7 minutes to Race 3 at Oak Tree...

[bassin_bug]

Lost race 3 but NAILED them in race 4, TAPITSFLY, all day long. Nice little chunk of $1300 coming my way from the nice paramutual wagers. Thanks to all that wagered on Race 4, I appreciate the donations. Not bad for a $20 win bet and $10 exacta bet to get back 40 times the money.

This is just for fun.

According to your other post, you studied the Racing Forum for approximately 50 hours.
You won $1,300 - $30 bets = $1,270 profits.
$1,270 divided by 50 hours = $25.40/hour for studying the Racing Forum. That equals a 40-hour work week plus 10 hours of overtime. Since you have been sick, I gave you a break and didn't deduct income tax. lol

Several years ago we went to the Greyhound Dog Track in Pensacola, FL for the weekend dog races. I walked up to the window and told the ticket agent that I wanted one Trifecta and entered the numbers I was playing. He was Cuban and pretended not to understand English very well but did finally hand me a ticket. We went and sat down and Dog #1 walked outside the track, humped up and left a huge pile of doggie poop. The person with me said, "You should have bet on that dog. He just unloaded five pounds and will outrun the whole bunch." I said, "I don't think so, his odds are 46-1." I was thinking about my bet and, for the first time looked at my ticket and my heart just sank. The ticket agent had placed my bet on Dog #1 (the worst in the pack) instead of betting my Trifecta; he had also kept my change and I couldn't prove I asked for the Trifecta. I was fully steamed and couldn't enjoy the race for thinking about what that guy did to me. When the race was over I saw people ripping up tickets and tossing them into the air. Dog #1 was the winner and I walked up to the window with the shortest line and collected my winnings. I looked over at the person with me and said, "Thanks for the racing tip. Next time I'll bet on the dogs that dump before the race." lol

Sometimes better to be lucky than good. Ended up giving back some of my winnings but still came out $500 to the good. Needed a little luck today, have a 4-11-7 trifecta and it comes 4-7-11, have a big pick 3 where I hit the first 2 legs and get nosed out for the third leg, and these 2 bets alone would have made today better than yesterday. But that is racing/gambling whatever you want to call it. Never liked Zenyatta in the classic and she proved me wrong by running an AMAZING race. Never thought she would hit the board much less win but that is racing. There is always the next race, in about 15 minutes.
