Win More at the Dog Track With the Trick That the Smart Money Wont Tell You About


Greyhound Dog Racing Tips.

You can't make money betting on longshots. They come in so infrequently that it just doesn't pay to bet them. Longshots are at long odds for a reason. Right?

I'm sure you've heard all that many times at the dog track. Everyone knows that longshots are a sucker bet. Well, everyone SAYS that they are, but is it really true? Think about it.

Now I'm not saying that you won't lose money if you only bet longshots. You will. But you'll also lose money if you only bet favorites too. Betting on anything that you haven't handicapped is a sure way to lose. But sometimes, longshots are better bets than favorites and you can make more money on them. That's for sure.

You see, the smart money at the track knows that the odds on a dog have nothing to do with whether it's a good bet or not. The only thing that matters is whether the dog has a chance to be in at the finish of the race. If the bettors think the dog can't win and bet it at 50-1, that doesn't stop it from coming in if it's a contender.

The trick is to know when a longshot is under-bet. How do you know if it is? Well, the same way you know that any dog isn't getting the betting action it should be getting. If you're halfway decent at greyhound handicapping or have a good system to pick dogs, you know whether a dog is likely to come in. If it is, you should be paying no attention to what the crowd thinks of it.

This is the secret that can make you big money at the dog track. Look for dogs who have something going for them that makes them better contenders than they look like they are. This happens a lot in races where there are one or two dogs that the bettors love to the point where they don't pay enough attention to the other dogs in the race.

Don't let yourself be dazzled by dogs that look like they can't lose. Any dog can lose, so it's important to look at all the dogs in the race, not just the best-looking one at first glance.

If you can find longshots that don't deserve to be longshots, you can cash in at the windows with the insiders who use this trick to make a living at the dog track.
