Cal, I love your "rope a dope" analogy. As one of those ROI players who make the braver plays with my picks and often end up with nothing to show for it, I can certainly identify. Needless to say, my normal real dollar wagering is very different - otherwise would have had to file Chapter 13 long ago. Even that apparent low hanging fruit seems capable of squirting lemon juice in your eye. When the winning solution is too obvious, lots of other horseplayers (or the robot driven syndicates) will have driven the price down to such a low point as to be barely worthwhile.
