The Bill Varone "Tick pad"

To be honest I couldn't tell you Froggy. Those records are long gone and it's been over a year since I stopped using it.

I can say that my most PROFITABLE tier on bl/bl using the software for YEARS was tier THREE.

I NEVER bet off models/corrolaries with any success. I used bl/bl and the e/l graph to find winning patterns as well as negative ones(especially good with favs). I value bet as others here have also described and did not look for the "best horse" Froggy.

Bill made these little pads we called "tick pads" and we used them for YEARS when we hooked up at the Meadowlands. It consisted of THREE things

1) Bl/bl rank
2) V/dc rank
3) E/l graph

we would hide to top 5 line score/tot energy and those 5 would be entered along with the above ifo on the tick pad for each race. It was a "sheet" for each race that when the race ended we just tossed away! Serious.

Bill had the idea for them and from such simplicity came VERY good results.
