and this is great if you have a 100% strike rate

wow ..all this time, i have been programming and studiing the horses form.
and i could be just writing maths. and look, any moment now it pays for itself.

With the maths being that easy, the horses shoudn't be a problem at all
its annoying that how many selections, winners and strike rate come into it.
and of course, the bank does have to be real. as do the bets.
try targeting any percent mechanically in reality....and of course after a few losing bets, I am now chasing my losses, not profits.
Like the 'good times' of easy credit rip offs, you are flat out paying the loan (losses) let alone the principle.

300 races a week, $1 dollar a race = 1200 a month, its as easy as kissing grandma....and even easier for me to type here.

this is again of course is part of SYSTEM THEORY (nothing more) that works so well on past results and on paper ......but just doesnt even have 1 wing, let alone fly irl.
Hey! i have a staking plan to really maximize profits, double the stake on every 5th bet, coz this is how they fell last year. and look on paper it works.

whether you target 1%, 10% or 69%...there are losses and runs of outs.

why not aim, to make just 1 cent the 1st day, and double it till you become a millionaire , 1,2,4,8,16,32,64,$1.28 ...i think i will run out of yellow brick road first..because i am picking up the 'yellow' bricks and selling them to system punters to pay the rent each month.

E. i just re-read my post. maybe i am a bit harsh, but with much toungue in cheek,.... systems can be fun, specially in syndicates - but never long term profitable.
