    I'm rereading a book at the moment called The Chase, it's a classic ethnographic account of problem gamblers. Anyhoo, last night was reading the chapter on systems and tips and a gambler related this story-

    He was at the track and someone tipped him horse 6, but he didn't think much of the guy who tipped it so didn't pay it much heed. He went to buy a hotdog and the hotdog lady asked him who he fancied in the next race, "I dunno, horse 6" he said.

    Then a guy gives him a good tip for horse 8 and he goes off to bet it. Just as he is about to another guy he knows comes up to him and says he has a 'hot tip' - horse 6. He thinks and decides that he better back both horse 8 and horse 6 because that's 2 tips on horse 6 now. So he does.

    Then he says to the guy "hey who did you get the hot tip from on horse 6 anyway?", the other guy replies - "the hotdog lady!".
