Slow down after a banner day


I'm only human, so I have to resist natural urges.
After ' big' winning days, experience has taught me  to reduce my involvement at the track.  I have to.  Otherwise,  I find myself giving the ducats back too quickly. 
There is nothing more frustrating, for me,  than realizing I wasted a fortune today merely because I won, yesterday.

Let's say I've had a $1000 profit day.   The most I will wager, totally the next day is $200.  Additionally, my selection process is more stringent and my betting strategy changes.  Lots more straight bets; and few exotics.  I can't tell you how often I used to have to pry my foot out of a place it didn't belong.  Slow and safe. 

It's easier to do if the slow day is a Sunday, traditionally the worst race card day of the week.
