Cincy, That whole paragraph is full of good advice.
I don't play a lot of pick 4s at this point.
When I liked to play with cash-on-hand at the track or OTB, I'd look to string together my opinions to chalk in the last leg. Then, if alive, I had the option of hedging with longer prices that left a good outcome either way. This strategy increases hit%, but isn't something I'd want to do regularly.
I basically agree with the principles that Cincy implies above ^ Value, and Ticket Structure.
