Even when Andy dropped a hint a few weeks ago, they still didn't notice until it was widely reported.
Fascinating.  |
That's because there’s
NOTHING to “wonder” or be “fascinated” about. Anyone who just monitors the odds is doing
nothing more than monitoring the Win pool. In case you forgot, there are 2 other mutual pools and a number of Exotic Vertical betting pools as well. They all have an impact in one way or another. Those who truly monitor the tote board activities are closely following the betting patterns generated by a number of these pools combined at various time intervals during an entire betting cycle. There’s no mystery when you actually know what to look for when following the flow of money.
BTW I happened to catch Andy one day discussing a seemingly overlaid odds on a horse that was 8/1 with one of the other announcers. This announcer couldn’t understand why those odds were so high because he felt they should be much lower based on his interpretation of the PP’s. Andy simply dismissed the lack of tote support and suggested that this announcer just ignore the inflated odds and go for it. In case anyone is wondering the horse finished up the track.
