Betting Strategy

[the_fat_man]

I'm confused.

As there are any number of ways for the BEST HORSE to LOSE a race, and given all the other interesting aspects of the game, why is strategy for a < even money proposition something to discuss?

A long time ago, a, then young, racetrack friend of mine coined the phrase "bet the CHALK and you get BUSTED". How true it is.

My suggestion: instead of worrying about this crap, head over to the Trips and Traps Archive and learn something worth while.
