MG, how many winning days in a row up until yesterdays accidents?

I ask because theres probably a fair argument to be made for either suspending betting after X amount of winning days in a row, or even start backing them to win for a short period.

The only thing I really know about laying is you can't stop them winning You look to have a profitable method but it will still bite you now & then, as you well know.

There was 6 successive winning days.

I suppose it's like in roulette waiting for red or black to be successful for a certain amount of spins and then change colour relying on the law of averages.

It might have some logic but I wouldn't get a kick out of doing that.

Yeah, but are we here to make money or get a buzz on? If moneys not the motivation then I get it, but otherwise...

Simple motto I use - 'whatever it takes' - unfortunately it is also Essendon FC's slogan this year but that's another story

My motivation is to make money and also get a rush from it.

However I don't at the moment get the same buzz from backing that I do from laying.

A good day - from the 19 selections there were 19 smiles for an excellent profit of $420.94 mainly thanks to Geraldton 2/8.

The aim should not be to make money. The aim should be to make the right decisions that, then, leads to money being made.

And you can quote me on that.

Of course everyone gets a rush from money jumping into their betting bank but I bet they get more satisfaction at the way they arrived at their pick to win or lose the race for them or, for me, that I traded right therefore winning on a particular race.

Whatever you are doing in life, whether you are using rules, systems, trading, etc, you first need to make the right decisions before you can make money.

Laying requires a different mindset from backing. Backing longshots is having a series of small losses with a good winner here and there. Laying longshots is lots of small wins with a large loss now and then. You know the losses are coming and you have to accept them. If a person can't do that he shouldn't be laying.
