i understand that but why do some handicappers complain about it then?

[Scav]

They are stupid to complain about it because all it does is benefit the superfecta player. Here is why

1) More stupid money in the pool, not alot of people played Supers because they are hard to hit, but when 1500 people throw in $3 for a .10 ticket, taht is another $4500 in the pool that generally wasn't there

2) Tax implications: All they have to do is play the ticket 10 times and you have it for $1.

Race 1 at Scav Downs comes up 1/2/3/4 and the super pays $605 per $1

Lets say person A plays a $1 super ticket 1/2/3/4

lets say person B plays 10 .10 super tickets 1/2/3/4

Person A is paying taxes and Person B is laughing at the person paying taxes because he avoids the $602 law because each of those .10 tickets only paid $60.50

....well, when someone has less than 2 bucks and have set up camp at the window it kinda gets me pissed off........i mean if you have less than 2 dollars give it up man.

It could be betting a million dollars a race or 20 cents a race, either way, you should be ready and just spit your wager out instead of screwing around at the teller.

Though, I am guilty of it sometimes, especially if I am unsure....98% of the time I just fire, but there is that 2% where I am normal and actually think out a wager

is thier any less of a chance of not hitting the pool by not being able to play as many horses or no? does it make them easier to take more horses and hitting more of the pool compared to the 2 bettor taking less horses because yourgoing to be more selective in your choices based on your capping so not to spend excess money to hit it but also decreasing your chances of hitting it?

We all like to blame someone else for us getting shutout at the wibndow or selfservice machine,but the real reason for the shut-out is ourselves. The bettor that goes to the window and gives the money to the clerk and then looks at the board is the real problem. Any capper should know his bet when he gets to the teller no matter the amount bet. The big bettors have a window reserved for them at every track or simo outlet.
