Reminds me of this joke which I think I've posted before.
A man goes to the track and has a system to bet $5 on the favorite and if he wins he puts it all on the next one still betting the favorite. If he loses one he stops and comes home.
One day he wins 8 in a row and has over $10,000. The last race the fav is even money. His horse is leading the whole way and gets tagged at the wire for second.
He goes home and his wife says, "How did it go today honey?" He replies, "Ahh I lost five dollars".
(Actually this is more like Inner Dirts story)
