Why has a new friend turned so mean, when all everyone has tried to do is be helpful to him , to improve his funny little system.

He seems to snap at every helpful hand offered.

Only arrogant people, who dont know any better, do that.

It appears the Bhagwans polite warnings to our new friend, were treated with contempt.

Retrabution will now be swift .

However you just may be the exception to the rule and I wish you good luck with it.

Darky,

I agree, to make a living from the punt you need to turn over quite a lot each year. And anywhere from 3 - 7% POT would be a great outcome on large turnover.

What i find interesting though, is that you say you have been betting for many many years. Wouldn't this long period have allowed you to build up a sufficient enough bank to reach the turnover you need.? If you were a winning punter over all those years, you would have built your bank to allow enough turnover like you suggest above.

So perhaps Mr Barry is right. Maybe it's just that you can't win at this game.

Making money on the punt is relatively easy BUT you wont make decent money unless your outlaying very large amounts of money and turning that money over constantly with a large volume of bets.
And even then there is no garuntee.
No Professional bets 1 horse a race as the fairy tale system sellers and other dills tell you.
Most of the well known and abused form factors are total rubbish and most of the big payers are just lucky horses on the day.
There is nothing scientific in betting on horses.
Its not the easy road to riches and in my opinion would be the most mind numbing job the good lord ever invented for greedy fools.

In saying that I know no one will accept what I,ve written so its a pointless argument.

Now being somewhat of a dill myself I will bet Taree R 5 H 2 - 3 - 4 - 5 - 9 - 11 - 12 BUT I want a minimum of $8 about any of them.
Cheers
darky

Yes, that's what i said. To make serious money from punting you need to turnover serious money. And if you have a large enough bank with a method that has a winning edge, it is not as hard as you think.

Your claim that NO professional punter ever backs only 1 horse per race is completely FALSE.

There are many people out there making a living from the punt and there would be not 2 of them that use the same method. There is plenty of winning methods out there.

Do you know every single person out there who makes a living from the punt? If not, how can you claim that none of them ever back just 1 horse a race?

If you find betting on horses so mind numbing, why are you always writing on horse racing forums?

It is quite clear you have never been able to win at this game, so what you are you are trying to contribute to this punting forum is quite confusing?

darkydog2002 26th October 2010 03:17 PM

As I said its pointless to argue with newcomers to the punt.
I post to educate whats important to consider when looking at a horse
i.e weight /leader or races on the pace/Horse Profiling /The stupidity of betting 1 horse a race etc etc.
I also post wacky ,crazy systems to make a point.The point being that most of the yearly profit come from pure luck and not from some so called scientific infallible method of race horse handicapping.
In the race I mentioned consider why you,d bet a $1.70 Horse when you could bet bet 6 other horses for the place and make a better profit.

Personally I think your looking for a argument and frankly I,m just not interested.

First of all Darky, i'm new to this forum. But I am not new to the punt.

I make money from it and know several others who do as well.

I also am not looking for an argument, but rather an intelligent debate on your FALSE claims. But it is obvious you are unable to do this.

I don't think anyone here would really be too interested in hearing about how you select your horses considering you are a long-term losing punter.

It's never too late to learn Darky, if you learnt how to listen better you may have more success on the punt.

The fact is, just because you are unable to win, it does not mean no-one else can. There are many out there doing it.

Crikey darky !
 
You couldn't be more wrong me thinks. I only ever bet one runner per race, and it's always the fave. This is all I do to make a quid and one of the most important things in my book is to come up with a system that isn't mind numbing. Keep it simple is a great idea.

What Lighthuman says about the bank build up is fundamental to betting largish sums per race. If it's money you've earned from the punt then as the bank grows so do the wagers and yet there is no stress. If it were outside money put in then that's just gambling.....hard to win long term at gambling.
