Horse Racing Tips - How To Make Sure You Win More Than Lose

By Frederick Sienkiewicz


There are incidental costs involved in money betting on horse races: the vig which is the amount taken by the track to pay its overhead, state taxes, and earn profit.Not only that - good past performances cost money too and so do any information needed to base decisions on.

And if that wasn't enough - the entrance fee, parking and seating costs, etc. every time you go to the race track.It would also be wise to bring a packed lunch with you because food at the tracks are not cheap and, if added up to the before-stated expenses, comes up to quite a big amount of money for regular track goers.

Here are a few tips on how you can save some money that you can add to your bottom line:

1. Not all tracks' checkout figures and breakout are the same; check out which is the best by using those as the basis of your decision.With regards to vigs that tracks take, they vary too, with some tracks charging less than others for win bets and exotics.It might be best for you not to be attached to exotic bets unless your profits from them are huge; otherwise you'll be better off doing win bets.You will earn more money with win bets because they have the biggest takeout and the best chance of making money at almost all tracks.

Some tracks offer simulcasting and, if it's the takeout you're concerned with, have access to such a track and think states.The takeout figures vary from state to state; you can find out online which state offers better takeouts or inquire from the track management.There are secrets involved in money betting on horse racing; number one of which is that all bets and tracks are not created equally.

2. Setting limits. There's not much difference between betting money on horse racing and casino gambling where most players don't want to leave the place when they're winning; they leave only when they're losing or have lost much.What is something easier said than done is knowing when to stay on and when to quit. If players would only set a win limit and a loss limit on themselves, they would eventually come out with much after pulling together all their profits from their wins.

There is a single biggest factor to be successful in any form of gambling and that is knowing money management which is one area where most gamblers fail.Now that we're on the subject of money management, let's discuss record keeping.This task doesn't have to take much time and be too complicated; the only thing required of you is to write down what your bets were and why you made them. You have to do this if you expect to make a profit.Is there any other financial endeavour you would engage in without keeping a record of the money?

Ultimately, you may find these secrets to be so simple that you may doubt their effectiveness but, together with a good horse racing system, they will make you more money faster than a complicated system.
