At home, It's much easier to avoid chasing money. Change the channel to another sport, and try them the next day. Fact is there are people around you doing other things than gambling on horses, and that just naturally makes it easier to switch off your competitive juices. At the track, it's a bunch of gamblers, and, for the most part, it's best to avoid that. It's great to talk to other gamblers before a card etc., and it's o.k. to bet horses with them once in a while, but day in/ day out it just is best to avoid it(because you want to avoid the whole mutuel losing thing.)Just because others are losing more than you doesn't make it o.k. to lose more than you should. The negative of betting from home is ya don't get as much feedback from others on your wins. Trust me, they don't care that you won.
