I think some of you people don't have very good equipment. I have never experienced a moving confirm button. The screen warns you that once you hit confirm wait until it says wager accepted before placing any other wagers. If you hit it again before that it will place the bet again so you have to be patient. I understand that reading can be hard for some, but really.

Not every computer will automatically update your board so you have to refresh on occasion to ensure that you have real time MTP and odds. I have never experienced a problem regarding an entry. On very rare occasions I do have a horse checked to be on a ticket which does not appear on the ticket when I hit the wager button. Usually I unclick it and reclick it and it solves the problem. It is rare when the site does not show will pays, though, last weekend they did not show will pays for the pk4 and pk6, but the track feed was having the same problem which likely means it was unrelated to the website.

The only time I experience real problems with the website is on major race days, it can be incredibly slow and difficult to place wagers. However, I do not believe this is unique to NYRA and other sites have been much worse as others have posted on those days.

The one annoying thing I do experience is that often when I am playing out of town races the odds do not update from the ML odds and the will pays and probables are blank which is something they should correct, but then again, I can get the information by clicking on the video feed from that track. I also think they should allow you to cancel wagers before a race starts, particularly when there are scratches. Conditional betting would be a nice addition as well.

Overall, the website works very well and better than any other platform I have used.
