The premise going in was one horse, last race on this surface, within a half furlong and 90 days, as suggested by CJ in another thread.
All anyone had to do to bash Beyer was put up his picks, one per race, and beat 34.60 on the day. No one did it. No one tried.

Right. But why were 3 posted per race? And don't say "insurance."
If you were allowed one pick per race that should have been it.
Today was a very chalky day at Pimlico.

No, but would you like to explain to me how the term "ethical" applies?

Altering, reporting incorrect facts or even inferring results that are questionalbe from any experiment or fact finding exersize is a question of ethics.
Just because this is a gambling site, I would hope information that is passed onto others contains some level of truth. Not what one individual wants the results to be.

Once again, what incorrect facts or inferred results are you talking about
specifically?
(p.s. questionalbe? exersize?)

I am sorry if you do not find anything wrong with his post comparing BSF vs Bris. We are not going to agree on this and I am not in the mood the try and explain something to someone who does not want to listen.
I do thank you for your time.

The best method today would have been dominguez to show, all day. He only missed the board once. I wonder if flat bet to place and show on him since january might show a profit? If that is negative, then maybe its only good when hes not in new york

The loss is much worse than that if you include pick3's. I'm an exotics player who never makes a straight bet on horses under 7/2. Despite picking three horses in every race, this system did not produce one pick3. In a couple of races alll of the picks were offf the board. A guy with a dart board might have done better.
When I say that the bsf's have no practical application in this game this is precisely what I am talking about. If you are happy with an occasional $6.80 or $3.40 winner, that's up to you. I want to trake $20, construct a wager from handicapping, and cash for over $10,000. Those are rare but it can be done.
In fairness to the bsf's, the mechanical system probably needs some work. Any surface handicapper would have immediately tossed Super Saver.

The fact remains No One posted their picks ahead of the races except PA. Maybe If PA feels like it, he will do it again on Belmont day and the bashers will get another chance to show up.

You guys are hilarious. The rules were posted and they were clear. Now that Beyer showed a profit with the rules in place, everyone wants to change them.
I suggested the system I did because I knew it would likely do OK in the win spot, nothing else. If you guys want to try exotics next time, I can post a system BEFORE THE RACES that will also do pretty well most of the time.
I can make up a system after the facts to make anyone's selections look like losers when the races are over, and that is exactly what is being done here. It is actually pretty sad really.

What does "OK in the win spot" REALLY mean CJ?
