If you knew the Results..
9 years 11 months ago
Remember in Back to the Future 2: Marty buys that Sports Almanac with all the results from Major Sporting Events, If you had the oppurtunity to know the full results for say Durban July Day (all 12 Races) how would you punt? Do you just take a All on Win, or maybe a Straight line P6. Do you Go Full out and put the house, cars and kids on one outsider.. myself I'm not a greedy man.. I think I'd Play a Straight line Pick 6 for R100 bucks and then a All on win at the Bookies, keep it low profile.. but make just enough to settle down.

Interesting question. For me the key is to not raise suspicion and also if you only had the results for that one race day or if you had the opportunity to scavenge some more results in the future?
I would back in the races with the most liquidity as to maximize my profits. I would stick to exotics such as P6, quartets and so on. I wouldn't take anything straight line as again, nobody is that good without some information.
You could have a legend of a day winning the P6, spending maybe R500, perhaps win 6 or 7 qt's multiple times maybe spending a few hundred a time?
The books will start cutting your limits very quickly once you start labeling them.
Back one or two losers for small money just for the ruse

Reminds me of the story of the Irishman that broke into his local bookies shop on the Sat night and lost 50 quid

With the Bookie bets, I'll go in and take a cash All on or Full Cover and leave.. no point staying there the whole day when you know the results
