Not a bad day for the wizard.........we cashed 2 out 3 for a slight + roi..........i have no idea how to compute the roi thing..............for the week 5 selections 3 winners and 2 place.......so with that said i'm ready for the o for today...........

Belmont
$ 8 double part wheel
# 3-4-5 with
# 1 only
if just the 1a runs ** no bet **

Good luck everyone:p :cool: :)

Great going Wizzard. ROI Formula is very simple:
(a+b) 2 = a 2 + 2ab + b 2

(a+b)(c+d) = ac + ad + bc + bd

a 2 - b 2 = (a+b)(a-b) (Difference of squares)

a 3 b 3 = (a b)(a 2 ab + b 2) (Sum and Difference of Cubes)

x 2 + (a+b)x + AB = (x + a)(x + b)

if ax 2 + bx + c = 0 then x = ( -b (b 2 - 4ac) ) / 2a (Quadratic
Formula)

Actually try this

ROI=Amount Won/Amount Bet

Ex:
Bet $100
Won $150

150/100=1.50

Therefore ROI = 1.50

You had me going there for a minute Glen..then I scrolled down..was thinking you Texans gotta do everything big. :p

Actually, maybe Carl should read your post...seems his ROI went way down..on a $2 bet!!!!

Nice job Wiz...looks like most everyone else had seconditis yesterday. Did EVD get rained out?

[Glen]

Yeah Hurrikane, jocks at EVD refused to ride after the 5th race I think...

[George]

Kris Prather alert for Wizard!! She is scheduled on a nice horse in CD Race 9.

Had seconditis yesterday but also an $11 win and my Zoe Cadman special show. Small profits are better, no IRS problems that way :)

$12 show 6CD # 6 (Pat Day)
$6 exacta box 9CD 4/5 (GUESS who's on # 5)

-$144 +156.80 1.09

[The Wizard]

George,

thanks for the heads up on Kris..............i've been busy today and didn't get a chance to look at the cd entries..............Thanks again................glen thanks for the roi formula.........you really had me on the first one o thought i was going to have a mental breakdown:p .........thank goodness you simplified it for me:D

[MtKen]

Big $11.90 weiner for me yesterday on 1 of my 2.......using Glen's formula that gives me a 15.82 ROI, Yeah!! Actually almost 1/2 buck on the dollar, but good to get one.

Today I steal 1 from Carl &, despite how hot he has been lately the 2 or 3 we mutually pik'd have run out...so beware.

Today I have a "Carl" or 4 banger.

Mth 1----#7 $6 win
Evd 8----#5 "
Ctx 10---#9 "
Pim 8----#3 "

[hurrikane]

Well...thanks to Mr McViegh's buddies..there is bomb threat and have to leave before I got to do my picks...If I survive I'll be back with the losers later.

Way to go Wizard!!!

one bet

5 PIM

2 3 6/2 3 6/1 2 3 5 6 9

Banking on the slop killing that week K1 10 horse.

[The Wizard]

well with the scratch of 4 horse in race 1........that left 3-5 with the solid 1 in the second... i played 2 20.00 doubles and got back $242.00 for a $ 40.00 bet ..........not bad for a days work.....Good Luck with your picks...........hope the horse gods are with you:D :p

[George]

Nice job Wizard ! ! You are on a definite roll.

Now parlay a little of that on Kris and it will be a great day.

[The Wizard]

George,

you must be reading my mind i put $ 20.00 win and place on her..........:p

[Glen]

Wizzard is the man. You still doing all that with the all mighty Tomcat.exe? Ever try the Stardust?

Hol R1

69/8/76

[George]

Thought they might throw a "welcome back" party for Kris Prather today. Bet $10 win/plc on all seven of her rides. After 2 races have $206 back and a profit for the day with 5 rides left.

Go Kris !!!

[hurrikane]

anyone been having trouble with winticket online the last couple of days...

[George]

I have trouble with their front-end screens every day but nothing other than the normal slow load.

You beat the k1 at PIM but the darn 5 broke up your trifecta. Close, good try!

[George]

My exacta ran 2nd and 3rd but unfortunately there was no consolation exacta. Pay Day delivered for me but not enough to save my roi.

month to date
-168 +171.20 1.02

Think Kris P, Wizard and myself had a wonderful day with her return.

Gonna take a couple days off from racing and wish everybody good luck on the Belmont.

[MtKen]

George & Wizard, congrats on the Kris P comeback. George, how do you find 'layoff' jocks in your db & how many days do you think they can take off before your ROI goes south?

I'm thinking the jock layoff formula is similar to the Glen ROI calculator but I'm willing to learn.

Wiz, I might actually bet tomorrow, hope you're posting early again:) Been enjoying 70 deg. bug-free weather up here the last couple of days, makes it hard to hang @ the internet tote.

I've been working on more blind plays but I've been very co-dependent on actual odds.
