Every once in awhile, I have the urge to play something different. Clearly, I'm going to have to fight those urges.

Not me. I just give in to them.

As I've said on more than one occasion (people close to me have told me I tend to repeat myself), the ROI contest provides a marvelous opportunity to try wagers you normally don't bet, or different ways to structure wagers.

I'm just waiting for a return to Saratoga so that I can try my hand at the new $0.20 Empire Pick 6 that NYRA has just started to offer, even though I'm pretty sure that a $100 bankroll isn't large enough to properly cover the 6 races.

I like to give them a try every once in awhile, but it usually ends up for me like last Saturday. I have no clue which races I have a good opinion in and which ones I don't. I have been going with tris and doing fairly well with them for awhile, but then hit a losing streak so thought I'd give something new a try. I concentrated this time on the last 5 races and actually had decent opinions on the top 3 finishers in 3 of the 5 races so a bit frustrating to actually lose money when I might have won sticking with the tris, but on we go. Handicapping with me is always a work in progress even after having done it for so long. One of these days, I'll learn how to do it..... or not.

“FELINE METHODOLOGY” THAT OFTEN PAYS OFF FOR MOI 💰
To Hardcore Handicappers It Defies All “Logic”
Yet, It Is ALL I’ve Ever Done!
So many longshot winners based upon the following criteria

NAMES WHO “CALL TO ME”

GRAYS
{BTA, Holy Bull, Skip Away, Lit de Justice, Darn That Alarm, Izvestia}
If it’s GRAY = I Play!

SIRES
ALL FELINES ~ Distorted Humor (Of Course) ~ Significant Names

DG, I mostly use a dart board and if I'm really desperate (most often I am) I pull out the Quija Board and check it with my 8 Ball.

It was nice of Ms. Ruffian to give us an occasional reminder of her winning techniques, but I think we might be more interested in knowing Roamin's methodologies as he seems to be leading this parade. I suspect he is just masquerading as a mild mannered former truck driver and purveyor of card games in Vegas and in reality, he is a former NASA scientist and has developed his own algorithms for predicting the outcome of races.
