The guy got paid. Yes, I feel bad about his hassles, and perhaps if he had gone to the right people at the track on that day it would have been straightened out even faster. However, there is absolutely no way you can expect the clerk to have paid him. That's just ridiculous.
Believe me, I'm a bettor, and I sympathize with his plight to an extent, but since he got paid ultimately it is hard to not feel that the right thing was done.

Absolutely not. No way does the clerk figure that out. But the clerk knows who to send him to. They have to have some customer service. You dont let him go home without clearing it up.
Maybe in NY they dont do things like that. I know I was given an entire mutuel print out about 3 years ago when I questioned a pay out because I had looked at the pool sizes and the odds. I got to meet the head of mutuels at a smaller track. Maybe big operations dont care.
