Jamcool,
why would you want to couple 1&2????Are you for real??If they are your 2 main chances why would you not couple them?If they are your 2 strongest selections,you MUST couple them.Thats my point about betting to prices.You can still take your standouts with as many other runners as you wish,but to cover your ******** you must couple your main 2,it is sheer madness not too.
E.G.
You take 1/3-4-5-6
2/3-4-5-6
for 1 unit=$8 as suggested by Baghwan
You have not covered your main 2 selections,where is the sense in that??
If you are confident enough to stand out 2 selections,surely you take those 2 for 5 or 10 units one out.
There is a misconception about value in quins.If you choose to look for bolters,you are going down the gurgler.The overlays lie in the shorter end of the market,which seems to be where you guys are not prepared to look.
You will not win long term boxing .Look at what I posted late Sat. arvo,using Fridays prepost market,prepost fav with next 5 in the betting,2 races with next 8.Hit 3 out of 6,POT close to 20%.Whats wrong with that??Boxing and chasing roughies is for the herd mentality,it just does not happen with quinellas often enough.
How often will your main 2 picks run 1/2,and your not on??
That is if you are not hoping for a 20/1 shot to win.
And yes,I do have a headache,from trying to explain to you guys what you cannot seem to grasp.
No wonder Becareful,Chromeprince,ossuldj,equineinvestor,myse lf and others dont post on a regular basis anymore,weve all got ************ headaches!!!!
