Maybe its my memory but I can’t recall you ever putting your opinion on the selections thread. I do recall you pounding the table when those of us are stating lowered bet types are killing the payouts and you stating we are wrong but when you were asked for any documentation supporting your position well we are still waiting. Let’s face it you are lobbying for a job with NYRA and this justified call out of Rock is just an extension of that.

On another note I miss Pointman. He has game

just to be clear I didnt factor in other posters and great players like Ed Peters, Nick Tammarro , Dan K and Paul Weizer who chose to not play around daily like Pointman.

Ever notice how the pick 3 at NYRA pays well because they have the minimum at $1 ? Tri min should be $1. Super min 50 cents not a dime.

I agree and will be pummeled when I bring that up and I am trying to not waste my time in Internet Beefs. Let’s somebody give me Pick 4 payouts prior to the move to Fiddy Cents and now. As I have stated many times before people are playing the same priced tickets and now getting much more coverage.

I can remember when $24 tri box play was standard faire. Plenty of value most times. $1 pick 4 paid like the 50 cent pick 5 pays now. They were always good.
If NYRA let everyone bet the late pick 5 with a low takeout, they could make that late pick 4 a buck and the bettors would be in a feeding frenzy like pogies getting chased by bluefish.
