So , I doubt he bets horses under 3-1....and doesn't chance those $20 horses
Lets say about a $10 avg payout
he wins 9 out of 12......
lets take $5000 as his normal bet....
5000 on a $10 winner= $25,000
25,000 x 9 = 225,000
12 x 5000 tot bets = 60,000
----------------------------
Profit = 165,000
there it is!!!!!...
now let me bother someone else

You are conceptually correct mikesal, but overshooting for that particular year. His average W odds are about 5-1 and he only pulls the trigger when his confidence level is very high that the public is making an error in judgement. Worth noting that year for him was significantly impeded by an extremely serious hospital stay.
Tom, I enjoy your comments, but in this case I am certain your SS income never compares to what he customarily pulled down. He's what I consider a big player. The amount I risk in a month is less than he spends on a single W play.
As for the cost of ValueCapper, you only need to hit one race pretty well to more than cover the purchase price. Part of the Pizzolla education is learning to avoid gambling, while recognizing and maximizing the investment opportunity.
During my 30 day trial I missed on some plays, but hit one for $28+ on a horse I wouldn't have considered were it not for the software's method of identifying horses with potential to win. Pizzolla himself told me he thought my winning choice was "a reach". LOL.
