Winner Winner Chicken Dinner!!!

HOOOOORAY!!!!!! Hit the early pick 4, the $3 pick 3 and a $6 daily double into race 7 yesterday. Walked away a total winner! For all you horse players out there, I had to have my picture taken by the Feds before they would cash the ticket. You know what that means. BTW, I probably processed at least 30,000 and maybe as much as 50,000 independent points of data on the racing form for the Friday and Saturday racing cards. It's a tough business, but God help me I love it so. I even did the Riddler Dance after the seventh race. See the video below. I learned it from Marshall Gramm.





OK all you degenerate horse players out there, time once again for Professor Trackman's rules of horse race gambling. I have purchased these with blood and treasure. I give them to you free: 1. Do your handicapping for yourself. 2. If you can’t take the losses don’t bet. 3. Greed Kills. 4. Winners correct their mistakes next time out. Losers bet bigger trying to cover…which will never cover in the end. 5. Never get too high or too low. 6. Scared money don’t win. 7. Women and booze don’t mix with horses. 8. Don’t bet a beaten favorite coming back trying to do something he has never done before, anything. 9. Exotic bets should supplement straight bets and never supplant them. 10. Eat your betting money...but don't bet your eating money. 11. Every time that gate opens, expect to be humbled. Whatever you do this weekend, Good Luck!

"Here comes Ben"????? - I thought the odds for there were, well, what's the word? - Inflated!

The morning line or the post odds? Either way I am wounded. Anyone who wants to know I am suffering is now getting their wish.

Dear IHawk: Now I got you (I was in hard core horse playing mind set). All of your fears are justified. That 70s Show is looking us square in the face. All we need is some geopolitical nastiness in the Middle East and we are off to the races so to speak (please forgive the pun).

This horse racing lingo is worse & more confusing than econometrics

Herbstreet: I looked at over 50,000 independent numbers to handicap the card for Saturday. It takes about 10 years to have any chance at all to win in horse race gambling. Start today...tomorrow only 3649 days to go.
