Yeah, the only difference here is that rather than being discouraged from betting by ancient laws, my state went out of their ways a half-dozen years ago to make sure that they passed a new law at the request of the track owner and with support of the idiot horsemen to make such wagering felonious activity. Amazingly, the other commercial track in the state made a push a few years back to overturn the law and try to actually catch the wave of growth as people run from horse wagering using traditional methods and the effort was effectively stymied by the same track that pushed the original anti-ADW law - which coincidentally operates the OTB outlets in the state.
