jman, I think I'll start a series of my own. It will be structured similar to yours, except mine will concentrate on more like the bridgejumper type situations. I will be surprised if any of mine pay more than $2.20; most will pay $2.10. Like yours, a "round" will consist of a parlay of 10 show bets beginning with a $100 bet. If I win 10 in a row, I'll have between $160 and $200, and I will start a new parlay with $100. I will probably need to successfully complete at least 6 of my 10 ten-race parlays to show a profit.

I'll hope to do 10 rounds, but it may take awhile. If a horse loses, a new round will automatically start with the next listed post-time.

Round 1

1. 9/29 TP R10--Street Sense

--Dunbar

PS, if you prefer I do this in a separate thread, don't hesitate to say so.

Nope, you're fine right here. Good Luck. I think you'll do a better job at being patient and picking the "right" situations than I am.

I get the sneaking suspicion that Bay Meadows will get me yet again. I'm like a bug to the zapper. But, if you're doing a show parlay, how can you turn down like 5 straight 5 horse fields???

Oh yeah, I've done those. Not in the BEL one though. There's a lot of them these days, take your pick. I think Oak Tree just started one or is very soon.

"10/10" seems like a good day to get to 10 in a row!

Pepper's Pride won and paid $2.10 to show.

Running total after 2 bets is $110.25.

The average show pool today at Sunland had maybe $3500 in it. The 9th race (with Pepper's Pride) had a $150,000 show pool. 96.4% of the money in the pool (as shown by YouBet) was on Pepper's Pride. That's as high a percentage as I've seen.
