That would be felt less by players on the multi race side but still raise revenue and perhaps also raise churn on the reduced takeout wagers? Is that a viable approach to test the waters on reduced takeout?
New York and Illinois take 25% on P3-P4... I don't hear any screaming... I also don't hear a peep of praise for California having been kept at 20% all this time on those wagers...
The bill is designed to provide flexibility. The basics of the existing takeout system in CA isn't immediately affected. Is there potential for everyone involved to do the wrong thing? Yes.. Does it have to be assumed? No..

Steve i'm primarily exotics/multi race bettor and i love playing CA tracks b/c the takeout is lower, what you suggest here would put CA tracks in line with everyone else. Is there anyway you can get somebody from CHRB on ATR to discuss this? I believe it would help to here their side.
