I can honestly say that this has happened to me and a friend of mine, as well. My friend was really stung by this when he hit a pick 4 while betting on VIP. The pick 4 paid $4500 or something around there. He too did not read the rules and was furious.
There are a thousand ways to exit a race disappointed and astonished of the outcome and about 3 ways in which a happy ending will occur. Best advice is, like many said here, join a site like Youbet or Brisbet or others that do not cap. Sorry to hear about the disappointment though.....know the feeling.

Well,I think both sides have a very good argument here(as far as where to bet goes.)The tracks charge too much % take-out on bets made with them.O.K.,it AIN'T NYRA's fault.Let's get that out of the way.They want you to know that.It's the politicians fault that the take-out is out of hand,and people logically flow to find a better deal.People say to give the industry their cut.That's a good point,but they don't care about you enough to cut their % to anywhere near reasonable levels.So, I think they need to meet you half way,and they refuse to do it(or their state Gov'ts.)I can see why the guy made this much of a mistake.I mean it's so absurd to cap at $300/1 that the typical person can't believe they would do something like that.They will lose anybody who didn't get paid what they could at the track.They've lost a customer,right?I don't understand being that way,but scum is scum.Just move on. You should read the rules,but I also think it's not a reasonable expectation,and they love doing stuff you wouldn't even think somebody would do(like cap at $300/1.) Let me tell you where to bet.Bet where you relax the best.Which site do you seem to win at more?It sounds silly,but,yes,some people are gunna do better looking at a dark screen site,and some will do better looking at a light screen site.I do best using TVG's old-style version graphics.There are better places to play(% wise or whatever,)but if you don't relax as well there,then it doesn't matter.Bet where you are most comfortable.
