Another day at the OTB and shockingly another winning day. I started with trying to pick based on speed ratings and claiming prices. Didn't work well and the odds were horrible when I found a good bet (what I thought a good bet was). I finally found some tracks that had fabulous odds. The first race had 7 horse all over 20/1 but the favorite at 1/9. I took all the horses to show and a bunch of exactas. My thought was to bet a tri box with all horses that would cost $210 hoping the fav. didn't win. Well, the fav came in 4th and the winner was around 42/1. somehow my show bet paid $128 and the exacta paid $262. I really wish I'd bet the $210 it paid $1800+. Next race I found had the same favorite and the all other horse long shots. I played ALL w/ FAV w/ all that cost $30 and won that for $90. I guess I got really lucky.
time to start studing the Form I guess.
some of the numbers may be off a little except the $210 bet would have paid $1800+
