The Totopoly Kid I have come to punting very late in life - in retirement, in fact. But I was not new to racing when I did, for as a boy my favourite board-game was Totopoly and, in Australia at the time, I was taken a few times to magical Randwick, the Sydney racetrack.

Bets for Apr 01 2008

OUTCOME: -9 BASIC PLAN [within OVERALL -14]

I have now caught up on February's outcomes

Summary Day 359 (wef 01/04/07 Month12Wk4.7+3Day359) which brings an end to Apr to Mar accounting. (I account Jan-Dec, now)

BASIC PLAN surplus +112 by 31/03/08 (since 01/01/06) This has to be regarded as breaking even on the face of the Basic Plan record. Overall, however, the position is vastly different. (Discontinued stat from 1st April, 2008.)

C/f to Apr 02 (Month4Wk1.2Day??Phase08BDay32) - BASIC PLAN Phase 08B (begun 01/Mar/08) updated deficit -83* pts … which is part of a deficit of -288 pts implicit within 2008's OVERALL deficit so far of -474 pts ... to which I've reinstated (added back) -5554 Overall for all of 2005 (Jan-Dec), -11022 for all of 2006 & -15 likewise for all of 2007 = Current Target break-even figure Overall = c.-17,060 pts.

Since 01.03.08 Ave. deficit of -3/day* Phase 08B/Basic Plan over 32 days

No Win days so far on Basic Plan in Apr (including any no-bet days because discounting them would wrongly imply that they were 'Loss' days & because, note, 'Even' days count as 'Win' ones, here: "If I haven't lost, I must have won.") 17 in Mar, 14 in Feb14 in Jan, 20 in Dec, 22 in Nov, 20 in Oct, 22 in Sep, 17 in Aug, 16 in Jul, 17 in Jun, 15 in May, 14 in April, E&OE

GLOSSARY ON THE PHILOSOPHY (updated 03.01.08)
AMD: an "alphabetical monitoring device" for non-level stakes betting.
... [To illustrate: the sequence on the, then, Supplementary bets peaked deficit-wise on 26th April, 2006 @ "ZW."  I had brought it 'down' to "ZC" by 10th September, 2006. At last, the account was squared off - anyway, as regards Gain v. Loss days - just before the very end of 2007. This year, instead of starting the sequence again at "A," I have cut in with the increasingly important Capped bets Supplementary category, for which the current (updated) AMD reads strictly "(GAA)." This means it has improved down the complete alphabet twice and is at (G)/35 pts this 3rd time round. Very satisfactory.]
