Default Horseplayer Attempts 450 Race, Single-Day Marathon Wagering Session

Sorry if this was already posted but didn't notice a link. Pete Fornatale will be attempt a day-long effort to wager on every race and every track around the world offered on TwinSpires. You can follow along on USTREAM. I would have thought several DerbyTrailers have done this on several occasions already.

I can't see the link at work, is he actually handicapping the races or just picking $2 show bets on them?

Because even if he spent as little as 10 minutes looking at each race, that would be 75 hours of handicapping.

You have to be just playing odds or otherwise randomly picking horses in order to accomplish this.

I don't believe that someone just asked him where his Fat Charts were.........Safe bet it was a Nerdy Trail member.

This was an earlier sequance................
11:17 ustreamer-75596: esteemed handicapper pg1985 is betting cuckoo rock HEAVY wp
11:18 ustreamer-70751: who is pg1985?
11:19 ustreamer-75596: Joey S. at CapitalOTB
11:20 ustreamer-31365: Ive heard of that guy
11:21 ustreamer-75596: He's a massive talent.



Even before that the same guy made a reference to Fat Charts and a prediction based off the fat charts.
I think the whole things is comical. While you are right that it's probably not him, but there is no way that you can throw him totally out of the equation and that's what makes it so funny (at least to me). Also trying to guess who is posting picks representing him is just as good.

12:43 ustreamer-91572: Your boy Dickinson must have been giving you the voodoo traning
12:43 ustreamer-21373: DaHoss does not bet Finger Lakes. I am much bigger then that.
12:44 ustreamer-22273: Finger Lakes is the poor man"s Saratoga...the really poor man!!!
12:45 ustreamer-21373: DAHOSS OUT.
12:46 ustreamer-33189: I think Dahoss is a legend in his own mind. Just thain'
12:46 ustreamer-96474: the_fat_man here. My fat chart says the 6 is a standout at that BIASED monmouth track
12:50 ustreamer-10967: speaking of Finger Lakes, I heard Tom from PaceAdvantage crushes it over there

This is more entertaining than actually betting the races

Must be one of those 3-1 P3/4 bettors. Those who can't produce those > $30 horses, need to be out taking shots at those who can.
