Scavs,
I read somewhere, during the big announcement that Churchill was teaming with HRTV, that YB was not going to have CD and the rest of the Churchill owned tracks were also leaving YB when their contracts expired. This is going to be the last summer of CRC and AP.

I have been trying to find the aritcle and haven't been able to, so take it for what it is, a guy with a shitty short term memory trying to quote something he saw a month ago....

Get on this, ASAP. It is DIRECTLY related to TVG because Youbet purchases from TVG. Looks like it will be RIGHT to twinspires.com for Scav

I've looked for a while now and can't find it. I think it is safe to say they do not have a contract at this time, doesn't mean they can't sign one by April 28.

There will soon be a time when CD and Magna tracks will not be available to anyone outside of their network. The industry as usual becomes more fragmented than less as usual.

Default The eeryness.....

Not to continue to whip Spanish Chesnut in last year's derby.......

BUT we have called YB Member services and got ZERO answers, the girl was most likely new and had NO IDEA what Churchill was.

Also sent an email on Sunday and have yet to hear back from them regarding it.

Never thought I would say this, but even though Pinny was email assistance only, at least they got back to you in like 30 minutes, Youbet can't even get back in 48 hours.

It might be time to unleash Bigrun on Youbet again.

Two e-mails, 72 hours, no response yet. I do all my wagering with them, but this is terrible customer service.

Anyone else hear anything?

This is a good thing, it will all work its way out when TVG bleeds its last dollar. They have ****ed over their last person. Youbet will sign with Tracknet also, at least they better.

If this new twinspires.com ordeal allows you to connect it to your Twin Spires Club card, I am moving tact there, regardless on how bootleg it is.

Except if someone other than Empire wins NY and they decide to run their own network. And the thought of Empire winning is very scary.
