Thanks for that Bhagwan.
Hey Maurice,
You sound like a gambling purist.
How about offering something constructive instead of just bagging everyone?
Not meaning to assume or insult of course.

Actually not bagging anyone, only giving my opinion on systems in general and each interest as it presents....there is nothing personal in this, sorry to anyone that can't seperate that.
maybe , or not..I am being contstructive, being realistic and not promoting systematic betting. but i am open to read other ideas and comment on them.......as in a forum, or interactive blog.

System :we all follow the rules to the letter, and we all back the same horse(s).
staking methods aren't actually systems. although haggling over terms isnt really important.

Hi crash.
instant bank or a dead relative, old aunt so and so
now can try the old kick and chase....
usually leaves the punter looking for a sleeping tablets , a pillow and uncle so and so. ;)

E. I think i will stick to the ABBA forum, where i dispute that dancing queen was NOT the best song and that SOS is....
you disagree? i am really and total personally offended ......grrr i can hear the drums Fernando.

Hey Maurice,
Fair enough, you're entitled to an opinion.
If you're not a fan of systems how do you select your horses?

Think I asked that question as well....twice.

There are other ways to pick winners besides dumb-waiter systems. Personally I've switched to the 'throwing of the stones' method recently after a disastrous turn of events with the Tarot cards!

That is true crash, I prefer form.
These systems are all new to me.
Just trying to get some information.
I figured this might have been a good place to start.

Maurice I have to agree with you re. rigid "systems".

I have studied many, developed by myself and others, and found that
while your selection may qualify according to your rules, the upcoming race will be completely different than the last race your selection contested.
How do you reconcile that?

I think punters may have a better chance selecting the numbers in a lottery that way.

'---------
However when it comes to Dancing Queen, mate, you have a lot of nerve to speak of it like that! LOL.

Bit off topic and irrelevant, I know, sorry mods.

Personal computerized hcp'ing, to sort the wheat from the chaff, then good old fashioned form study (although done also on computer), then betting via a personal interface.

choosing the horses is 1/3, the right way to bet is another 1/3 and then luck is the other.....hopefully you can be right 2/3 ;)

I bet all type sdepending on the race and situation in question
i like exotics ...quaddies,tri's ffours, etc etc..BUT also even win bet specials

mmmmm something constructive for Gnarkley.
. dont chase losses ...GA and the flop houses of railway districts of capital cities are full of people who didnt know when to stop.
. dont be mechanical .do you own work. study form
. if you have the cash , but a database..find out what makes racing tick.
. have fun with it, once its painful..quit..(even for a day)
. read books on hcp'ing


oh and dont be afraid of singing along with Abba :) money money money

Also Gnarkley, don't tell people that you are a system bettor and you win, over a long period of time.They will howl you down, ridicule you, eventually if you keep espousing the word of the devil, they will burn you at the stake.

But always remember, there is more than one way to skin a cat.

Top Rank,
Thanks for the warning.

Maurice,
Thankyou.
Your form of extreme constructivism is music to my ears, unlike S.O.S. I'm afraid.
