#7 - Losing Your Cool if You Fail to Place a Wager
This is an easy one, so I hope you are not the one that I am talking about here.
Imagine that there is a "Big Pick 6" and you fail to place your wager on time. If you lose your "cool", you probably should call it a day and not wager any more.
Because at that time, you are not in a state of mind to wager responsibly, and will in the course of your anger, will "double down" on the next race.
In an effort to recover what you think you lost by not participating in the Pick 6, you will violate your horse handicapping strategy and money management rules. By doing this, you will be playing in the hands of the professional horse race handicapper. They will be more than happy to take your "foolish money".
A successful horse race handicapper, will seize that moment as an opportunity to participate in the other exotics that may also be available after that.
On any given day, there are countless number of horse racing events to wager on, including countless exotics to place wagers on.
Horse racing will continue and the game will go on with or without you.
There are an infinite number of conditions that you do not have control of as a horse race handicapper. Your positive wagering attitude is something you do have control of.
