jman, I think I'll start a series of my own. It will be structured similar to yours, except mine will concentrate on more like the bridgejumper type situations. I will be surprised if any of mine pay more than $2.20; most will pay $2.10. Like yours, a "round" will consist of a parlay of 10 show bets beginning with a $100 bet. If I win 10 in a row, I'll have between $160 and $200, and I will start a new parlay with $100. I will probably need to successfully complete at least 6 of my 10 ten-race parlays to show a profit.

I'll hope to do 10 rounds, but it may take awhile. If a horse loses, a new round will automatically start with the next listed post-time.

Round 1

1. 9/29 TP R10--Street Sense

--Dunbar

PS, if you prefer I do this in a separate thread, don't hesitate to say so.

Nope, you're fine right here. Good Luck. I think you'll do a better job at being patient and picking the "right" situations than I am.

jman5581 09-27-2007 03:15 PM

I get the sneaking suspicion that Bay Meadows will get me yet again. I'm like a bug to the zapper. But, if you're doing a show parlay, how can you turn down like 5 straight 5 horse fields??? :p

Oh yeah, I've done those. Not in the BEL one though. There's a lot of them these days, take your pick. I think Oak Tree just started one or is very soon.

"10/10" seems like a good day to get to 10 in a row!

That's 7 (again), need 3 more

jman5581 10-10-2007 06:24 PM

Meadowlands R1 - coupled entry, 1 and 1a OFF THE BOARD

I knew I was overdoing it a little, but WOW... had the best speed in the race couple with the best form on paper and one managed to walk across the finish line and the other one lost it's jockey in the stretch... that's the way it goes.

Rd 15 came to an end after 7 successful picks and a bankroll of $450.

Too bad about that one.

With the kind of payoffs you are getting, you only need to be successful 2 out of 10 times to show a nice profit. But it still ain't easy.
