Right, I forgot that. Anyway, it does allow moving forward.

CAW's have ruined the game I can only place maybe 6 to 8 bets a day on a weekend card. Odds are dropping after the gate opens. No software can predict odds dropping like that. What quality software can do is help narrow down selections. With that being said, I made a post weeks back about getting out of the US market and placing more bets overseas. I approximately have 25 to 35% of my bankroll involved in overseas racing. I will be moving more. I don't see the US market getting any better with the CAWS involved at the level, they are. A reduction in field size hasn't helped the game. I am making money overseas and losing money in the US market. That should explain where i will be heading at some point. I can understand your frustration, but this has zero to do with DET software. DET software will only help not hurt.

I have seen something similar (maybe identical) and I solved it by opening the race following the one you are having the problem with, then closing it and then re-opening the problem race.

Wow! That's a lot of frustration. This 'game' that we all play can certainly do that. Some of what you say is true but not completely. Also, some is not true but again not completely.
Observing the tote board is impossible, even to the well connected. You will never know the true odds of the horse(s) you wager on until after the start so there really is no reason to check the tote.
I say, go ahead and bet your overlay. If you can psychologically accept the outcome that 75% of the time you will lose that wager then good on you. I know that I can't and Dave has said that he can't either.
Cashing tickets more often has a less negative effect on the bankroll and thus a more positive effect on your psyche and a boost to what Dick Schmidt called the 'velocity of money'. Keeping those fluctuations to a minimum is something that I've learned that I need.
I'm not sure what you refer to when you say 'perception'. I'm seeing something incrementally better than anything I've seen before and I've seen a lot.
