I did this stuff as a teller when I was 18 years old. You don't need to have $10,000 to bet $10,000 if you intend to cancel. And -- you can cancel huge bets all day everyday and they never say anything to you about it.

I would be too worried that the tote system would go down at the last second.

If Mountaineer Park wants to put a stop to it ... that's obviously how they do it.

Next time these phony win bets come in on horses like Andrun and Oddity -- and they have horses 1/9 going into the gate that won't even be the favorite... just cut-off the betting on the race two minutes early and leave the wiseass who is doing it stuck at 1/9 for money he probably doesn't even have on him.
