Congratulations! It's always nice to hear when a fellow horse player makes a good hit.

Blah, blah, blah, blah....... whatever. Have a nice career redboarding other people's bets. I regret nothing except crossing swords with a jerk like you.

Plus, don't redboard. It's unbecoming.
If you were not even born yet on the date of the Breeder's Cup that Arcangues won, November 6, 1993, that means you are under 18, therefore if you "Screw up bets all the time," that means you are violating the law by making wagers underage. I cannot believe this site would allow someone promoting their illegal activity, so please stop.

While redboarding sucks at times it's fine because its part of the conversation.

I tend to believe people who say they hit whatever on here because really who would lie about that? You'd have to be pretty pathetic.

Besides... Doreen doesn't lie.

My favorite was when Frankie hit Swain 13 times left handed so he could drift all the way out to the rail and high five me while Silver Charm held on to fill the exacta.

I had always bet MDO, but instead of betting him across the board - like I usually do - I bet him $20 to win. At least you made a little money.

That GD PP - he did the same thing to my boy in the 2004 Dubai Classic.
