Betting 2k a day is where YOUR problem is. Winning 21k on a pick 4 is not much IF your spending that much per day.

Spending that much a day doesnt require that much handicapping skill. You took the fun out of the game yourself.

Racing will look different a decade from now. Fewer tracks, fewer horses. Hopefully lower takeout. Take a break. Come back fresh.

Handle consists of rebetting winnings. I'm not saying I'm losing or spending $2k per day but had a handle of that much.

However, point taken.

I can understand why someone isn't enamored with the game right now- there's times it's hard to love. When the Jamie Ness' of the world run rampant it turns me off. But like most sports, it's a cyclical game- there are other times in history where things weren't great, for example the pre-BC 80's weren't spectacular; I was too young to make a qualitative decision at that point, but I could see how a fan in that era wouldn't be excited. Take a step back for awhile.
