I certainly could, but as you can see there’s all sorts of resentment about my discussing the racing in Hong Kong around here. That’s probably because over the last 5 years I’ve covered that topic numerous times on various threads on this forum. Unfortunately, many of the negative responses you’re seeing are coming from people who have never played there and don’t have a clue as to what really goes on. As far as I’m concerned it offers the finest overall racing product on the planet.

Of course there are both late dropping and rising odds, but the big difference is that because the size of a typical Win pool for any given race is the MILLIONS of dollars the odds are generally more stable.

More or less that’s correct. After 5 years Benter took an estimated 150 Million in profit to his home in Pittsburgh. There were quite a few syndicates playing then as they are today. I finding it challenging and rewarding at times playing against them. See - "The Gambler Who Cracked the Horse-Racing Code"

Again, I will reiterate there is
NO Exacta betting in HK. You may not see the Value from that perspective, but how about recognizing
real value when playing a Quinella instead. You must know the cost difference between the two. And who said anything about necessarily boxing all 6 selections?
You might get a better idea of why I’m so high on HK racing from just a few recent days posted live for racing at Sha Tin: You might also notice that it isn’t always necessary to box all 6 entries. Using just each of the top 3 Keys with the others works just fine!

If you don't like my methods of playing HK that's just fine!
