Do you feel that if it weren’t for bad luck you wouldn’t have some lucky? We all have days like this at the dog track, but if you have too many, maybe it’s time to do something about them. There ARE things you can do to improve your luck.
First of all, attitude has a lot to do with how often Lady Luck smiles at you. If you are convinced that you will never win, you probably won’t win very often. On the other hand, if you are arrogant and overconfident, you probably won’t win very often either.
Somewhere in the middle is the right balance to put you in a winning frame of mind, which is when people seem to have the most “luck.” Whether you believe in fate or think it’s all a bunch of bullshit, it seems that some people are luckier than others.
You may notice little things that help you make better dog choices. Maybe they are just naturally better at handicap. Whatever the reason, it is true that some people do better than others on the track with the same information that everyone has.
If you know someone who seems to be making a lot of lucky bets, ask him how he chooses the dogs. It could be that what looks like luck is actually a good handicap. If that’s the case, maybe, if YOU’RE lucky, they’ll tell you how they do it.
Remember, many times, what seems like sheer luck to a stranger is actually the result of a lot of time and effort behind the scenes. Lucky people are sometimes just people who don’t give up until they discover something and learn how to profit from it.
