Scum of the Earth

Kev, I feel for you but you have to let it go now. No good can come out of being upset about it now. Know what I mean.

I'm not upset anymore....upset was what I was at the OTB

Basically as a rule, people suck. I agree kev, if its not mine, I wont take it. I dont care if i find it somewhere. I will turn it in to somebody because i didn't earn it in anyway. People don't need to take advantage of other people especially when its as blatant as this. This guy can't be happy with his life. Stealing money from a somebody he doesn't even know. I almost feel sorry for him how empty his life must be.

Sorry to hear about that. It's really sad the amount of scumbags that are out there. They all seem to end up at the racetrack or OTB as well. I could care less if it's a $1.50 and been sitting there for 3 days. If it's not mine, I want no part of it.

The good news is that there's a neat little trick that you can do to f#ck with these degenerate morons. It's fun and I make a point of doing it anytime I'm at a racetrack.

As we all know, there are people that love to just wait and watch to see if someone leaves anything in a betting machine. Sometimes there's 2 or even 3 guys watching so they can make their move. So what I like to do is screw with them beyond belief.

You need to have some change on your voucher. It can be $.10, $.20, $.30, whatever. Go up to a machine and proceed to punch in a monstrous superfecta ticket. In a 10 horse field there's 5040 combinations. Punch in an all/all/all/all, but use the actual numbers so they show up on the screen as opposed to the asterisks which denote use of the all button. $5040 shows up in the upper right corner of the machine for the bet amount.

You'll see these ba$tards fly to the machine thinking they struck gold or something because all they see is the $5040. When they realize that's the bet amount and the actual voucher amount is only like $.30 or something they get angry, punch the machine, and look like your typical degenerate loser. Their dream of shoes without holes in them has just been dashed. It takes 10 seconds to do and is well worth it. Just take a few steps away from the machine and enjoy their pathetic nature. It's especially hysterical when you get a couple of them do their slow little walk toward the machine, and then literally buck elbows at each other trying to be the first one there.

Is it a little sick and twisted? Sure, but it's a nice little way to throw a big ol' GFY right back at them. Good luck.

get this - the tickets that are run thru the totes the day before at beulah park are taken out the next day. soooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo

my dude plays a similar prank on this scumbag lowlife who smooches off EVERYONE. he lays out this voucher by the tote that was run thru the tote from the day before that was worth something like $145, dated the day before.

dumbas walks RIGHT UP seeing the voucher and smiles. this is at 11am, so he can not cash it and i am sitting at a table near by seeing this all unfold.

bout an hour later (it was in the winter last year and aqueduct is always the first track at beulah this time of year to open up) he strolls to a machine, it keeps spitting it out. dumbas goes to a teller and they run it thru - next thing i know he is throwing his hat on the ground

classic stuff

I love it "dashing their dreams of having shoes without holes"

The track I go to does not have these vultures in great numbers. Most people are pretty straight up. but that is a really cool idea. Im gonna try it. I like experiments.

No offense GPK but it is your responsibility to make sure you have all your tickets and voucher before you leave the window or self betting machine. It isnt the responsibility of the person behind you to keep track of your money. In fact, I can't even remember who the person was in front of me when I make a bet. I am too busy reviewing my selections. Now if the man knew it was your $50 voucher, then yes he should have done the right thing and give it back to you. But not everyone does the right thing.

If it doesnt belong to you, dont take it. Simple as that. No, its not his responsiblity to keep track of someone elses money, but you just dont take it. It's that easy

I was with my uncle on Derby Day. He was losing his battle with cancer and I gave him a $200 voucher. He went to make his first bet of the day. Came back with the $5 bet and left the rest on the machine. I went looking and I could see there was absolutely no way I was going to get a read on all these hoosiers. No one turned it in and they were too busy to help me.

Then there was a time I go to the auto tote and there is an extra voucher laying in the slot. I just old on to it. You yell out "anyone lose a voucher" and 6 of 'em will holer. I see this guy looking all over his table and in the machine. I ask, "what cha looking for?" He loudly says he lost a $100 voucher. Then quietly says $18. So I hand it over. Strange

But the strangest thing was when I stuck my winning ticket in the autotote and it paid $66. I tried going back to the machine and mak another bet with that voucher and it wouldn't work. I go to the manager and ask him hat is up with the system. This woman sitting next to the machine apparently saw what it paid and went to the manager and claimed that someone stole her voucher for $66 off her table. They were able to lock up my voucher until they did a history on it and found that it was from a winning ticket and not her table. Lying ****** Karma took care of her sorry **** I am sure

They have the ability to do a history on tickets.

if you can give them accurate information
