Just go play the lotto if you can't do the work, you don't deserve to win.

Make no mistake...almost all of those horseplayers who "do their own work" end up on the losing side too. Appearances are deceiving in this game...and this goes TRIPLE for the internet.
If a year-long handicapping contest were to take place on this board, where each entrant was asked to make, say, a thousand wagers...the results would be truly enlightening. But, as it stands right now...there is nothing to stop anyone here from declaring that "he is a winner", because he "does his own work".
We all know that the long-term winners in this game are rare...but I think it would SHOCK us to find out just how "rare" they really are.
