Haha EMD, I wouldn't put that notion past those guys...

I really don't think that they get it....I truly believe that, that is the main reason (high takes) why the PA tracks have lost their way with the public..

I mean after awhile even the least astute player, will finally get it... And, it appears that is what seems to have happened... The players, especially the not so good ones, are/were going broke playing at those venues...

Too bad I always liked PA harness racing, the flats not so much...But in recent times, I no longer play the exotics just grind away via WP wagering...

If I ran another race jurisdiction, and I really cared about the sport, I would take a very close look at what is happening in Pennsylvania these days...
