I will have to start with a $4,000 bankroll
I will be betting large amounts because I will try to simulate needing to make a dependable profit each month with as little risk as possible that is liveable on.

Delaware R3 #2 Poppy's Punkin $50 win $100 place $10 ex box 2/6
Fairmount R4 #7 Party Dance $100 place and show $10 ex box 1/7

Total days play totals $390 Hopefuly a good start. :cool:

Totaling the week up later. Please don't criticize my picks if you noticed I posted that at 4am. I am playing these with real money. About 25% of what I put in here. The bets are large here because I am trying to see how possible it is to win enough to live off of.

Salty, good luck today but if a few losing wagers affects you, perhaps you are risking to much money for your comfort level or gambling might not be for you.

These wagers are just to test profitability. In real money it was about the worst week I have had in 2 years, of course my best week ever is followed by my worst week. At least i made back a portion of my losses with turbulent descent and tar heel mom. Trust me I can handle losing money, I have had a lot of practice. :cool:

OKay had to take a break but back to try some more.

I think I lost sight of my price target and started playing too many races without enough homework. I finally have time to put together some decent plays and I am focusing on suffolk downs.


My last rounds of bets totaled $1376
I only got back $156
for - $1220
My bankroll was 5,333.60
So now I am almost back at square 1 with a bank of $4,113.30
