First of all, regarding novice handicappers using the "All" button in 10 cent superfectas: On the very few ocassions where I invest in a race these days, this is actually a very good play. Why? Because of cheaters. Trainers who drug thier horses, jockey's who use buzzers... you get the picture. Why only 2 weeks ago I hit a $1200 super at Monmouth keying 2 horses to be on the board in a 7 horse field. My keys were the favorite who ran 3rd and a longshot who figured no worse than 4th. They ran 3-4 with 2 hopless longshots filling the exacta. I invested $124 into the race with my strong plays being exactas, win and trifectas. The super tickets were "savers".

So I signed for the ticket. Big deal. The law sucks. It was introduced by Bobby Kennedy in retaliation for the mafia doing money laundering back in the early 1960s.

When I hit for $133,000 in 1992 ("Beyer On Speed", chapter 7) the IRS audited me. But I had my @#$%& together with losing tickets and programs. After I got done with them (not the other way around) they paid me the $3500 they owed me.

The moral of this story: HONESTY IS THE BEST POLICY!
