Golden Gate Fields, Sunday, January 4, 2009

Nopie did not win.
There were 12 entries in the 5th race. However, the race was without a game entry or entries by which the game could be correctly played and no bet should have been made.

Golden Gate Fields, Saturday, January 3, 2009

The 1st race did not put in place a game entry that qualified to be played. Consequently no bet was made.
The 2nd race offered Great Impression @ 7/1 plus support for 2nd bet and a $16.20 payoff.
The 4th race provided Corallis Dee @ 4/1 also with support for a 2nd bet and a $10.20 payoff. At the 5 minute warning, this entry did show odds @9/2 or better.
The 5th race needed a wide spread across the field to locate Raging Wildcat @ 5/1, but not no chance for a 2nd bet. The $12.80 was okay and again met the minimum wins for the racing day.
The 9th race looked very good for Poetic Note @ 5/1 early, but was bet down to 5/2 when he broke from the gate, challenge for the lead in the stretch, went lame and was taken off in a van. That horseracing!
That also a game loss of $136.00. Not a good start for the New Year.

The question. Be there next Saturday or revist the first game not played Saturday today,
Sunday the 4th. Did locate a qualifying entry the 5th. Nopie. Race time is 2.50 pm. The win is in the game. Go for it.

Golden Gate Fields, Saturday, 12/20/08

THE GAME exceeded minimum "gamewins" for this day's racing program. However, that entry's payoff did result in a lost.
In the 1st. race, Rollin N Gold rolled in @ 14/1. A $31.20 ticket cashing event. In the 4th. race, Funky Chanteal was 9/2 at the 5 minute warning but off @ 7/2. A $9.80 is better tossing the ticket! Okay.
In the 7th. race, Any Wager won @ 7/1 and paid $17.60. The 8th. race was a Stakes race with 9 entries. However, there was cause for concern when entries 1 and 2 were scratched. This mudded the betting odds. Merus Miami returned to sounder ground and won @ 6/1 and paid $15.60.
THE GAME managed a total win of $174.00 for the day. Christmas Saturday, 12/27/08 will give THE GAME a rest and review time because this game must be finalized by in 2008.
Merry Christmas and a Happy New Years. Stay with THE GAME for more winning in 2009.

Golden GateFields, Saturday, 12/13/08

THE GAME continued to meet minimum "gamewin" for today's racing program. Again the Stake race offered less than the minimum number entries required to make a wager.
Lost by a spill in the 3rd; lost by a nose in the 4th. That's THE GAME; that's horse racing.
Yudaman Man was the key entry in the 5th. but Run on Demand was the go to win @ 8/1. It was a 180 degree payoff for $19.00. A shorter route is available when the blockage is eliminated. Of course, a win is a win but Jamaica Bound's 3 lengths win is much less troublesome. The entry was bet down from 8/1 to 4/1. Paid $10.80 times 2. Slighty better than Corvalus Dee @ 9/1 the backup run 2nd. Quarteback Crunch "won by a nose" @ 16/1and paid $34.80 times 2.
The 9th. race resulted in a better profit than last Saturday. A total day's win of $302.00.
THE GAME returns to GGF on Saturday, 12/20/08

Golden Gate Fields, Saturday, 12/06/08

THE GAME met minimum "gamewins" for this day's racing program. The Stake race offered less than the minimum number of entries required to make a wager.
In the 4th race, Spartan Fortitude was a qualified betting entry at the 5-minute warning. However, the entry ran @ 3/1. The $8.40 payoff did offset three other entries in the 3rd, 5th and 7th races that ran @ 7/2, 7/2 and 5/2. Perhaps making the bet when there are less than 5 minutes would catch bet down entries. However delayed off-track electronic wagering transfers may be the culprits. Attempting to make a later bet could also result in getting shutout or a still later odds recovery @ 9/2 or better. At the track, "Thing are not often as they are seen".
Mtn Ranch Willy won @ 10/1 in the 7th race and was the only entry to provide a win at $22.80 times three! Hopefully this win could established the win ability of THE GAME beyond paper "GAMEPLAY".
Swisspealdocious in the 9th race - a "gamewin" @ 4/1 and paid $10.00. A total day's win of $68.00.
THE GAME will return to GGF on Saturday, 12,13,08.

BACK FROM VACATION

Tote Tactics' Games has been away for a while. We had anticipate a succcessful and fun run for the remainder of the Golden Gate Fields season at Albany, California. Late scratches on 11/15 and 11/22 pushed the return to Saturday, December 6 when the play will introduce THE GAME-THE WHOLE CONCEPT FOR A DAY AT THE RACES. This game will bring all four games into play for each race. Obviously, it will require the most discipline engagement when only the favorite and entries with odds of 90/1 or more will be excluded.
Expect greater value and greater takeout with THE GAME. Game on it! Happy Thanksgiving!

Saturday, February 2, 2008. A racing day that caught the rain. The first race only had a light drizzle. However by the eleventh race it was a downpour. The 'all weather track' didn't turn muddy and all races went off smoothly.

Race 1 - Four High Value Entries. Forman 2nd @ 10/1.

Race 2 - Four HVEs. Made in California 2nd @ 22/1.

Race 3 - Four HVEs. Iced Out 2nd @ 6/1.

Race 4- Four HVEs. Funny Papers 5th @ 30/1.

Race 5 - Two HVEs. Splash Hit won @ 9/2.

Race 6 - Three HVEs. Code Magic won @ 12/1.

Race 7 - Three HVEs. Slewsky won @ 9/2.

Race 8 - Three HVEs. All out of the money.

Race 9 - Not a "Gameplay" race.

Race 10 - Four HVEs. Luxurious Flight won @ 25/1.*

Race 11 - Four HVEs. Prince Windy 3rd @ 7/1.

* A basic "Gameplay" move omitted as evidenced on the Gameboard and on the Official Program. A correct play provides a $240. Game Day win.

Pogo said it: "We have found the enemy and it is us." Our continuous search to find the "no loss game" with insurance plays etc. has been totally misdirected. So, back to the game, "Gameplay",
from the "Start" as necessary to turn this game around.
