Worst handicaper of the year

Kingturf · #1 01-30-2011, 08:32 PM

I am taking the award so far for 2011. Have you ever bet really bad? Or was is just bad luck. After reading stories out here, I won't even call these bad beats. It's called not betting with any logics. Here's two time that I miraculous hit a race at Gulfstream in the past 5 race cards that I bet where I beat myself instead of maximize what I picked.

These bets was thru my xpressbet account

WebService January 21, 2011 1:51 PM 280151 Race 3 Gulfstream Park $2.00 EX (BOX ) 9, 12, 13 Bet $12.00 $994.40

WebService January 21, 2011 1:52 PM 239249 Race 3 Gulfstream Park $10.00 WP 12 Bet $20.00 $556.00

This one thru my twinspires mobile wager

COMPLETED: 52636993749475 GP #9 $2 Exacta BX,5,6,11 none $ 12.00 $ 304.80

I will post the DRF race results so that someone can really point me in the right direction when betting. Because I am not maximizing my wagers. And I have been playing over 30 years!

As you can see, most would think; hey you are winning don't complain. But this is the reason I am seriously asking advice from this forum. 30 years ago, we had WPS, early and late doubles and by the mid 80's two trifectas. These multiple wagers races has been killing me because I am not thinking ahead two or three races.

Are any of these races the one when you chopped off a finger cheering your winner home?

I thought so. The most creative redboarder ever.

If you take the same amount of time you carefully redboard on message boards than maybe you will be able to find some winners to maximize your profits.

Next time post your thoughts on a race BEFORE you bet so that the members of this message board can help you with your wagers.
