Which shows why betting every race is a fool's errand.

Kudos to HHH for being the best of the crew...
I do have a question: Is there some info missing? How do you have a positive ROI ("beating the Saratoga meet") and yet not increase the bankroll from its original balance ($1000)?

OK, I was able to get to the site and now I think I understand.
If you wagered $2 for 393 races ($786 total) and the balance went to $812, you'd be $26 ahead, beating the meet. (this is all obviously paraphrasing what HHH said in his blog) So, to compare apples and apples, his $1000 mythical bankroll, which he did not use all of, would have been $1026...
