Morning News – 2022-09-30

Good morning...

Once again, I have started looking at the possibility of place betting those selections as well as win betting them.

This won't get us any more winners but it will reduce the cost of the losing selections; thus making the overall service more profitable.

I have started a spreadsheet which shows the effect.

I still have more work to do but it will all be finished today and ready to publish tomorrow.

An example of how it works are yesterday's Investment Betting selections...

As published:

Salisbury - 14:34 - Bresson - Win Bet - 2nd - P/L = -1 point
Salisbury - 15:44 - Bolt Action - Win Bet - 1st @ 2.31 BSP - P/L = 1.3328
Salisbury - 16:54 - Educator - Win Bet - 2nd - P/L = -1 point

Overall P/L = -0.6672 points

As proposed:

Salisbury - 14:34 - Bresson - Win Bet - 2nd - P/L = -1 point
Salisbury - 14:34 - Bresson - Place Bet - 2nd @ 1.13 BSP - P/L = 0.1274
Salisbury - 15:44 - Bolt Action - Win Bet - 1st @ 2.31 BSP - P/L = 1.3328
Salisbury - 15:44 - Bolt Action - Place Bet - 1st @ 1.43 BSP - P/L = 0.4214
Salisbury - 16:54 - Educator - Win Bet - 2nd - P/L = -1 point

Overall P/L = -0.1184 points

So, still a losing day but, less of a losing day than we would have had. I'm betting that if the 16:54 hadn't been a 4 horse race (and thus, no place bet) we would have broken even or even made a small profit.

Something to make you smile...

Wish Granted by Genie...

A middle aged man was walking along the beach one day, when he stumbles and discovers a small brass lamp. Rubbing it, a genie appears and offers to grant him just one wish.

After careful thought, the man says, "All of my life, I have wanted to visit Hawaii. But I am deathly afraid of flying and airplanes. I wish for a bridge from the west coast to the islands so that I can safely drive there."

The genie responds with incredulity and dismay. "You really don't understand what it is that you're asking for!! The number of miles to span and the amount of cement, steel and concrete required, along with the sheer brilliance in engineering that is needed! It's too much! You need to think of something else."

After another long pause, the man responds, "Okay, well then, I would really just like to understand women. How they think. Why they do the things that they do. Their mysterious ways! Please give me the ability to understand women!"

The genie answers, "Okay, do you want two lanes or four lanes on that bridge?"
