Youbet/TrackNet
Mr. Daruty from TrackNet tap danced around the issue of Youbet customers being able to bet on the Derby. It seemed to me from his "non answer", that as of today Youbet customers will not be able to bet on the Derby. His stated goal of having all ADW companies being able to provide the same signals seems honorable. What is troubling to me is the way TrackNet seems to be strong-arming the competiton. It seems Youbet is being penalized for doing what is best for their customers by obtaining as much content as possible. I've been a member of Youbet for almost five years and have no gripes other than the $46.95 quarterly fee charged. But you get what you pay for and I'm more than pleased with the content they provide as well as the customer service. In the county where I live in central New York there is no OTB. In the past I would travel 40 miles roundtrip to place bets. This year for the Derby if Youbet won't be able to carry Churchill, I'll bet the card at Belmont.
