Big day today......Wood Memorial looks very wide open to me......undefeated favorite could miss the trifecta......even more wide open and potential lucrative is the Blue Grass....Pletcher's 20-1...

Maybe I am mixing up my people on this board, so apologies in advance if I have confused you with somebody else.

Aren't you the same guy who wanted to celebrate Peter Falcone and buy him a steak...

6/8 probably pays like 1500
6/5 guessing pays like 800[/QUOTE]

I miscalculated before. My guess now is that the 6-8 should pay around $40 or so which would be $2k to you. The 6-5 probably pays...

I did 6 / 5,8 exactas for $100 a piece.

If it hits 6/8 probably pays for a WSOP buyin[/QUOTE]

Maybe not a Main Event buy in, but for sure any $5k buy in with travel expenses covered.

Good luck. He is a real nice horse. He has the misfortune of being in a ridiculously tough race, but he could definitely do it and be there. No offense, but I hate your choice of jockeys. I can...

This horse can do it. He is no guarantee of course, but he has a way better chance than any of the others for a long time. Only horse I can recall with a chance as good as his that did not do it...

What a race! Best Derby in my lifetime. If you cannot love this race, you have no interest in horseracing.

I like Materiality and Upstart. They put out ridiculous efforts in the Florida Derby. ...

I do not normally like favorites, but I do not recall seeing a standout of this magntidue in a breeders cup race in a long time. The baffert second choice does not have to hit the superfecta and...

I like Vicar's in Trouble best and most likely to hit the super.

After that, i have a hard time choosing between Samraat and Dance with Fate....both of which look very strong and solid and if not...

The idiot straight flush draw is not better than 50% against a higher straight flush draw

Shows how tough this game is.....you correctly tossed the favorite and second choice in a 14 horse field and you still could not get a piece of the exacta. I am in the same boat as you. Was licking...

Agreed that this is a superb betting race. As usual, there are a lot of questionmarks because of the surface which will require skillful strategic alternative betting strategies. Also, the big...

well, just handicapped both races and find both very unappealing from a betting standpoint. i do not feel there is any way to bet either of these races where there is an angle against the way the...

Agree with Mulva that it is remarkable that there are so many maidens and NW1X horses in the SAD. Also, Kid Cruz is something. What a claim. I have a ton of interesting claiming stories.

Will...

All over the second to fifth place horses. Six got more or less perfect trip with no trouble and everyone else had trouble/bumping.

If people are interested in horse racing at all, I would post...

Vicar's in Trouble (the 6 horse) looks exceptionally strong in this spot tomorrow. I would expect him to romp.

In terms of who to play him with, there are a lot of horses that could be there with...

It depends on a lot of variables. Go to www.flyertalk.com and go to the bulletin board for the ff program of the airline this happened on. Then search "compensation"....you will find tons of...

anybody heard anything more on this one?

purely theoretical here, but, i am curious -- what if the situation were different....what if a backer came to Gehkenbein and said I want my money back I am not backing you.

Is the deal...

Well the government is one mafia over there. There are more than one mafia (that is true almost...

Basically, the vast majority of the casinos in Moscow were run by...

Yes, I do speak Russian. I lived in Moscow for 12 years. Also, I agree with your assessment about Russia in general. However, there were some islands of sanity amid all the insanity. The poker...
