It may seem as though I am talking through my wallet here, which I must admit I am to some extent.

I took a double on Thursday, as I always do as the TAB sportsbet are always giving overs at this time. However it was not me laughing at them this week it was them laughing at me.

I took Gabidon into Bon Hoffa. The only problem was that I took Gabidon at $17 and it ended up paying $36 on the best tote. That was into Bon Hoffa at $4.2. Multi Odds were $71.40.

So it was a good winner, but... what could of been.

Oh well a winner is a winner. Does anyone else have any funny stories where you have dived into what you think are overs only to have it come undone?

Making bets when the price is at the top fluctuation is a skill I would love to master. I have success betting at best of tote and SP (Sportsbet, Sportingbet) and I'm sticking with that for now.

I also bet with those agencies with the best of the totes and the top flucuation. I do find though that Thursday's does produce overs as they have not set their markets correctly. E.g. getting $3.6 on Gold Edition in the Manikato.
