Wagering free of emotion / my first step
Closing my Brisbet account. Will no longer be able to watch races. Anyone who knows me presonally knows this is a HUGE step for me. Have always watched the races I bet for over 20 years. NO MORE.
Emotion free wagering. MY biggest obstacle. MY biggest weakness. Richie |

Hi Richie,
From reading your posts, I always thought you played from the track anyhow...Meadowlands, I believe? Anyhow, let me know how the experiment goes. I presume you will still access a good online tote board for value purposes? Jim |

Richie,This could be a big mistake as well.By watching the races you can pick up any type of track bias and any troubled trips that may point you to horses in the future.Jeff

Track bias and the different beliefs and interpretations of it are a bitch. One of the best things to come from Bill's site here is meeting you Jeff. I mean that. In person you really are one of the nicest and most sincere people ANYONE could meet. The ONLY thing stopping YOU from big profits Jeff is your struggle with " answering your own questions". That is YOUR biggest weakness without doubt. You are EXTREMELY talented when it comes to racing. Once you can do the above there will be NO stopping you. You are one of the sharpest interpreters of form I have ever seen and your ability to read the race conditions and apply that to contenders is second to NO ONE. luv Richie |

I stopped going to the track on a regular basis in October. I have been to the Meadowlands I think a total of 3 times since then. Before I would go 3-5 days a week. Been doing all my betting online as things got tight cash wise and I am able to save like 200 beans a month in travel expenses to and fro. I am gonna do ALL my wagering off the morning line and in advance once I get the scratches so live odds will be no factor. I am SCARED because I have NEVER wagered like this but it is time now. VERY scared to be honest as this is totally uncharted area for me. I am gonna follow some sound advice given by Dick Schmidt years ago relating to bankroll size. I am starting with a $200.00 bank for this endeavor and will NOT add to it under ANY condition. If I lose it it will be 6 months before I can try again. I am planning to start on 4/1 Jim. I will let you know what develops whether good or bad man. stay cool Richie |
