What it is is that I have around 12-15 different systems/angles I use and have backtested. When I originally saw the backtested results and the average yearly units won I was thrilled then after actually playing the games I saw that a lot of the plays overlapped. I originally just kept track if it as one play and two units but then it was making my record keeping for each individual system a little uneven so I just decided to list every play separately and count them separately. If the play had lost it would have been counted as two losses as well. Its a little weird and inorthodox but it has been working for me so Im not gonna change

Thanks a lot I appreciate your sincerity. Although I'm not aywhere near some desperate, broke, and bitter gambler over at Santa Anita cursing jockies cuz my $2 place bet lost I appreciate your concern. Gambling has destroyed many lives but I'm past all that. In my 20's maybe Id have let it ruin my life but the worst case scenario here is I'm gonna blow a few thousand over the next season. I hardly will be quitting my job or selling off the furniture to finance this dream, its just a dream I'm chasing on the side of my real life. The real life will only stop if this took off, and that would only be a temporary stop with backup plan already installed. Thanks again but it sounds like you've been around some really really desperate gamblers. I have never even gotten close to living in that world

(5-1) for +4.90 Units on the day
(86-69) for +12.83 Units on the season

Good Luck.

Don't listen to Alan_Watts-he has no penis........

I don't listen to most

Don't ever let anyone tell you you can't make it. Those who try have failed or are failing in their own miserable lives. I wish you all the best and great job today

Thanks a lot and I totally agree. I really think I'm gonna make it within the next year
