    I try to get 5/1 on my win bets.I guess the lowest I would go is 3/1 but I don't bet to win that much.Mostly when there is an overwhelming favorite that I think is vulnerable will I put a decent win bet.

    i think it should be about value... even money sucks if you think the horse should be 5/2.. but if you think he should be 3/5. even money is fantastic.

    It is literally impossible to win at a high enough percentage to justify betting even money favorites.You are way better off betting Red/Black on a roulette wheel.
