Oh yeah Mike P, aka Oracle, when you receive that $50 Gift Certificate enjoy. I prefer you stick it up your flippin ass bitch.

It's me, Curt, since someone, who was the only one, called me out obviously.

Ya'll take it easy
Curt,
I have told Scavs in private messages that he will attest to that you have higher honor and class than 99% of the people I have ever met.
This is the truth folks!! Whatever Curts faults may be, he is a man of honor and integrity and I respect him!!!

You cap great don't get me wrong but it's like me listening to Donald Trump on real estate advice my small bank account. Do see what I'm trying to say?

Packer,
Despite what I may post, anyone who knows me knows my heart is as big as a volkswagen. I'm a sucker, and have been played many times. Never stops me though, anyone I can help out I will, and you are on that list. You will never thirst for knowledge. I've got ya.

"I like reading the picks others make in the selections section but mostly it's because I am looking for angles they found that I might have missed. Someone posting "I like the the 8" is meaningless. Someone posting "I like the 8 because he..." is better. My knowing the 8 is underbet because of "..." is best."


Could'nt say it better Chromer....But I need to be better with why I like a horse!

my father always said, and i agree with him, that what a man says drunk he means completely, totally. it's the honest truth--he just hasn't got the guts to say it when he's sober.

Peace all.
You know I come to this board for information and entertainment.
Most of the time this board has been great.
Today it got a bit "toxic".
Time to "chill".
Peace.

Night DTS..... I agree with you.....I'll say this about that. I and the close friends I have and even my brother who play this game battle and just like that in person,heated arguments....I've taken it as part of the game. I make no judgement on a human being who and when is playing this game. For they are always a different person away from the window. And as a person who loves the game It seems we all get along away from the windows. Just my opinion.

And you are a compulsive gambler. Doesn't give you a right to be a jerk.

I think the money made is overrated. I like the puzzle.

I freely admit that I have a losing record on betting horses since I started tracking it in 1999. I have 1 winning year (though I am up so far in 2006 which will be 2 if it continues). I don't bet as much as I used to. But I still love the game.

I picked up the game during college in 2001, and I will freely admit I ran up a VISA card to get off the ground ) I took my lumps and lost plenty, but have been on the positive side of the ledger since 2004.

In addition to my love of the animal, I play because of the intelligence involved to play and knowing that if I can outsmart most and see some angles they may not see, the reward will be high. To get those high rewards, their sometimes need to be high risk, which is where the fun comes, and you hope your intelligent, well versed risks are more solid than someone elses. I play a few cards a week, and I ring in my weekend with "The Quarters" on TVG every Thursday.

That being said, this is the United States, Oracle (and others) are free to sell anything they want. Their picks, their biases, their bodies, WHATEVER . I wont be buying, but the man is building his own free enterprise, so to each his own.

In other news, I paid Capital One back everything I owed from college gambling when I hit the super in the 2003 Breeders Cup Classic which was almost 5k for a $1, if I recall.

The fun in this whole thing is figuring it out for yourself. It is beyond me why anyone would buy cheat sheets or picks from anyone unless they are lazy and really dont want to learn. If one feels they are getting slighted because they dont have any "inside information", then go to the track and get to know people if that is possible. I have gathered through the years that each track has its own little nuances, and that if you are doing this for entertainment gained only thru winning money, your playing for the wrong reasons.

So I say lets have some fun comparing notes on how we play, along with what we play.
