Online versus OTB

[pktruckdriver]

Does the ADW, online right?, places such as PTC, Xpress, Twin and TVG as well as others, who right now our limited to what they can offer due to the, Horsemen recieving less money for purses, correct?

Now this affects the ability to wager online, preventing us from wagering at tracks such as Calder and Churchill, right?

Now as this fight goes on does it also prevent the OTB's in all states from wagering on these tracks as well, unless the track is in the OTB's state, or for Calder's sake the NYRA has worked out a deal with Calder and will have OTB wagering in NY for Calder.

Otherwords what I'm asking is OTB's , like the ADW both cut out of airing and wagering on tracks with which there are disputes going on between the horsemen and ADW, and or OTB's, and are they considered the same in this situation??

So can I bet churchill at the Fla. OTB, but not online anywhere, and same for Calder if I was at KY OTB?? I am so confused it hurts :bang: .

All you can do is have 1-2 funded ADW accounts and bet with the ADW that will accept wager on the track you want to bet on.

Tonight BetPad will not take Hollywood Park because the horsemen have not signed a contract. Appears YouBet will at this time.

Wonder if all of the horsemen and a track get a vote or is it left up to a few to decide the fate of many?

As I understand it, right now Calder is available on track and at otb's in Fla and NY only. Who knows regarding Churchill as that meet does not start until tomorrow and everything is subject to change.

I have accounts with three ADW's --I play one at atime and if they don't cover a track then my offshore sportsbook gets those.....

Now that Churchill is still not available on any ADW, right, but the same goes for Calder too, the Horsemen have not reached an agreement, with anyone, right?



Why is the OTB's not allowed to wager on churchill/clader either, this I don't get, are they not serperate entitity's , OTB's and ADW's, and thus treated differently, I guess not, that's my confusion here. Yet NYRA got Calder wotrked out in advance, which is good if I'm from NY, I'm not, now does NYRA have a deal with Churchill, curious?

This really ruins Derby day, not being able to partake in the whole race card on Derby Day, Pick3's ,4's and pick 6 as weel as other races on the card that day, sure hope they work something out, but whose side do you side with???

I tend to lean towards the horsemen's side, but may need to know more intimate details before I make a real decision, but my little info I do have makes me lean toward the Horsemen, am I wrong on this, it seems the ADW's , not all mine you, want to keep all the money and share none with the horsemen as purses, etc..., seems greedy to me, but there must be more to this, can it be so simple as pure greediness on ADW/OTB , it might be..

BetPad website states that several more tracks in the next few days may also start to withhold the signal from ADW's.
