8) $10 W 5 A fat girl! (slump buster)
$2 ex 5 w/ 2,9 eh... pressed my luck.

No need to call redboard police, math. I believe you. Everytime I look at your picks you're hitting.

I'll probably just start betting what you bet from now on.

I know I know, I will call the RedBoard police on myself.

I'll be honest with you, I would rather you win your bets than worry about the redboarding thing. I know we all win and lose bets that arent posted, but alot of betting has to do with value and watching the board, all the way up to the wire. Making the plays count is more important than betting prowess in relation to everyone else that is betting here. Just my opinion.

Rider's claim of foul?! That's about right. I feel like Loony from Let it Ride. Disallowed!

So say us terrible handicappers.

Where in the hell is Morris Park? And is it really more prestigious than Suffolk Downs? I just graduated from Suffolk to Morris Park. Am I representing a dog track or some county fair right now?

I wasn't being self depricating but it's okay to read between the lines I guess.

i agree with this very much, pick 3/4 plays are one thing because you've already established yor value ahead of time based on your projection of what you think future races' boards will look like, but when you're looking at straight win bets something that looks good at 8-1ML may not at 3-1 at post.

Stan, did you put a 3K win bet on this horse to bring him down to 4/1?

Thanks for the nice words guys, but it's more of a credibility thing. It's easy to post winning bets after the fact. But to take the time to post your picks/thoughts means something whether they win or lose. It takes guts to put that stuff out there for the world to see. I give Stan alot of credit, he just keeps chuggin (I'm not sure he sleeps, he always has picks). It's also very time consuming. I don't know how some of these guys do it, but my hat goes off to them.
I am still in my personal funk (I did something so short sighted and stupid. And I'm beatin myself up over it), but that took the edge off just a bit. I started to chase and was lucky enough to cash. Thanks again, Good Luck the rest of the way.

That right Phil. Truth is, some of the win/place bets I make may be somewhat wild to post. Today I have cashed bet on some verylongshots. I make a living (just a cliche) taking pot shots at the board on longshots.

Understood. Stans the man IMO.
