i do something like figures. used to take a lot of time until i automated the whole thing. now it takes about 30 minutes/week.
this got me thinking about when i started. i learned how to program so i could automate some handicapping ideas i had. it turned out to be a simple linear regression system that looked at about five factors. in 1980 at a small midwestern track, this was like finding a gold mine. i had a guy bankroll me 50/50 at $100/day. after the first three months, we were up about a grand.
i still think about how much extra time i would have had over my lifetime if i would have lost. another soul sacrificed at the alter of Pari Mutual.
