The entire infrastructure at PARX is from 1992. They just closed the Concordville Turf Club and the entire place was from 1992. Nothing had been changed Bar, bathroom, tables were 24 years old. They did put flat screens in 3 years ago, most likely because they were cheaper to run than the old tubes and they put a new beer system in after they spent 3 weeks serving beer out of a keg in a trash can. Shame, a lot of us liked it. The web interface is an antique.

My big problem is a state law coupled to the Slots law that restricts residents living within a certain radius to ADW's owned by the track operators. I'm withing 40 miles of PARX and 15 miles of Harrah's Chester. So, by state law, I have to use either one of them for an ADW. Clearly unconstitutional, but never challenged. Harrah's gives a stripped doen version of TVG on PABets and phonebet (Parx) is just 1992. I need a way to get around this.

I wonder if I can get a PO box somewhere. I'm not looking to duck taxes and would give my SS#, but I should not be penalized because of where I live. I should have a choice. I cannot get Xpressbet or TwinSpires or NYRABets.

I have no choice. It's PARX or PABets TVG. I couldn't get bets on the HK races the other night.

Not that I would for one minute think of doing this while in Vegas or at Breeders cup but if you must

One thing I'd really like to see is interactive meeting rooms for players. If I'm going mostly at home, I want to hang out with some guys or gals.
