On the way home, I find the other $1000 in my coat pocket that I didn't wear into the OTB for some reason. Man, it really could have been something, especially because I picked 8 out of 9 winners at Golden Gate that day.
There is a such thing as bad beats and really close calls. When people come on and start doing this or start with the redboarding it takes away from the stories.
