Default Youbet
Tried to log-in to to my youbet account today only to get a message saying that Youbet is now Twinspires. I knew they had merged sometime ago but what a waste to get rid of a perfectly good wagering platform in Youbet.

If you click on Twinspires Express then it gives you a very raw version of the old Youbet interface. It's not the same but it's sufficient.

The only improvement via the merger is Twinspires TV, which is awesome.

Jeremy Clemons, VP/Mktg Twin Spires, visited ATR today and updated listeners on the merger. He and other TS guests will be appearing over the next 8 weeks to keep players updated on the ongoing rollout of features on the new merged site.

I got several e-mails as well as a letter in the mail from YB/Twinspires explaining that this was going to happen on August 16.

It was hardly a surprise.

Youbet was as close to perfect as you can get. Hopefully they can make it the same as YOUBET was.

There is no more Youbet, you have to transfer your account to Twinspire's. They have the Twinspire's Express option that is similar to the Youbet platform.
