Testimonials
"I have never had so much success (or fun) with the punt. Thanx heaps and great
punting to all!”
"I am very appreciative of the efforts that go into producing this outstanding information."
SUMMARY
The Killer Factors let loose on the quinella
TWO OUT OF FOUR AIN’T BAD!
You’ll never find your gold on a sandy beach
You’ll
never drill for oil on a city street
I know you’re looking for a
ruby in a mountain of rocks
But there ain’t no coupe de ville hiding
at the bottom of a cracker jack box
The words above were
written in a totally different context to those you would expect to read
in Practical Punting Monthly.
In fact they are taken from the
Jim Steinman lyrics, Two Out Of Three Ain’t Bad, the hit single that
made Meatloaf (Marvin Lee Aday) a rock star back in 1977 with his album
Bat Out Of Hell.
SUMMARY
An oldie and a real goodie
QUINELLAS STILL A TOP BET
One
of the oldest methods of racehorse investment is the quinella. It’s a
lot older than you and I, and it makes a lot of sense.
Recently I
was going over my past year’s investments, and I was examining the
possibility of having backed all my selections each way. As against
having twice the investment on the win, the each way possibility fell a
long way behind.
However, while the profit would have been
reduced, the insurance factor always has to be taken into consideration.
There was one sequence of losers that had my teeth on edge, and this
could have been greatly relieved had I been betting each way.
SUMMARY
Beating the exotics' special – Quinellas
QUIN HITS
Although
they are extremely popular, quinellas are probably the least understood
of all the exotic bets. Many canny professionals make a living from
quinellas, while the average punter loses his money on them.
It's
all a matter of knowing how to bet them. They can provide the careful
and astute punter with some generous returns. Knowing how much a
quinella pairing is going to pay is most useful for the dedicated Q Fan.
SUMMARY
QUINELLA BACK-UP SLAMMER
Those punters who enjoy backing at
level stakes for the win usually have a lot of fun. Some may win a few
percent on their turnover during a year, most will lose a little. It all
depends, naturally, on how good your selections are!
Level
stakes betting, though, doesn't offer an enormous degree of excitement.
You can bet and bet, and get on top a bit, and then fall back a bit and
many times you'll be cursing your luck when your fancy gets pipped for
first spot.
SUMMARY
Plan of the Month
QUINELLAS
This month we are going
to move away from the usual selection plans and take a look at staking
methods. In particular, we will be looking at quinellas this month and
trifectas next month.
This month's quinella staking method
expects you to have six selections per race. Or to be more specific, six
selections in those races in which you will be backing the quinella.
