Yes, every dime.Post times at gp and santa anita are mere suggestions, they usually go off at least 5 minutes after the board is at " 0 " Theyflash pool totals on screen as it goes along,and you can go to get something to eat,hit the john and then wait for the race to start . This is only gp and sa, i played FG the other day and was rushed to get plays in as they run the races to schedule and i was used to the other gp,sa races.. I have been at tracks where your description is true, not gp, sa now. I can understand it more when the race starts a p4,p5,p6 sequence.
