53) You cant beat the races unless you are highly disciplined, track all of your action, lay off of certain races, focus on a specialty, and have a system to determine when there is value.

So based on what I have learned, I am now treating playing the horses as I used to treat golf. Its my hobby. I know Im not going to break 70, so I will continue to go out and hit balls and spend money on green fees and cocktails.

54. Stay out of the political threads. They're crazy ones out there. Some are very angry people and take it personal.

58. No matter what contest format you put together somone has a different way to do it.

59. The person with the different way to do it won't step up and acutally do it.

60. Learn how to score.

61. Never apologize online , it shows weakness !

62. Always trust the truck driver. He does not know how to be dis-honest, as that requires very specific thoughts.

66. If you're a really good handicapper you don't need a job.
67. To be a really good handicapper you have to treat it like a job.

68. Horse racing is a sport. Betting on it is a game.
