...we have:

Ai yi yi!

I was making one horse value bets tonight. Can't complain. I did well hitting my first bet at PEN paying $8.20, and my second bet at WO paying $13.70. Those were both in their respective first races.

Then I had a bunch of misses...then a $12.60 hit here and a $15.20 pop there. It was like that...losing most of the bets, but hitting some good ones along the way to more than offset the losers, keeping me gradually going up and up the profit ladder.

At the end of the night I had a bear of time with CT's ninth race. I was torn between #5 and #2, both were nice overlays with two minutes to post. I put $20 to win on #5.

For the tenth race I faced a similar dillema between the #5 and #4 horses. With one minute to go I finally made my move and tossed a $20 on #5.

If this were Let's Make A Deal I'd be riding a donkey home.

One good thing though, I'm glad this happened at the end of the night instead of the beginning of the night. What was that about psychology?
