2/7/12 Oh my goodness ... I found it.

I just found a cassette tape with the wagering tools. I entered it into the Sharp 5500III, and they WORK ! ... so I can "list" them, print it, and get at the programming.

They include :

a. tool for entering track takeout, breakage, -->> exact odds
b. probable pays in show pool
c. various betting payoff calculators
d. Kelly Criterion calculator
e. a simple Quarter horse feet/sec calculator
f. a calculator for "place dutching" two horses in the place pool,
g. a calculator for probable pay outs in the place pool
h. a calculator for overlays in the exacta pools
i. a quick APV/Class calculator
j. a (very) old quick calculator for % E and % L (with input of your own adjustment possible).
k. some simple "bank" and money management tools, including dutching calculators for 2 and 3 horses
l. a calcuator for overlays, (relative to win pool odds) in the place and show pools, (for (THAT) one horse)
m. the "Ziemba" formulas, (from their book)
n. a quick E/L calculator, for % E difference from a known par, model, or horse

Anyway, I'll work on putting them into an Excel Spread Sheet, and Google Spread Sheet, and posting it. Some may find one or more useful.
