Askin Haskin, we will agree to disagree on the rebate issue. I know it is the biggest problem (coupled with excessive takeout to begin with) this sport has in ever growing into anything more than a relic. I am trying really hard to conceptualize what your point is. I went back and read a few of your prior posts. Your big talking point seems to be that lower takeout is pointless, you hate Hana for some reason (I don't know if it is because they pushed for lower takeout or they encouraged more exotics, both?). You often bring up putting people on the live horses to begin with. How exactly do you do that? The entities that are able to decipher the live horses are the ones that are extracting millions of dollars from horses racing (mostly if not entirely through rebates). What exactly would be their motivation for going on TVG telling everyone that the 7 horse who is currently 9-1 should be 4-1?
Also what is your end game? A sport with 16% take with completely efficient pools (thus nobody would every win and everybody would lose 16% of every dollar). That is your answer (I can flip an coin and bet sports all day and lose 4.5% why would I want to lose 16% betting horses?) You criticize racing, you criticize my points, you criticize Hana, but what is your solution?
