not sure.
it's no biggie tho, when i'm out i get a card and load the account. i'd hate to send a check and the credit union not pay! haven't had an issue with greendot.
now, if TS would take paypal, life would be a bit better.

opened an account with Bovada....i am pretty sure they are legit and no SS card required....the horse bets seem a little hard to navigate, but i am sure i can get used to it.

I would really like to know how many in the TEXAS govt are on the take? Just look around,Louisiana, OK, NM all can bet whatever they want...Here in TX the biggest state with the most people get the shaft...it applies to the casino wagering also....better than 70% of the cars at Delta are from TX...

Smells fishy to me, and a lot more people.

Yep, and I am sure there has been some Texans pockets silver lined somewhere in the deal.

some of the busiest casinos are those that neighbor arkansas. but, you know, we don't want that stuff 'round here.

i figure that the tracks and casinos in texas think this will generate more people on site.
i figure it'll generate less handle, and more people finding ways to keep betting on line.


and i can't think of a better group of people to go to jail with, then with fellow derby trail'ers.

If anything good comes out of this , it will be me getting out to the track more often. I live about 20-25 miles from Sam Houston and it is a nice facility.
What pisses me off is that when I want to place a wager on a PID or Santa Anita card during the week, it ain't gonna happen.
I will be at SH on Saturday for the Belmont card for sure.....
