Winning percentage question!

[jug]

Just got done having a discussion with one of my track buddies and we disagreed.


If you concentrate on only one track (your best one) and made a win only bet on your top play.....what percentage would you expect to pick?

[burton]

40%

[Jeremy]

would it have to be every race, or just the races if felt more confident?

Glad you asked Jeremy.....I forgot to mention PLAYING ONLY ONE RACE for the night!

[Mags]

based on my recent results I'd say 0% but I digress..will be looking to raise it this saturday night 

[Jeremy]

Well I better find out, although I will only look and make a prediction on days I plan to go out and bet.


One race what I feel the most confident about I would think about 50% of the time.

Knowing you jug   10% a good number

I take that as a compliment....10% is one hell of a number!

I am curious to see the Giss's number......I am sure he probably tracked his picks!

[cashman]

Hey if the horse pays 80 bucks     10% aint bad.

It has always been my understanding that the best cappers have about a 33% strike rate.

Then we all know about the infamous capper named " nickels " who wins 98% of the time.

Playing one race a night--   Who the hell does that!

If I wanted to pick for winning % I think I would hit 60%

Of course,  I don't like betting chaulk so if it was for ROI I'd be happy to hit 20% because I'd be looking to get 8-1 or better on the play.
