It matters not if ones top selection or 3rd selection wins as long as a profit is turned on ones investment. With that being said I wish us all good skill profitable wagers.

I really have no issue with different types of strategy. My issue really is what you say your suggested plays are. To me that means you are encouraging other people to play your picks, using your strategy.

By my count, that's $777 dollars worth of bets. Thats really not a small investment.

But at the end of the day. You only bet $400 and there are win prices all over the place with your first, pick second pick and so on. But I don't see any suggested win bets. Not to mention there are races that are now passed on, that were suggested that you use in rolling doubles and pick 3's.

It just all seems a bit disingenuous to me.

I lurk a lot here and I know there a some excellent handicappers here, starting with the guy who runs the show.
He gives out 4 options in some races, but there's a story and a format with it. The guy really does a tremendous job posting information.
Then some of the other guys that play in the playalong threads are very good too. Lot's of times they give insights on horses which go a hell of a lot farther then listing 5 horses win a race with a prospective betting menu.
Guys like JMS, ATeamstupid, Pointman, Knickslions, Jimmy Ellis, Benny and even that RHT guy (who no one seems to like) take the time to post real time picks and real time plays as opposed to the strategy of throwing 5 horses into every bet under the sun every race.

Even that Lonestar fella, while I disagree with some of his strategy, he puts it out there for the world to see, good and bad. Unfortunately most has been bad, but I'm rootin for that bastard to make some hell of a comeback.

I dont wish bad on anyone supporting this great game of ours and I wish you luck with your wagers. This is just my 2 cents.
