No amount of $ can make Chicago area horseracing attractive to most players outside of Illinois. Playing that s-h-i-t is like dumping a suitcase full of cash into a bonfire. Haven't you been in Vegas racebooks at a time when a lot of tracks are running? See very many people playing that Chicago racing? No, there is not a peep from anyone when those races are being run. They might as well give the money to schools, because they have some dogs-h-i-t quality horseracing going on there. Only people that don't get that are the people in that state. That's a local attraction, and it's gunna stay local.
