Something is extremely wrong if the dime supers do not generate more money for the SUPER pools. However, that is NOT increased money in the OVERALL pools. The extra money in the super pools is coming from the small bankroll players, who have a set amount to lose. Whether they lose it in the dime super or the win/place/show or the exacta pool doesn't matter. In other words dime supers do not affect total handle. They should affect super handle unless the track is doing something wrong.
It seems like another case of the tracks not getting it, if they aren't showing an individual pool increase.

All that said, I am generally against dime supers, and always against them in feature races and stakes races. I do think they have their place in cheaper tracks, and polytrack races of over 8 entries.

Ok, you have me intrigued, what does the surface have to do with the type of exotic wager to play?
