That's why they gotta do what Pandy said. Whether a track drags their feet or not........that's not the problem. The windows and all bets should shut down a couple minutes before and the odds finalized. With the technology today it doesn't matter whether people are cheating or not. As everyone can see the "look" is suspicious and not good for the game. They never figure out, when this many of your customers complain.......you got a problem.

And there's credence to what Thask is saying too, whether people are cheating or not. The business is desperate.........money (handle) trumps "appearances" or being strict with people that can move the odds like this. It takes a lot of dough to move the odds that much at these bigger tracks. If they crack down, its not really in their financial interest to do so without taking another blow the business. When no ones at the track........you ain't making gate money, beer money or any money off the facility itself. They are pretty much at the will of people dumping bets like this....and I'll say this again. Whether they are cheating or not.....at least with final odds you won't see this sort of thing happening when they are coming down the stretch. But what do i know, complaining in this game has been poo pooed for years and that's more than half the problem. The complainers are nut jobs or conspiracy theorist........ Even after people are indicted or banned......
