This is the first step to you becoming a sharper horseplayer...
Betting is not just risking money, it's you putting your mind to the test of Truth.
Here are 3 concepts to consider...
Treat your betting mindset as if you are an Olympic athlete
* Be willing to be great and make sacrifices to win (ie working hard)
* Take the little details seriously and examine every horse carefully, inside and out, turn the race over in your mind several times to become one with it ;-)
* Limit distractions from noise to people to alcohol to false prophets
* Develop a routine of best practices that work based on your preferences to keep you at your highest focused self ie listening to music, drinking water, tracking your decisions
Be prepared far in advance
* Do not wait until the day of the races to begin your analysis
* Analyze and take notes in a way that you can revisit at a later time for post mordum
* Increase concentration by eating well the night before and the day, blue green algae, vegetables, foods high in Omega 3/6 will increase brain function, plus liquid B vitamins
* Map out your betting strategy and scenarios hours before each race
* Hire someone to help you manage your betting software if you don't know how to write code
* Study the patterns that lead to your highest ROI
Accurately translate and express your brain on paper
* Ascertain the probabilities of the horses you intend to wager upon and to bet against
* Locate your key calls in terms of A, B, C, and D in each race
* Based on your expected value of a race, assess whether to bet or pass; if the value is average, then consider saving your bet for a more lucrative opportunity
* Determine the best way to distribute your mindset on paper ie 50% on A bet call in a race, 25% on B call in a race, 20% on C call in a race, 10% of betting dollars on a D call in a race
* Set your targeted payouts in advance based on your bankroll and wager to hit your number OR bet based on using the Kelly equation IF you can accurately predict your probabilities
* In a tournament, bet as if your life depends on it and swing for the fences on your strongest opinion with the greatest value!
* Smile and give thanks after you win or lose to allow yourself to be in harmony with the moment!
Bless up,
Christian
