To me...the only way by which the "average" horseplayer can keep from getting destroyed in this game is by either keeping his bets at the "insignificant" level...or by playing the game infrequently. The average horseplayer lacks the desire(ability?) to gain the proficiency needed in order to keep the costs of regular participation in this game to an acceptable level. Without exception...every regular horseplayer that I know has his own horror story to tell...and I've got a few horror stories of my own.
