Truth be told, I lost it too...

Quote from Ricter:

My understanding of betting the horses is that the tracks takes the biggest vigorish of all in sports betting.

Personally, I do think it's high. But I compensate by being successful in the wagering side of things. Everything is not always a percent of slippage. Anytime $2 yields $14, I don't mind the state having $0.50 or so. My average mutual is about $7.00, which keeps me smiling daily! :)
 
Quote from acronym:

Vigorish? What the heck is that?
remember what happened to the HYIP thread.........I Would like to think, the average punter understands there is not a quid to be had there, and they should be trading instead, but...............

:D

It's why I made sure that I was above average. :)
 
Is there a way to get data for upcoming races automatically into a computer the way you get market data, and if so, can you provide me with a link? Or even better, realtime tote board data over the internet for races being run in a few minutes?

This is not even for the money, it is just a teenage fantasy that I had long ago and I never followed through on it.

Quote from canyonman00:

You need to try the ponies. It makes the whole deal a lot easier. I've enjoyed a ton of success there for the last five years. I even took a year and joined an online service as a handicapper. I had documentable success regularly. I put together a solid track record and had a great following too. It became hard to hit the local OTB's without drawing a crowd.

I stopped giving public selections about a year ago and worked on perfecting my own software. I now have a solid automated setup that will be going through its next morphing over the next two months. It became so successful that I curtailed my stock trading and have been playing ponies exclusively with a good portion of my investment capital. :)
