been doing this now for 23 years. Hard to teach an "old dog" new tricks I do thank you for your comments

But you cant kill people for having questions about your strategies, especially with the amounts you say that you are pushing through the windows. If that's the case, why post them at all? There are a couple of very good cappers on this board and I've been fortunate to learn a little from all of them. That's what this place is all about. Just like we are trying to gain an edge by asking you certain questions, you could quite possibly learn something from some of the people that post here. Best of Luck, I'd really like to see you make a comeback.

Maybe I'm just cranky with this cold steak I'm going through... Thus my short comments... yes many are rooting for my comeback...
I DO play every bet that I post, in fact sometimes even more... My "mentor" questions my strategy daily by the way... He gets frustrated with me.. I'm a stubborn person, am constantly reading books,trends,angles... I used to play the Grand Slam everyday I gave up after going 0-29 I do thank you for your kind words Quote:

As I've stated now 3 times I place my bets EVERY morning at 8AM so I have NO idea what the odds on my horse will be at post time.....
You and others say me betting early is not good, I do it for the following reasons: 1-Some of my picks are longer prices, if I wait till post and see those odds I've been known to change my mind thus causing me to either not bet 2- I am out of my house quite a bit and don't want to miss the races I've chosen to bet for the day 3- been doing this for 23 years and my habits are hard to change Final point, you say you doubt I can get out of this hole in a week...tell you what it WILL happen... And not by betting 3/5 shots... If you took offense to my comments I'm sorry, as I've stated from the first day I ever posted in here. I'm doing this me, not to impress anyone... I've been very polite to everyone in here since my arrival, I wish people well in their threads.... Quote:

Lonestar I understand why you need to bet by 8am but why not make them conditional
wagers based on the price you wish to accept. No one ever lost money passing a race. |

LoneStar, I have to say that I have been on this board for several years and have never seen the guys (and gals) be so supportive and patient. I feel like i'm in the Twilight Zone.
I wish you good luck going forward, but have to say, I can't see this turning around without a change of strategy. I hope you prove me wrong and I can learn something too. Betting into tracks with larger fields may help? |

Hopefully Turfway Park turns it around for me.. I'm working on reinventing the "wheel" Quote:
