Default Looking for honest answers here

Does anyone play the triple in New York way less than they used to because of the paltry payouts ?
Does anyone remember the days of the $2 triple ? Of what it meant when you hit the triple in the last?
To me, if you hit the triple when it was for $2 the payoff was nearly double of what it would be now if you had it 4 times for half a buck. At least the pick 3 is a buck . At keeneland and others where it is fifty cents, they all pay terrible. The dime super is a joke. It's refreshing that on oaks and derby day they make it a buck and offer real value. Does anyone think the super in the derby would have paid so well all these years if you could bet it for a dime ?

$10 clubhouse admission and another $10 for a racing form but only a dime to bet the super and fifty cent triples at Saratoga. This only bothers me and no one else ?
