I think I'll be singling Wanderin Boy, I have to imagine everyone will be singling Bernardini.

Scav 10-06-2006 02:05 PM

Can anyone tell me why they are doing this?

The Bid 10-06-2006 02:06 PM

Too many scratches maybe? I have no idea, but it's been announced on the 'live tote' at NYRAs website...

IT HAS to pay more then that because the pool size will be probably around 2 million

Scav 10-06-2006 02:09 PM

This is huge, i was goign to play a $200 pick three 1/5/1 but now I can just play a $100 ticket and go 5x5x4x1x1x1

berreman150 10-06-2006 02:09 PM

said due to trouble with video feed?

Scav 10-06-2006 02:10 PM

That is the biggest crock of crap i have ever heard, they just want to have a huge carryover for tomorrow. VIDEO FEED, I love it

SniperSB23 10-06-2006 02:11 PM

Can you imagine the aggravation now if you had a Pick 6 ready to go and it winds up hitting today?

Gander 10-06-2006 02:12 PM

Video feed, LOL! Its a planned thing, you can be sure of it. Anyone think this is a way to try and lure people to come out tomorrow? :cool:

Belmont Answer
 
Transmission problems delay card
By MIKE FARRELL
ELMONT, N.Y. - The start of the third race at Belmont Park on Friday was delayed at least a half hour as the New York Racing Association tried to restore the audio and video signal to over 1,000 off-track and simulcast outlets. Wagering was also interrupted at some offtrack sites.
Post time on the tote board for the third race was revised to 2:30 p.m. The race was originally scheduled for 2:02 p.m.

NYRA spokesperson Fran LaBelle Jr. blamed the failure on fiber-optic lines from Verizon.

The delay also pushed back the Pick 6, starting with the fourth race with a carryover of $456,860.

Imagine the faces if Bernardini does not win tommorrow LOL

Now that is going to be a good Pick 6, u might have hundreds pick the first 5 races and single Bernardini and lose

Nostradamus 10-06-2006 02:18 PM

The people that run NYRA are crooks and con artists. This video problem is such a bunch of lies. Either there is a way they can skim money off the pick 6 or they did this to get attention to their saturday card, which nobody would bet anyway due to the field sizes. NYRA blows.

I love how they screw the guys who bet during the week so that the guy who bets on the weekend can have a chance at their pick 6.

NYRA=LIARS

Please explain to me the last time they had this problem with the pick 6. Try never.

blackthroatedwind 10-06-2006 02:27 PM

While I have a problem with the decision, a big problem as I put a lot of effort and money into the Pick-6, the reason they cancelled the wager was apparantly because in some states it is illegal to bet without a signal.

What can I say....the first winner of the sequence was one of three on my main ticket. I'm certainly not happy. Now I can spend the rest of my afternoon rooting against my opinions....starting with my single in the 5th Legs Benedict.

Are you really that gullible? How often does this signal problem happen? Try never and when they have a big card that nobody would bet because of 4 and 5 horse fields. These people are f-ing liars. Enough with the crooks at NYRA screwing the public.

berreman150 10-06-2006 02:29 PM

i had the same thought about it carrying over to tomorrow , I figured it would be because a 50-1 shot would win one of the races . Sometimes I think it is fixed seems to be alot of carryovers when you have a big weekend of races coming up. Oh well back to the drawing board.

Scav 10-06-2006 02:32 PM

I am cool with it....Hell, I was going to play one ticket all day, a $200 pick three HH/EC/Bern and take my 5/2 on it. Now, I play a pick six 10x5x2x1x1x1 and I get tons better value on that pick three I was going to wager on

THANK YOU NYRA, I LOVE YOU
