Never got into the horses seriously, just go to the track with buddies on the weekend and have some drinks and play for really small amounts.
It's funny, I'll have a $1,000 wager going and be completely emotionless, but I put $2-$10 down on a race, and you'd think I put my life savings on it.
It's entertaining, but I could never see myself handicapping it as I do sports.
