As if you know my mind.As usual you cannot back up your assertions.Someone talking 6's and even 9's....and buckles to a price easily obtained is not a compelling offer.

@curious offered you better odds than you were already willing to "pile it on at" - I would have thought you would have jumped at the better offer!

I haven't buckled. You have after saying pile it on @$4.

If you knew anything about profitable punting you'd realise that I do not back or lay horses at my price assessment but at a price that allows for both margin of error and profit. As I said you are full of bs.

 

Listen who's talking....Starts a thread ...saying 'I'm outta here' and goes...nowhere!

So you must be full of...shit...right.🆗

What does walking the talk...mean?>

walk the talk

Aristotle’s followers are said to have discussed philosophy while walking about with him—hence their name: “peripatetics.” I suppose they could have been said to “walk the talk.”

For the rest of us, the saying is “if you’re going to talk the talk, you’ve got to walk the walk”—a modern version of old sayings like “actions speak louder than words” and “practice what you preach.” Another early form of the expression was “walk it like you talk it.”

Sometimes when people try to be deliberately antagonistic they decide that things people say must be interpreted literally....for instance Craig Williams-'Jockey Craig Williams thought some of the seagulls at Flemington were bigger than his pint-sized Melbourne Cup mount Lastotchka.'

Now to me Craig is using hyperbole and he does not literally think seagulls are bigger than his mount.

There are others,not sure how to describe them...maybe nitpickers,precious,desperate individuals who could attempt to make a case that as he is not saying what he really means...he is f.o.s and shouldn't use terminology that they can't take...seriously.!

So your $4.00 is hyperbole?

No...here's the first post...'NZ TAB...$1.70!!!!...Oh do behave..MV specialist against real talent Everest form in In Secret...@$4.00...pile it like ..brylcreem.😄

Hyperbole is clearly evident....maybe a sledghammer emoji is required...the language,the exclamations,the reference to Brylcreem,the emoji...they confirm it to a reasonable person imo.

So cutting out all the Bullpucky (or hyperbole or whatever you want to call it) you don't consider $4.00 or $4.50 value for In Secret and it seems you haven't piled anything on Betfair!

So the way it looks at the moment is that @curious's assertion that you are full of shit is paying $1.05.

As if I have to prove anything about my betting to you or anyone else.

Do you think a seagull is bigger than a racehorse or is Craig Williams f.o.s...too?

Talk about hypocrites.

You don't although you are quick to expect it from anyone else.

Talk about hypocrites.

You seem to be full of shit not just because of your hyperbole but because you talk big and walk (crawl?) small.

As usual you have NO evidence to back your assertions!

Although there is ample evidence in this Topic that you have ruined feel free to post some evidence.

Ample?Gawn ,get on with it then.

The only person who ruined this thread is you....your default setting is ad hom attacks and puerile expletives...Curious the self anointed odds guru also...guilty.

Yep I'm guilty of fighting fire with a nuke.

But everyone is getting somewhat tired of your standard response to any post being a smart arse attack.

Take for example my comment on Without A Fight's parade ring walk and picking it to win and your first response below. 

At least I backed up with evidence.  You get offered $4.50 by @curious but we are still waiting for you take some of it.  Mind you I imagine your "pile" isn't worth the hassle.

Some 'nuke'....your comment on Without A fight was AFTER the race=no contest.🙄

As an aside,- betting with anonymous persons in the cyber world is very risky.Been stiffed numerous times.

The comment was primarily about the way the horse walks in the parade ring and anyone who has been around horses would have had second thoughts about it.  Perhaps you experience with horses is limited.  Subsequently I did provide proof that I backed it.

So another reason now and not "I can get better odds elsewhere"?

Most people on the forums know who @curious is and I can assure you he hasn't "stiffed" anyone.

Anyway back to In Secret.  Is the only reason you are picking her to pile on is because of her run in The Everest?

Or does your analysis involve other factors?

Well ,her record shows she is a very good mare...Won a Coolmore and a Newmarket,has beaten Everest contenders IWIW& Buenos Noches ,has banked over 4.5mil and won 6 from 13.

So her run in the Everest where she came from the back,hooked wider out to motor home for 4th was impressive imo.

She's a Flemington double group 1 winner that ticks the boxes afaic.
