Winning At the Dog Track With A System

New Book on Kindle and in Paperback! Eb's Best Greyhound Handicapping Writing

I sell systems. I developed them for myself and I still use them. Can you win millions if you buy them and use them? I doubt it. Can you improve your handicapping to the point where you can win more money than you lose? I think most people can. Should you buy them? Maybe. Maybe not. It depends on what you expect a system to do for you.

All this palaver about systems came about because someone emailed me recently and asked me if I just write to sell systems. No, I don’t. I write because I discovered that blogging is a lot easier than trying to get my track buddies to listen to my advice and opinions. When I write a blog post, I can go on and on as long as I want to and no one tells me to put a lid on it. If someone reads it and agrees or doesn’t agree, they can leave a comment or email me.

Now, getting back to systems … I guess maybe I’m supposed to be embarrassed to sell them or apologetic or something. I’m not. I sell them for very reasonable prices and they can help you handicap better. If you spend the time and energy to learn one of my systems …If you use it on paper until you really know how it works from the inside out … If you tweak it for your track and only use it on races where it works, instead of on races that you know you should pass … I think that you’ll do a lot better than with a hit and miss approach.

However, if you want an “automatic” system … One of the ones they advertise that earns you $500/day with no handicapping and no risk … Or a system that picks winners for you in every race … You’re not going to find it on my site. There’s no such thing. Anyone who says they have that kind of system is lying to you. And think about it.  If someone had that kind of system, would they sell it to someone else? Not likely.

So, why do I sell mine – outside of the fact that – like most people who are getting on, I can use a little extra? Well, for the same reason that people sell their recipes and sewing patterns and how-to plans for woodworking and all like that. I’m selling knowledge that I’ve gained through my own effort. I’m happy because I make some money and the customer is happy because he wins some bets. It’s a win-win situation. And whether I sell anything or not, I get to write about what I know, so if you don’t want to buy anything at www.ebnetr.com, just download a free system or read the articles. They’re free and I think they’re worthwhile. True, they don’t get into as much depth as the systems do, but I try to make sure that there’s a little nugget of practical wisdom in each one.

One Response to Winning At the Dog Track With A System

    Eb,When I go to my local track here at Wheeling Downs I pay no taxes on wins less than 600.If I bet online and still don’t win more than 600 in any one race will I have to pay taxes? If I don’t have to then why would the online sites here in the US want my Social Security Number? Please post your thoughts on this subject. Keep those blogs coming. They’re great! Best Regards,Bruce
