Default Twinspires new wagering platform

Twinspires broke out a new online wagering interface today. I like it for betting pick 3's and pick 4's, but for exacta's and tri's it's a step backwards.

Not sure how it could take a step backwards, it's bad enough as it is. On the weekends when I can actually bet online and not over the phone I just put in a $2 bet to cover the PP's and use my preferred site.

Agreed...it would be nice to be able to use the new one for multi-race bets and use the old interface for Ex, Tri and Superfecta bets. Maybe it's still a work in progress.

Their mobile site is pretty bad. It forces you to take too many unnecessary steps to bet on multiple races at multiple tracks.

Just click on the 1st, 2nd, and 3rd "tabs" to the left of all positions and you'll be back at the old format for both pick 3s & 4s and trifectas/exactas where you can do it by individual race or finish position.

I've never successfully placed a wager from their mobile site.

Could very well be an issue with the person holding the phone though....

Thanks, I probably wouldn't have figured that out.
