### - well it's free 7-horse accumulator-day again folks!
after all, there's nuthin' quite like shooting the moon? :)
an' aaaaall ya's gotta do is to simply pick 7 winners outta 7 races!
which don't sound a lot if ya says it quick hahaha...
but has far more chance of winning than any lottery by literally millions
to one!
but which really 'is' still shooting the moon when it comes to 'actually' standing any chance of winning?? the horses picked today totaling odds of
just 'over' a million to 1! (1.3 mil) which is still a whole heap of odds!
but which pales to almost insignificance compared to any lottery???
(literally 100's of millions to one!)
so what is a million to one then just about equal anyway to he wondered,
is that really so much or what?
well (grinz...) some proff somewhere once i remember, in the process of describing the odds of our national lottery to the eager masses hanging on
such information when it all first started up here (peeps were literally cheering in the streets at the prospect haha!) mentioned that the then 14-million to one odds of winning the lottery (they've actually upped it since?? lol) were beyond description/comparison, but that if someone were
to ask him what odds of say only 1 million to one would be like, then he
would perhaps compare/describe it to say that of the likelihood of elvis, coming back from the dead, IN a flying saucer, AND the whole kit &
caboodle landing right on the head of the loch-ness monster! (cracking
up...) and THAT'S only ONE million to one?? so how can i possibly describe/compare odds of 14-million to one!?
i mean ffs! :D :D :D
what's the odds huh??? (really laffing...)
so shooting at the proverbial moon it certainly IS!
perforce 'professional' gamblers (peeps who actually make their living
gambling etc...) kinda look down of accumulators as being any kinda sensible/rational way of gambling hah (of course...) single bets, one nag
at a time for them or nada really... i couldn't do it... too tough a life
maan
otoh see, there's nuthin' quite like shooting the moon on occasion though
eh?
look up a bit, aim for the sky?
and it's a 1.3 million to one-shot today! lol (whoo-hoo!) here we go! :)
it's better than the lottery that's for sure! (more fun to it all too
heh...)
(slider gives a silent salute to elvis + indicates north hahaha...)
scotland's that way mate!
and have a gud-day! :)
