Good show, Mystery Picker, good show. You nearly had the win at Daytona, a great accomplishment at a track as random as Daytona. While this was the last edition of “Restrictor Place Roulette” (“Tapered Spacer Tarot Cards”?) the REAL season picks up this weekend at Atlanta.
My strategy this year is pretty much the same as in the past—go with who has the “hot hand” and riding Big ‘Mo(mentum), while taking into account who dominates at said tracks. Here’s hoping the old standards do well by me this weekend, as the rest of my life is up in the air. Well, not the WHOLE rest of it, just work—there’s a big meeting EVERYONE needs to be at this upcoming Monday, and I’m hoping that they don’t shut down our store. Unemployment isn’t the worst thing in the world, but having too much time to waste on gambling sure is.
