Default Twinspires.com to launch Wednesday May 2nd 9am EST

http://news.bloodhorse.com/viewstory.asp?id=38727

TwinSpires is currently authorized to accept wagers from customers in the following states: Kentucky, Louisiana, Maryland, Montana, New Hampshire, North Dakota, Ohio, Oregon, South Dakota, Washington and Wyoming. TwinSpires customers in Florida may place wagers by phone only.

That sucks for most.

Just tried signing up for the hell of it, to see what the platform looked like and the quality of their video, but Florida is not in the choices for States in the residence section and you have to choose one. Oh well.

Already juiced my Xpressbet account for the first time in years and am working on the Oaks card, ready for the weekend.

Considering how well twin spires runs other facets of its operations I expect complaints to come pouring in, like today. At least Arlington opens to what is expected to be a nice weekend.

Nyrarewards.com opens their online wagering platform today as well, coinciding with the opening of Belmont. I'm very curious to see how well it performs. Going to place a few test bets today on it, they haven't blocked it at work yet
