You're "helping" someone lose their money in a way when you make a winning bet. . . or at least profiting off their loss. . . I guess from your perspective as a public handicapper it's different. . .

Of course you profit from the losses of others......but you don't help them lose. They will lose regardless of whether or not someone else wins or even bets.

But not if you change their opinions. Like I said in my edit above - I'm sure you have different considerations as a public handicapper. It's also probably not worth thinking of things on such a small scale when you consider the size of pools, etc. Don't mind my ramblings. . . just trying to avoid writing a paper. . .

People should bet on their own opinions.....even if they're as bad as Giant Moon in the Excelsior.

I've never been a particular fan of Giant Moon ( as we discussed here last year ) and his last race was particularly mediocre.
