The 4 pillars of The Battler Way are patience, understanding, consistency and smart choices. When you can master those four key pillars mixed with good tips and good value you can win long term. 
 

Key Elements of Smart Choices

• Understanding the gambling landscape
  Why the game has changed, and why patience is more valuable than ever.

• Understanding market forces
  Who moves prices, why false favourites exist, and how to spot them.

• Understanding rapid changes
  Bookie promotions, taxes, influencer bets — what’s distorting markets right now.

• Understanding racing concepts
  So you’re not just following a tip, but seeing the bigger picture.

• Understanding bet types
  Identifying the toxic ones designed to drain you, versus the beneficial ones that give you an edge.

• Understanding bankroll management
  Protecting your capital so you’re still standing when the big winner arrives.

• Understanding value
  The absolute cornerstone — finding horses that are over their true odds.

• Understanding POT vs strike rate
  A high strike rate looks good, but profit on turnover is the true measure of success.
