I've never met a horseplayer who doesn't look at odds. That's a pretty damn ridiculous approach.

I look at the odds when im done handicapping, and do put huge win bets on horses I really like whether it be even money or 20-1.

I generally do things in reverse. I look at the huge payoffs from my huge win bets, subtract 2 or 3 or 4 zeros (depending how huge of a bet I made), then divide by 2 then subtract 1. Then I know what the horses odds were.
