I'm so I could pull a Plexico right now. Get to the Turfy with about 5 mtp for GP R3. Played my 2 P3's starting in races 5 and 6. Bull$hit with my favorite teller there Jack for a minute, and decide to put in a tri bet, keying Hill's charge with 3 other horses.(none of which hit the board) I make the bet, and a few guys behind me is this guy(Warren Sapp look alike to the tee) that I've engaged in conversations with before about Hills on the grass. He asks me if I want to go halves on a $2 ex 4-all and a $1 all-4 bet ..I tell him no thanks, I like him in this spot and all, but I just spent my extra loot on the tri ticket.(actually had about 8 dollars left and wasnt about to tap the Mac there, leaves a paper trail for my woman, as she works at teh bank that I belong to and checks up on $hit like this..different story for a different day)...

Needless to say, he wins, a bomb fills the exacta, and I slink out the door in disgust. As I'm leaving all I hear is "White Mike, White Mike", as he was trying to flag me down. Just a missed opportunity that I wouldnt even have fretted over had the opportunity not just presented itself to me like it did. Basically hit me in the a$$ with it..uggghh...I already know how the rest of my day is going to end.

Better luck to eveyone else playing!
