Wish I had real money on it :)

Note to self: Bet Dunbar's "Alt" picks!


--Dunbar

Nice picks yesterday by Gaines2b (he picked both winners) and Dunbar (he had both winners as his alternate picks). Our leaders after three races are Gaines2b, cboh11 and Hickory Hill Hoff. There are currently 70 members in the contest and the key to winning this is to make pick each week, but if you miss a week or two that’s ok, one long shot winner can catch you up.

As always, if you see an error on my part, please feel free to let me know - I am far from perfect!

Some nice scores, but as a whole, we are doing worse than the track take. I get that there have been 192 picks in the contest for a total of $6 * 192 = $1152 in bets. We've (and in my case I use "we've" very loosely) collected a total of $921.90, which is a 20% rate of loss.

--Dunbar

Dunbar, depends on how you look at the numbers. Of 70 entrants 22 of them are above the $18.00 break even point. That is over 31% of the crowd that is making money at the track. Not sure where you play but I bet 31% of the crowd doesn't make money. :D

Well, it's way too early to draw any conclusions. I only posted the 20% fig because I thought it was mildly interesting. I'll keep tabs on that stat as the contest progresses.

Your way of looking at it is interesting, especially if a sizable number are still ahead at the end of the Contest. But if the Group above breakeven is truly more than what would happen at a typical track, the group BELOW breakeven must be doing far worse than your typical track bettors. Otherwise the combined fig (-20%) wouldn't be so bad.

Again, at this point it's too soon to get excited one way or another.

--Dunbar

All I know is I am glad I am not last!!!!! :D

did you take into account all the "no bets"?

and the fact that'd i'd never, ever bet across the board in real life.

if i had made 3 actual bets, my return would be -$6.00, not +$0.40.

Derbycat -

You missed my picks.

As long as I beat Bigs, I am a happy person
