I've probably done 40,000 races as an official ML maker and was rated the 12th most accurate in America by an impartial study. But I still commit grievous errors-usually from rushing through it-that make me want to kick myself.
It's a thankless job. And it's easy to sit back and cherry pick obvious mistakes. I mean, how could you NOT see the wildly innacurate price-point assigned the coupling you mentioned?? I caught it last night.
Sometimes , even an accurate oddsmaker looks back at his work and says to himself: " Sweet Jesus, WHAT was I thinking??"
Btw, I like John, too, and respect him very much. But Hook's vast experience in so many aspects of the game make him uniquely qualified for his duties.
Hope all is well with your wagers and tip card. Had surgery last Wed, but now back in the swing and playing Mvr everyday.
