Oh don't worry. I'm positive that if any of these redboarding cretins posted their picks in the selection room before the races then they would be losers too.

I'm an admitted wagering idiot. If I had ANY CLUE of how to wager at all, I would have made a bundle this weekend. But I didn't. I used 3 horses in the Juvy Filly Turf Friday on one of my pick 3 tickets (singled Maram on two other tickets). The horses I used ran 1,2,3. Do you think I am intelligent enough to play the exacta and tri?? Um know... If I simply box those 3 horses in ex and tri for $2 each I make $300 on the exacta and $1800 on the tri. But again..my handicapping is far better than my wagering.

I'm done with Pick 3's and 4's. Its exactas all the way for me now and I'll tell ya I see the light, really do. Now granted I got spanked Friday but man I made it back on Saturday. I just really would rather focus on one race at a time and try to hammer it for first and second then string together 3 or 4 races where either it gets chalky, a bomb blows it up etc etc.. Consider also that I for the most part am gambling under $75 - the exception is days like yesterday and Friday. If I would not have hit the exacta in the classic I would have lost $160 over the two days.

LOL.... Some of us bet with real money and are a bit too busy concentrating to bother posting.. But from reading your picks after the fact I'm sorry I didn't catch them beforetime so I could leave them off my ticket...

Oh real bets? Like betting Oaklawn in September?

I'm just curious...have you ever posted a winner on here before the race that paid half as much as that redboard?

Dude... Made a mistake calling it Oaklawn instead of Oaktree. Check the ticket vs the horses running that day.. Good catch bringing it up though. I recommend you spend half the time handicapping as you do posting nonsense and researching others past posts to find mistakes....

How about you put up about 10% of your redboard winnings and we have a handicapping competition, star?

No worries there.

Come on coach.... This thread was about talking about our scores and I hit the P3 Sat on Races 1-3.. That is what I said.... Now you decide to comeon and be the usual wiseass talking about redboarding. I'm not wasting my time with you but if you think I am redboarding than how about a 10,000 dollar wager to be donated to the Barbaro fund ? I will send evidence to Byk and the donation can be made in the name of Derbytrail.com to the Barbaro fund... What you say ?

OOOOOOOO

A challenge.

Front row seats.

JMS vs Coach.

Handicapping contest.

Coach lays out the challenge and JMS counters with an upped ante at 10k.

Lets watch.

You're not wasting your time with me? Is that why you were so "busy" that you couldn't post your selections on here before the races were run? Isn't it odd that you have time today?



The Barbaro fund? Please. You called me out on my handicapping. It should be an easy $500 for you. F.uck Barbaro and his fund. He had filthy rich owners. If I wanted to donate money to a charity it would be for Jerry's Kids. That way you could benefit from it.
