I have a Suffolk OTB account and it was my understanding that you had to make $300 in wagers on a call to get track odds for those wagers.

Thanks,

Capital OTB/// if you maintain at least 300 in your account, they give you track odds. You must have 300 in the account though. Nothing under after your bet.

How is it that your opinion is so strong on the night before a program, that you can announce 3-4 hundred dollars in wagers that far in advance? If I wager that much I'm not going to pull the trigger until just before the race, and I for sure want to watch the race live.
You are incredible, I wish you would share more of your secrets.
being concerened with what the public thinks has cost me tons of money, i was taught young not to let that influence my betting, sometimes it makes me jump off a horse i like because another horse is taking money so i dont handicap that way i stick with the horse i like regardless of what the odds are and i think i pretty well, i have had 3 bad days in a row now, but it happens and this is easily my worst stretch in over a year...

In Suffolk County NY if you have over 300 in your account you get track price.The office in Hauppague also pays track prices.

Thanks!!!

Knew about Hauppague, but I was misinformed when I signed up for phone acct. I was told you needed to place $300 per call to get track prices, she even suggested I could bet the entire day's wagers to get to $300.

Who would have guessed this thread would accomplish something productive...

You guys get your panties in a bunch over PG1985 picks and losses. Give the guy a break so what if he loses money its his money and he can do what he wants with it. At least he posts picks. Ya'll have been picking on him enough. give it up

appreciate it, but dont worry about it... i make all the bets i say, and i had another bad day today it happens to everyone, you dont have to defend me, i know i make all the bets i say i make and it dosent bother me if they belive it or not, they dont have to belive me....anyway i got smashed again today, i dident know jv was off the horse in the third, i guess its my own fault for making the bet early, but that wouldnt have mattered anyway it seems like every horse i picked ran really bad

Gulfstream is weird. Only sure thing at Gulfstream is Pletcher being in the winners circle. I havent been able to pick winners all meet. The races I bet I lose, but the races I look at and dont bet cause I am fed up with losing, then i pick the winner but dont make any money. But then again I suck at handicapping and I only bet 20-40 dollars per week and spend equal amount on beer at the track. Another angle - beer affects handicapping.

i was really going to take a few weeks off i was losing to much, but i won a small poker toruny saturday night and figured i'd bet this card, i thought it was a really nice card for a monday and i really felt good about a few things, but it never goes the way you think its going to go..... i only bet this way because i have the money to, its not like i put myself in debt making these bets....... but again thanks..

you have no concept of what I meant when I said that you should pay attention to what the public thinks. You picked some selections based upon the fact that you liked the juicy 6:1 morning line. Would you have still bet the horse if it went off at 2:1? If the public likes your horse and pounds it down to lower odds than you are comfortable with, thats when you have to be concerned about what the public thinks.

You were totally shut out today, $394 lost. I would be concerned for you if I really thought you made those plays, but its quite obvious that you didn't.

Why are you getting your panties in a bunch if people challenge his betting assertions? He doesn't seem to mind, why do you? None of his claims make sense and anyone that bets the way he does would be ruined in short order. To me its a disservice to just stand by and accept it. A lot of new people come around here looking for advice on betting strategies. They deserve to be able to read an honest interaction amongst the gamblers on here. To stand by and say nothing is not honest.

I think the reason that I get my panties in a bunch is cause I actually believe the guy. I never accuse people until I know for sure and have proof that they are lying, etc. It bothers me when people accuse accuse accuse. PG1985 seems to really follow the horses and I respect that. He does his homework and yes he makes bold claims but those bold claims lead to good discussions. I guess I am just tired of reading 20 posts a day attacking PG1985.

Anti, please...

dude is 24 year old, he hasn't been alive long enough to understand horse racing, unless you are a mensa like Drugs is.....

Seriously, don't be this gullable. Bold claims is saying Shane Laviolette is a good jockey, not that you are putting $500 on a horse or whatever this clown is doing

I cant tell you how many times i have said "I am never drinking again" or "I am not drinking for 2 weeks" and then 2 or 3 days later a friend calls and says hey lets go hang out at the bar... and there I am.

**** that didnt make my life sound good at all...
