Result R5

3-4-1-7

I played my picks in a 10 cent super box which hit but paid crap. $13 for a dime. I keyed the 1 cause he was best price of my 4 contenders ,but needed him 2nd. Made $4 profit. :jump:

R6 Results

1-7-6-5

Now -$5 for the day. (I usually average about $10 a race).2 chalk ran 1-2. I keyed my shot #3 @ 10-1. Allthough I lost,it was the right bet.I'd play it again.

R7 results

7-2-4-8

More chalk. Put $16 in the race,got back $18. Phew!Now down $-2 for day. Keyed the #1 abit @21-1. Nada. Also Keyed the winner.

Allthough this may look like an effort in futility,I equate it to fishing. Its a waiting game...for the nice one.

They should call it Chalkland. After R9 down $7. But have the p4 going with my key horses as stated above for 50c. Cost me a whopping $2. Too bad they dont have pinnacle anymore.Alot of times I break even but churn about $100 per track.

Summary:

Top ranked horse won 4 out of 8 races returning $35 for $16 invest.

Key horses won 3 out of 11 keyed horses for $19.80 after $22 invest.

Total invest $38. Return $54.80. 44% ROI

Move over Whobet,Anderon and Mountaneer PA et al.<G>

But seriously,another case of good handicapping,and poor betting.
