I lost $11 betting the races at Gulfstream today. Up, down, up, and ultimately down. Gotta love livecast- lol. The last time I bet the ponies all day was like 10 years ago at Belmont. Great way to kill an afternoon.

DK is running free contests based on game simulations. Some of them have pretty big top prizes ($100-$500), but I've only managed a few small cashes. I started with 0, and now I have $8.39!

If you have the TVG channel (or for free on TVG online) you can watch all the major tracks still running - Gulfstream, Tampa and Oaklawn.

Just through the I’d mention that if you want to bet outside that racetrack.

Been betting the ponies almost every weekend since sports stoped, and I didn’t ever really bet on sports before... can’t watch horse racing without getting in on the action!

Not even close. I know someone who bets $10k a game and gives over $100k to charity every year. If you can afford it no one has the right to tell you how to spend it.

He also donated over 200k masks to first responders during this pandemic

Does your friend create posts urging people to give to charity right before he goes gambling?

That was the whole point. Obviously you can gamble and give to charity.

No point in discussing this further since he edited the original post on "Where are you giving" and nobody copied it in their reply.

Guy you have made your point so many times you have exhausted it. We understand how you feel about this. You have reached the point of beating a dead horse.

If you're in CT and want to use the MyWinners App (OTB app) you can bet any of the racetracks that are open, and it links to streaming video to let you watch the races.
 
the best bet I ever made was on the Patriots

It was around the 1775 season and they beat the redcoats straight up on the field( actually the boston commons )
it was a great bet , the home underdogs come through a lot
The redcoats had a long road trip to the game coming all the way from England ,,,,
and they had to do it by boat
this was before Brady ,,,, Washington and Revere were the stars

next post i will tell you about the worst beat I ever made ,

This. Never online gambled before. Flipped on NBCSN, saw my name on a horse, scrambled to deposit $50 and 3 weeks later, hours of entertainment and still $150 in the bank. TVG is the best.
