A little bit of math concludes this HailRazer.

So, you say that you only hit 30% of those wagers. Let's play fantasy here and say that you hit ALL of them! Every single one of them. As in 100%, 20 out 20, etc.

EVEN if you hit EVERY single one of your "20 wagers of $4 to win," each of those horses would have had to have gone off at an AVERAGE of 654-1. Yes, if you had hit every one of those twenty wagers, those horses would each have had to have paid on average, at odds of 654-1!!!!

So let's get back to the fact that you only hit 30% of them. That means your six winners hit at an average of 2184-1?!

What tracks do you play, and what service carries them...because apparently there are $4,300 winners to be had for a measly two bucks out there somewhere!!!!!!!!!!!

I thought I would stump you for sure with this one, but alas, math has once again prevailed....

I actually am lucky to play less than 20 races a day. I don't wager a lot, but win bets do generally average more than $4 and I've never hit a horse over 70-1

I've been exposed. Do with me what you will.
