My first thought is that there could be a difference in how the public plays, since the difference between 10% and 25% takeout will affect the odds of favorites, possibly changing the attractiveness, and obviously, the impact on longshot prices would be seen as well. I'm interested in what others think.

I think that the bettor with a poor win pctg. would prefer the higher rebate, while a better capper would prefer a lower takeout.
