BETTING WITH BOB : MAN VS. MICROCHIP

I was half right, but it didn’t do me a bit of good.

Tu Eres Mi Heroe, one-half of my exacta box, was my hero, leading wire to wire in the third race. Cherokee Returns didn’t, beating only one horse.

So I lost $40, leaving me $30 in the black heading into the new week.

Perhaps the computer is less effective in high humidity (do the chips get soggy?). It lost $60 Sunday when its exacta horses, Itsallgreektome and Warcraft, finished third and ninth, respectively.
