Handicapping/Gambling Question for Jerry (930 Views)

Have held off on this one for about two weeks, at least since Preakness Day. The big days where I am downloading multi-sets, playing as many as 4-6 different tracks are becoming difficult to plan.

I have a non-horseracing 9-5 day job which doesn't allow me to watch races, read the form, or study the numbers for what will be one fast paced hectic day. Usually from the hours of 3:30-6:30 its is tough to be aware of what races are coming at you next, pre-post time odds, multi-race wagering opportunities or in general just what in the hell is going on sometimes.

If your standard wagering unit is $50 or $500 it is not uncommon to have as many as four of these going over a ten-fifteen minute span, not even counting pick-threes. Losses can create severe stress or downright panic.

Should the night before be spent handicapping plays that look good, which this alone can take as much as four hours and looking at as many as 50 races. And then the next day spent observing conditions, wagering and trying to enjoy the afternoon while making a little money. A 10-15 hour commitment is a considerable amount of spare time for me but I am beginning to believe this is what it may take.

Help.......
