Your logic assumes that these people who dont know how to bet are going to be constructing elaborate tickets when most of the tourists will be betting 2 bucks across the board. It doesnt take any longer to call out ten cent supers as it does 1 dollar supers. Plus arent all you guys betting at the high dollar windows anyway?
I was only at Keeneland one weekend but I actually found it the slowest track to place a wager at of any track I have been at outside of Derby Day. Oaks Day, Travers Day, Belmont Day, Preakness Day I've never had problems. Maybe they've added more machines in the past few years but they had a huge shortage of them when I was there that made for long lines at the tellers.
