Product Description

Ray Gordon has figured out how to win BIG at the track! Of course, he is not going to reveal ALL of his secrets, but his new release, Between Jackpots, offers several profitable handicapping angles, so the reader can recoup the investment in this text. The real value, however, can be found in Ray’s treatment of the PSYCHOLOGY of professional horseplaying.

As a “semi-professional horseplayer,” Ray has won tens of thousands of dollars over the years at the track, and has built or rebuilt three separate winning advantages, which he then mercilessly exploited. The reader is taken back to the beginning, when Ray’s dad began training him to handicap harness races at age five, through his prodigal wins as a teen, his adoption of the Beyer-Kovitz speed-figure method from 1986-1991, during which time he won a near-fortune, and into the present, when Ray battled back from the “Beyer Armageddon” to develop PAP, short for “price and probability,” his new winning method, one all his own. Ray’s exploration of the difference between using someone else’s method to succeed, and building your own, is groundbreaking, and useful to any who aspire to a life of riches at the track.

Ray also explores the extreme social pressure faced by the aspiring horseplayer, and how to deal with the inevitable haters who either cannot believe it is possible to win at the track, or who are simply jealous of the fact that you have learned how to. He also reminds the reader that horseplaying is never easy, and that even the best will endure times which try their soul. He also shows the upside, the times where he turned $50.00 or less into $2,000.00 or more, in a single day, and how even these seemingly great wins still are not sufficient for one to quit their day job. The title is a shout to actors who say they are “between gigs,” yet retain the faith that their big break is just around the corner. Ray knows that any day, even TOMORROW, might be THE day he finally breaks the bank, and it is that hope, that belief, which lures him, and everyone else, back to the windows for another day of financial combat.

If this text sells 25,000 copies, or if Ray hits a jackpot, or gets a “media gig” that ensures profitability, he will release his entire PAP method, but for now the reader will have to be satisfied with a few tasty morsels of information. He has chosen to write and release this text to test the demand for his full method, so it is now up to the public to determine the ultimate fate of whether or not his method will proliferate, or remain Ray’s “secret advantage.” As already mentioned, the handicapping and betting tips contained in this text are worth many times the purchase price all by themselves.

For more information, visit the PAP website itself at http://www.toosmarttofail.com/pap.html, where Ray also puts out “sponsored PAP sheets,” so the readers can see for themselves just how powerful a horseplayer Ray Gordon is. The text also contains copies of IRS documentation of his most recent jackpot streak.
