BETTING WITH BOB : MAN VS. MICROCHIP
I hit the (chalk)board, making a $37 overall profit when my $30 exacta from Iroquois Park to Saddle Up in the fourth race paid $7.80. Not much, but I want to make hay until the computer’s sun shines again--probably Thursday.
Bob’s Sunday Bankroll: $1,946
Sunday’s Profit: $37
Current Bankroll: $1,983
The computer, which previously had bet only allowance races or better, lost $40 when it went slumming in the first two races--both claimers--Sunday. It would have lost more, but Ki-Nobre scratched from the second.
Computer’s Sunday Bankroll: $1,619.50
Sunday’s Loss: $40
Current Bankroll: $1,579.50
