Only pretend money though , because I don't trust people in Real Life , much less on the internet, that claim situations are as brilliant , or in your case Darky, as dire , and I figure I would be a bigger fool to do so than I already am.

But if the bloke did win, I would like to know how he did it so I could apply the reasoning to my studies.
No great loss to my situation really whether he does depart except for the entertainment value really.
And Darky, I not really much amused by your numerous posts, but I do appreciate that you help keep this Forum alive by doing so.

Letters and Numbers systems is silly because horses ain't been to school.
Trigger is the only horse what can count and Mr. Ed is the only one what can read and neither are Thouroughbreds.

Oh dear Moeee, you now show your colours again with your next post.
Moeee if you are betting still with the TAB mate either you are an absolute genius and most books have closed you down or an absolute fool like you state you are.
I think we all know the answer Moeee.

Yeah I was a bit rude responding to his own rudeness.
I tend to take no prisoners in my responses.
I too wish him well and I too am recording the selections from today (flat stakes)
My initial thoughts are that there would need to be a very high strike rate to compensate for the prices but only time will tell.
In the meantime its all good fun in the recording and keeps the old brain active.

Post deleted. Flaming.

Day 3

Bets 59... Hits= 12....S/R 20.34%...Rets. 55.10 Win/Lose -3.9.. LOT 6.61%

Average price of winners = $4.49

2-300 bets would indicate expected profitability, but its about 1000bets when a bad day hardly causes a ripple on the stats.

And as I've said several times 1 bad day, or even a bad month should not cause too much concern after many thousands of bets with a proven plan.

Thank PP for your update mate, very helpful for you to do this for me.

And Darky I must appologise for going at you me old mate, hopefully we can put it behind us old pal and get on with winning.

Good on you Mr Barry.
Cheers
darky

Will be no post of bets tomorrow as I am out of town.

The late Ian Barnes said He,d be ecstatic with a POT of 4 % but was never able to achieve that long term.
The Late Don Scott achieved 5 % longterm but in his day he was the very best.
Re Barry .He may have animosity towards me because after 44 years I know whats real and he cant yet accept that.He will in time I,m sure.
I,m sorry if I,ve burst his bubble but he,s not just the only one who reads this post and better to know now than be constantly striving to achieve the impossible.

I can show you several threads where people have made more then 4% over a lot of bets. Maria for instance. It can be done and it is done by clever people. Whether Mr Barry is one s still to be proven ... mayb he is ... more then likely he falls into the 95% of punters though but until I see a few hundred bets I won't make any judgement.
