Scavs,
The 90% / 10% rule is right on. Almost exactly me too. I still bet some at the track b/c its nice to have the money in your hand if you do well. But I only go to Saratoga and Belmont a few times a year....The rebates make the game more fair, not less. Think about it this way, betting a football game laying -110, you have to be really good over the long haul to turn a profit. Try and do that at -116 or -117 for horse racing. Reallll tough. But at -108,-109 it becomes doable if you bring your A game.
