I’m not here to nitpick, but unless these aren't real wagers, it’s not an exaggeration

i only ask, b/c you all the sudden seem to be sending in $200 - $500 a race without a problem?

$10 for a little cabbage too much?

You said a race, like per race. I hardly bet every race and you just posted 3 wagers.

i posted your 3 wagers from race 10 on saturday at belmont.
meaning, prior to race 10, you wagered $520 on the outcome of race 10.

is your thought process that if you bet a double you've spread your bankroll amongst two races? if that's the case it's most definitely not an exaggeration

yep. and I wouldn't think it was skimming...but when the teller got so defensive when the mistake was pointed out, that's just odd.
years ago I worked for a vending company. one driver used to be right on with his money. and then he started being short each week, 40-60 bucks. not any one big shortage, a dollar here, a dollar there in his machines. he was let go. and at his next job, he was arrested for stealing.
I was indicted, never convicted.

Like I said its situation specific. But it is an exaggeration to act like I'm saying or actually betting $500 per race I bet. I hit the Baffert/Shug double for over 2k Saturday, then blew out of the pick 4. So yes, in that situation those 3 bets are what you say.

Didn't understand that "stature" remark either. In the upcoming Battle of the Titans handicapping contest, Rock may win, if they ever get out of the insulting stage and get down to business. As Declan said, RH10's play is much improved, but in a war of words, who could beat "this morning's double flusher ghost." Sounds like dialogue that should have been spoken by Rocky Balboa or maybe Ratso.

I got it. Much of what you say, I don't get, but I got that one and as Declan said you are a very funny guy and no criticism intended from me towards you or Rock. As others have said this whole thread was pretty entertaining, especially for what is usually a boring Tuesday. I look forward to the Clash of the Titans. Don't do that somebody's got to leave thing though. Nobody ever does and it wouldn't be the same place, if people did.

Look you are a player not a whale but a real honest to goodness gambler betting REAL money. I hope you used Alabama's proven angles in future...Did this Shug 5/8 work after all those halfs
figure in the 2000.00 Double SCORE. I have to tell you reading about your plays is great insight thanks for posting.

Not that it really matters now, but I think every cashed/cancelled ticket is saved in the machine unless its a tax ticket which tellers hand in manually, the manager should / could have opened it up. Seems very huffy puffy for what was a 5 second fix if calm heads were had.

August 4th 2014. Race 7. Your top play was Rumble Doll. I wasn't looking at the horse to include in my P4. Well I listened, sparking a 4785.00 P4 payout. I thanked you as you were walking out through the backyard. Well, thanks again. All others can ignore your top plays at their peril. Especially at the SPA.

Even A broken clock is right twice a day.

He has several top picks in any given race. There isnt a horse he doesnt like.
I am not sure if he is a handicapper or auditioning for Saturday night live.
Either way he is funny.

Obviously I am not a fan of him. I dont have to be. I find you to be a sharper handicapper than him.

Yeah, you're right. It should be marked (so that it's not paid twice) and inside the machine.

she did open the machine and laid out the tickets...she claimed she couldn't find mine.. when the supervisor showed up, it seems the ticket was right on top of the pile...she lied..
then when the supervisor pointed it out to the teller...she started with this crap...how do we know its his ticket ? yah, i found the ticket on the floor, or someone else gave it to me.....sheesh...

the broad tried to rip me off, plain and simple !!...so did the waiter...lie cheat and steal
