This book shows first time enthusiasts and experienced players how to correctly analyze and play the dogs so that they can cash in and consistently win money like a pro. In addition to all the basics - how to understand the racing charts, the bets, and the payoffs - It shows the reader the five essential strategies that can be used individually or in unison for a powerful approach to making money. Readers learn how to evaluate Class, Speed, Effective Grade, Running Style, and Recent Form, and about the importance of kennel and "bumping" during a race.
Greyhounds have form like racehorses. They peak at certain periods, have good seasons and bad, or if young, may not yet have reached their peak and may perform better as they mature.
The challenge of betting on greyhounds is to collect and analyze information and then make a sound judgment on what to bet on, what type of bet to place and how much. To create an opportunity to be a winner, you need to take into account three main factors, analyze them and act on your findings accordingly.
These are:
1. The odds offer (Price)
2. The value of the odds (overpriced or under priced?)
3. The type of bet (single, multiple, combination, etc.)
The odds offer has to be at least 2:1 to make it worthwhile. If necessary, choose a selection with a slightly higher risk to prop up the price. The value of the odds must be such that the sports book's commission is to a minimum, if at all. Some selections get 'steamed' unnecessarily. When this happens, the 'favorite' price lengthens. Take advantage of those situations. Three type of bets seem to stand out as a sensible combination to use because they are simple, not too difficult to win and have good winning potential: the Straight bet, the Doubles and the Future.
