Does anybody watch every race every day? Retired or bed ridden, etc?

I would pay for someone to create a service where they would twitter bridge jumpers.


There were two tonight where the bridge jumper missed.

Mountaineer Race 6: Show prices: 12.20, 6.80, 14.20
Charlestown Race 4: 12.80, 8.60, 17.20

There was one yesterday at Belmont. But the horse barely finised third.

There was one yesterday at Belmont. But the horse barely finised third.It is an interesting idea. I was at local Native American casino that has OTB tonight. I cashed BOTH the $12.20 & $12.80 horses -- and each actually won its respective race! My grandmother taught me to look for these betting show pools at Southland Greyhound Park in West Memphis, Arkansas in 1970s.

Several other short price winners romped home at Lone Star & Penn National. However, I had never caught two bridge jumper races, and hits, in such brief period of time. It offset my video poker losses. :cool:

It's funny you should bring this up. I remember thinking the same thing back in the autumn when there was a spate of bridgejumper activity at Mountaineer. I think whoever started a service like this might be surprised at the positive response. I know I'd sign up for it.

I'm pretty sure that ATR can be configured to alert you to these situations.

Getting that many people to dole out money for a service like that could really kill alot of the value from that.

I bet bridge jumpers would LOVE for you to start such a service.

I don't watch every race everyday-----But I am Pre retired Totally Disabled--I have no problem alerting anyone to a Bridge Jumper for the sum off $0.00--

I use Twitter I have put it on there---Its just so damned tough if someone puts 40K to show 1 minute before the race--By the time its typed its C'Ya--

I Pay much closer Attention Monday thru Friday and depending on how I feel---

I am on Twitter--IONCEWAS You can see I'm a little bitter to what happened to me.Thats life.


--Whoever wants to can follow and if I see A Jumper I will do my best and post it-----Before I just PM'd some friends and tell them--Half the time-No 75% of the time they were not around---

Again no problemo for me-

There was another one day. These seem to be happening more frequently. Horse almost ran out of the money. GG - Race 8. Massone. He got 3rd, but it was a slow pace. 55K in the show pool on him.

How anyone could throw 55k on a horse to show that had never run on the turf is beyond me.

i work from home and basically watch every race every day. I go to the gym and crap too so not EVERY race but the vast majority of them.

I'm ont so sure I couldnt' prrogram something like that if people would be geniounly interested in that type of product to warrant my time and energy

I always wonder how they get all their money down...

It can be hard enough up here to try and get a teller to sell you a $1000 voucher...

What kind of limits (if any) do the ADWs have?

...sure would be nice to know how they manage to get all that money down in seemingly one tick of the tote board? :confused:

I wonder how they even get that much cash. I doubt a banks going to say sure you want $50,000 cash today here you go. I think they would have to take out say $10,000 a day til the bank says no more. I also wonder whos taking their bets as it seems like a lot of times the show bets come in all at once rather then someone getting to the track early and punching in show bets.

I bet bridge jumpers would LOVE for you to start such a service.Why would it make a difference to them one way or the other? They're either going to get their $2.10 or tap out, regardless of what anyone else is doing.

oh i see.

becuase say there is 200k in a pot, and I make a program that links 1,000 to a potential bridget jumper and they all put money in the pot. that guy is going to get more than 2.10 potentially

Just out of curiosity at what point would the show pool gain bridge jumper
status ?

How often do these kind actually run out? 10%? 15%?

If such a service ever got 1,000 subscribers, I sure hope PA gets a piece of that action.

But even so, unless we're talking about a race at Yavapai where a "bridgejumper" means one horse has $5,000 on him instead of $50, the $2.10 payout isn't going to be moved.

I would think when 90-95% of the show pool total is wagered on one entry.

according to richard perloff, tvg analiysiss specialist, betting against bridegjumping is the most profitable bet in all of horse racing. he bets against the bridgejump every single time and claims to win. his bridgejumping show air's every monday and tuesday at tvg. he will let you know ahead of time when its time to jump in the water.

Did he indicate how many opportunities he is presented with each yr? In the past, it seems like the opportunities have been few and far between. But recently at some of the smaller tracks, it appears like the opportunities are almost nightly. Do you have any thoughts on why that is? Or are my past memories just incorrect?

that is a great question. i would say that people are fed up with the past post betting, so if they bridgejump they precisely what the payoff is going to be even if the horse they play gets past posted or not.

recently i have seen alot of mistakes in the bridgejump horse bets. there are alot that would never qualify in my mind, yet you see lots of money on them. some. some horses are all or nothing yet take alot of show dough.

Well Almost every Monday and Tuesday there are multiple B Jumpers---I swear one guy does it in spite of Perloff. I can not tell you how many times I caught A Jumper at the End of Perloff's shift--

I also catch em--When They come on the load--Unless you have a great system a split screen that track dailed up--You'd never get it-But its a good propasition---Anyone who really does want to start this and they need a set of eyes---Please get in touch with me..

Missed one today. Wow.

5/25/09 FL Race 8

1-5 finishes out of the money. Strangest betting race I've ever seen.

5 horse field.

Show prices: 11.60, 19.40, 18.60

Bridgejumper gets burned.

Exacta only pays 18.70
Tri only pays 47.25

3-1
15-1
6-1

I know it is only a five horse field, but give me a break. With the 1-5 finishing out of the money it should have paid a lot more. Someone may say the 1-5 was not accurate odds as someone may have poured money in the win and show pools, but the horse did look to be at least 1-2 on paper. Looks fishy to me.

I've been tinkering around in visual basic and I am 100% confident I can do this as a program. the only snag I have is I need to find a live feed for odds. If I can do that I can create a program that automatically checks.

Why check the odds? It's the show pools you want to have the program check, right?

I don't need the odds from the odds feed, I need the pools from the feed. it all comes from the same feed.
