It's tough for sure, especially if you had keyed into some nice winners and got the "ALL" or refund or shut-out instead.

+1 If I wanted to get serious about sports betting, then I'd just steer my efforts to the financial markets. The ponies are much more interesting, even with the problems in the sport.

Wow. If I'm reading Dave's post correctly, Chippewa Downs comes in at the top of the heap in terms of reliability?

That pretty much describes the typical horseplayer these days. A glutton for punishment, if nothing else.

I would argue that low sales don't necessarily equate to "worse" when it comes to the housing market. The correct word is "lowest sales". Sure, it's worse for the banksters and the realtors and the...
