excellent call

Variables aside, it's hard to argue with a winning ticket, congratulations.

Some time ago I was accused of being the luckiest handicapper alive; I had just won another bet on a questionable DQ. Of course he was correct, but what he missed is that I put myself in a position to be lucky!

I met Robert - aka - Dap Daddy, more than thirty years ago at our local oval. This is an accomplished handicapper, who was willing to listen to my explanation of why the horse he was about to wager on didn't match-up in this particular race. He returned a few races later to point out that a horse being offered at 9-1 in this later race seemed to match-up particularly well. He was right; I had missed it, it seems I was hoisted on my own petard. My pick three ticket ended up on the floor, while he cashed a ticket.

Congratulations again, so many handicappers I've met talked in Hundreds, but bet with twentys, you're the exception.
