She got deadheated.I had the win bet,and exacta,and didn't make much.That's why I say to play the multi-race bets.That's what I should have done.Sometimes you get caught by somebody putting all their inside win money in a p3,p4 pool.You get a bad break on the payoff,but it pays too good on a regular basis to worry about that.The good far outweighs the bad(if you bet it consistently.)Remember I had the p3 at Churchill that paid $5800 for what would have been a $1800 win parlay payoff.Ask Hooves, If ya forget,cuz I (unfortunately) had to beat his to get mine.His was paying over 10k.

If you pick the right pik 3 or 4 races. If you were going to bet those 3 or 4
anyway. But I see very few cards where I feel comfy 3 or 4 races in a row. So I gotta go deep and the risk taken most of the time outweighs the unknown reward. Why is that so hard to understand?
I am just getting back to the horses. The last horse bet and pick I made was Kip Deville on this board. And after I won that bet and got praised, I noted that the horse got a perfect trip, and it worked out perfectly because probably the best horse in the race had a horrible outside post. ie, I needed some luck and got it. It just astounds me after people like you get a win, it was pure genius. Its never pure genius. How many times have you had the best horse in the race and lost? How many times have you had a horse that was clearly going to compete in a race and won, and then go back and look at the race and say, By God, things worked out well for me. If that 4 horse had not got blocked I would not have won. Do you EVER do that?
As far as Federer. I knew he was playing a very tough smart player. I wrote he would get pushed. Well he got pushed out of the tournament. You somehow think cause you dont like him this will dictate the outcome. I dont revel in a loss like just because I think he is a clay court specialist and not much more. Oh, and a great competitor, better than Federer in this category, just not as talented.
As far as Hooves goes, I think he does an incredible job
keeping a handle on so many tracks. I could never do this,
I dont have the time or the memory.
And a few of his picks in the past that have coincided with
my own have won on a pretty consistent basis. So I really like
it when our picks match up.
