That is hilarious. You can tell Greg Wolf has never bet a dollar in his life, there is nothing worse then getting your balls broken after losing on a horse like the 2/5. Pure assumption, but he probably had the horse singled in the last leg of an exotic and was counting the cash.

Wolf is lucky he didn't get his butt kicked....

Had to be a joke. Can't see Mirahmadi going all in on a 2-5 shot...unless it was something like Scav pointed out and he needed the horse for a Pick 4 or something.

Seems he may have bet it to win heavy. It wasnt like the pick 4 was going to pay anything life changing if that 2-5 came in.

Walking away is the best thing.

I am tired of these guys/girls making their selections and crying about making it affordable for the public and being held within the constraints of the "policies"

I suggest they each be compensated via their selections

Much like a salesman

give them benefits and a draw to live on

Give them an annual bankroll of 100,000 and a minimum daily play of say 200.

Make their selections and then keep whatever they earn.

big bonus to highest earner and incremental bonus for positive roi

I know this is simplistic but some version would give a measure on their ROI and create a hierarchy amongst the "talent".

Any guesses on who would have to start selling tip sheets in about July

Mr. B already sells tip sheets. He cuts and pastes the morning line selections.

No kidding...

I think when Mr. B puts together a pick 6, he has:

Morning line fav
Morning line fav, second fav
Morning line fav, second fav, third fav, fourth fav
Morning line fav, second fav, third fav
Morning line fav
Morning line fav, second fav, third fav

this past January I was all set to play Aqueduct via twinspires from my couch as per the norm on a Saturday

they cancelled after the first race so I took a look at Tampa and attempted to play around with their early pick four fo .50 and have some fun

I got pressed for time and didnt have time to handicap the 4th leg so being in somewhat of an alchohic haze I used my first three legs and plugged in Mr bs selections for the fourth leg

lo and behold I hit the first leg with a 20 plus winner.

I then looked at my play via Mr b in the 5th and hated it.

Did my work in the fourth leg and played 1$ pick 3s with my pick 4 selections in the next two legs

again with the lo and behold I hit the next leg with a 40 + winner and then the next leg with an 18.00 winner

live to 3 horses in the pick 4 leat amount of payoff was 15000
other 2 the whole pool ! 32000 plus I think..I was very confused

covered 2 not covered in p3 and p4 with 40 win bets

result

Hit pick 3 for 3800


even though I made a great score was really depressed about not hitting p4

moral of story?

Mr B = Hank G
New love for Tampa
