Horse racing betting is the most stupid gamble thing.

[WireWire]

Tough game no doubt. all the choices to make and the rake is a killer. But the new wave are the tourney sites like Horse tourneys and Derby Wars. lowers the rake and solid bang for your buck. You can get action for up 8-12 races for $12 and less and win upwards to 1K. and those are the average games. Some player scored a 200K victory on a $1500 buy in game this summer on horse tourneys. There are feeder games involved to qualify for less. Overall a great game, and in moderation it's all good. I think the tourney sites help one accomplish that. BOL to anyone playing.

Horse racing match up so you’re only edge anything else please just do it for entertainment purposes only or you’ll lose everything and jump off a bridge

Jump off a bridge he says... which one?

More Horse Racing Stupidity. Im Going back to the track Lone Star in Dallas on July 9 and 10th a Friday and Saturday.I was looking forward to a great Friday and Saturday Night out. Post times are 2.30pm.Why are they having racing on a Friday at that time when it is going to be a 100 degrees.So Dumb.

Horse racing just isn’t well regulated and the vig is too high, it’s not a good market.

They say it’s a game for the degenerate gambler

This is why I only play the races that I feel confident in and also that I have a high shot of winning

I do the full card to create my selections but in the end you will only see me bet between 2-4 races max sometimes less

The bets I focus on are WPS along with Exacta and Superfecta I don't do doubles unless I have 2 solid selections that would make up a double and for the Pick 3's 4's 5's 6's I don't bother because I would rather save money and focus on the bets I can hit

I also only focus on 2-3 tracks per year and that is Oaklawn Park from January-may Woodbine from April-December and Hong Kong from September-July sometimes I will look at Remington Park but not this year I am thinking of looking at Woodbine instead

Here is my Top 10 checklist that I have followed throughout my handicapping career :
1) Focus on bets you have a high chance of winning or have had success with in the past
2) DON'T bet every race! You will lose more money this way
3) Focus on 1-3 tracks and get familiar with everything about the track (track bias/jockeys-trainers owners/posts etc)
4) Keep a honest betting record (hencing #1 for winning bets)
5) Have a good sized bankroll that you can play with; once your up or have lost it all DON'T REINVEST
6) Use good past performances that you are used to; even it's the track program
7) Start you handicapping with focusing on the favourite; if vulnerable you have a excellent race to handicap for VALUE!
8) To find my contenders I will use Brisnet's Prime Power or ProfitLine and then handicap those horses ONLY
9) After the races are done look at the horses who have won today and see if you can pick up anything that could be useful next time
10) DON'T play while you are intoxicated

#8 on the list is a iffy on because not everyone uses Brisnet pp's or has access to ProfitLine so it could be a Top 9 checklist vs Top 10

Thanks

Some guys lie to themselves believing you can make a career betting horses lol

OP has the most bewildering post of this lengthy thread. Watches thoroughbred racing but doesn't bet a penny on it? Right, nothing more entertaining than watching a group of horses running around an oval 9x over a five hours period or so, with no financial stake. Let me finish reading the last two hundred pages of this 1989 phone book directory and I'll continue. Oh, he's an owner I get it.
