None of you are going to convince me that it is imperative to make wagers at the last possible second on EVERY race one bets.
Look, you guys know your wagering patterns. I know how the video technology works.
I am telling you, the only way there would be no( or slight) delay is if the video was from a closed feed from an over the air system then loaded onto a fiber optic subscriber line, sort of like a super fast T-1 line( they do exist) to each wagering site. The cost to do this would be astronomical.
Satellite technology is the best that can be offered to keep the cost affordable.
The only other way I can see this dilemma being corrected is to close wagering when the first horse is loaded.
Are tracks, ADW's and OTB's going to give up those 1.5 to 2 mins of wagering? Heck no....I guess you'll all have to deal with what we have now.
Or just bet 5 seconds earlier. Your choice.
