When you go to the races, what kind of wagers do you put the majority of your money into?

Tough one, Glen---I like to keep my options open any more...what, with Tomcat's book and all. Still a majority of my bets are Win, but have cashed a few by taking that low priced favorite into an exacta. It amazes me how many of them pay over $24 for the exacta! Thanks Tom!

At this point there are 60 views on this post, but only 10 votes.....hmmmm? Interesting to see the number of lurkers here! Could never see that from the other board!

BOL!

Donnie;

I've noticed the view counts as well and am guessing that about 40 +% of the views are being tallied by the active posters revisiting the thread every time they see a new post added to it.

Would be interesting to see what the tally would be if the board could be set up to tally only unregistered user views.

Or,..we could post a topic like:" Free food, drinks and exotic entertainment." and see what kind of activity that spawns;)

Interesting idea Ron...guess we'll have to save that for LV!.

Glen,
I voted Win only but that isn't really the case at all. I usually start the process looking at a race thinking win only. As the tote progresses I may move to a different postion or see a different play. I suppose we all do that. I agree with Donnie..Tomcats book has changed some otherwise unplayable races into profit.

Keep two different bankrolls.

1) Youbet-Currently playing win only on daily spot plays.
2) At the track funds-Mostly Tri's, some exactas, a couple P3's using non Youbet funds ...
