However, when the big dog had only 5 pts on the horse I wasn't about to put 11 points to win on myself. Why ?? If your strategy is 5% what others bet is irrelevant. Maybe at some point you will learn to understand correct staking it's another reason you will always lose , 24pts theoretically lost . You bet with scared money. Prime example today 1pt win , 8 advised , an ew bet when straight win advised . Scared money , scared to lose Zilzalian 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Prime example today 1pt win , 8 advised , an ew bet when straight win advised . Scared money , scared to lose In theory I should have placed 48 points today (4 x 12). You are right I am scared about upping the ante with my bets. ATM I am betting with RW profits which were around 40 points at the start of the day. @richard-westwood has changed tack today by arranging his bets so as to make the same profit whichever horse wins. He has not done this before. He usually has straight amounts on each horse. There is nothing wrong with what he is doing but I hate putting extra money on short-priced favourites; this is usually a bad idea and when I have tried this in the past I have built up losses. Hence I just had a cover bet on the horse and hoped his other selection would win. He was unlucky with Spirit Catcher as the horse got carried out by a riderless horse. I make it that he lost -30.29 points today. I lost -7.07 points (should have been -8.07 but I forgot to back Meisher to place). I suppose I'm a bit like the cowardly lion in The Wizard of Oz who sought courage. I didn't want to squander my 40 points profit in one day so please forgive me yossa6133 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It is impossible to get 4 from 4 without the first 2 or 3 winning and that's how the bookies play with your head by dangling the carrot. Lees got an allotment he just luurves those carrots 🤣😁 and fair play to him he doesn't hide from it because i think he is the type of bloke that can get over it in a short time, me i would still be scowling in my grave. 😁 Edited July 23, 2023 by Zilzalian LEE-GRAYS, MCLARKE, Craig bluenose and 3 others 5 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

(i think they're both still open) Group of us used to go 4-5 times a year, mainly for a beer and scampi in a basket, but used to be quite a fun night out.

Works xmas parties were very popular at the dogs as were birthdays anniversaries etc. I think the welsh are well along the way to banning it at the moment but the antis managed to close Belle Vue down and they will be working on most the tracks now putting dogs to death and people out of work. Funny story- a woman was arguing with me one day that dogs were not meant to run around such tight turns so i asked her how many hares and rabbits ran in a straight line and she went into melt down.
