    So this guy had $341.60 in total winnings. We've all gone on nice streaks..All you have to do is turn $180 bucks into $341.60 over 3 days picking from 8 tracks. I'm going to get into this next year for sure.

    3416 points from 15 bets of 20wp each day. $20 WP x 15 plays per day = $1800 starting bankroll. 2nd place finisher had 3292 points

    I just broke it down to two dollar bets to make it look easier.

    i wonder how many winners the guy actually had or he could have had 5 or 6 longshots . he says in the interview he dont gamble much at all.
    im curious to see how many winners and what his horse payouts were? can we find that out?

    no problem brother..I think the way to approach this contest is to put 600 bucks in your pocket each day of the contest. When you feel like making a bet..Pull out 40 of it and say to yourself..Is this worth a 40 dollar bet. If you can't answer it with a resounding yes. Then sit back down and wait until the next bet.

    I feel the best way is to take some regular payouts of 4-1/6-1 and take a shot with about 5 plays a day. Hit a lot of your 10 plays a day keeps you in contention.

    Suprised people ended up with zero. Hopefully they didnt show up and not actually not winning a single race.

    Those whom ended up with zero most surely went with mid to high-priced longshots and missed them all, which can happen when betting that way.

    to have a realistic chance to bring home a check and have a chance to win it all you generally need on average about 17% winners at an average price of about 14/1

    Bart Solomon is a liar he had said that he was a last minute sign up. But his contest number was 219 and over 300 contestants had free qualified from placing in other contests throughout the year. The orleans assigns numbers from low to high.
