Giving up the game
Now getting back to the title of this thread, the reason I may be giving up the game:
Yesterday, had 8 out of 11 winners at Monmouth Park... still took an ass-kicking! The winners of the last 2 races were completely unplayable by my handicapping methods. The other race I lost, was the most important of the day, the final leg of what would have been a 4 figure pick four, and a 3 figure pick 3. If it weren't for bad luck the last 2 weeks, I'd have no luck at all

If you are serious about a break from the action, I would strongly recommend staying away from all things associated during that break. Lots of triggers.
Triggers meaning things that will get your attention and possibly cause you to dive back in. Such as drf.com, the track etc etc.. Very hard to do.

 , but I'm not disciplined enough to just play my "main" track. So for every winner I had at Monmouth, I matched with losers at CD, Belmont, and Delaware (Delaware???). And none of the winners at Monmouth were over 4-1, which is the way Monmouth runs, which is why I stop playing Monmouth every year after opening day... and my 2-1's became 7-5 during the race.. but that's another story 1st race at Monmouth is a perfect example, as I posted, I came in to the race loving the 4 horse, with the 7 horse as my second...well when it comes time to bet, I start looking at the 2, and then the 3, who is 25-1... so I end up playing 4-7 for $2 lousy, stinkin dollars ...(fighting back tears)... I can't continue this

Jr. College...16.60....Was hard to figure that one out but after being scr'd multiple times to enter THAT race ( 1 mi. Turf) it appears the connections knew he was "well meant". You'd think a Turf 1st'er who was challenged by the classy 6 w/ Bejano aboard @ 6/5 would be dead meat to the wire....BUT I gave Jesus Castonon a lot of credit for sticking with his horse. I only saw the replay once..but it looked like Bejano put his whip away when he got a 1/2 length in front with short distance to go. When he glanced over and saw JR. had come back beside him....he tried to get the stick going again for more response but it was too late..... I love Bejarano...but I think he fell asleep and it cost him. Big props to Castanon for that W. I don't know a lot about that kid but I think he bears watching. I use him a lot and if he's on the board...the payoffs often put a BIG smile on my face if I catch.

Scav channeling AJ on Sopranos. I'm hoping Vito Jr isn't next. Taking a break won't help. Figuring out how betting $100 p-3's and straight $100 Ex's at Cal-Expo fit into his overall lifestyle might be better. Let's all celebrate and go run a dozen red lights.
