Maybe someone could explain how that type of wagering will benefit and improve the overall racing picture.
Does anyone really believe that it will make the game easier and more profitable for them?
I’m also curious as to why some players (who seem to favor this wagering approach) are apparently so frightened of continuing to compete with other players in the betting arena.
Do they really believe that they’re losing because they’re playing against smarter players?
If they’re really interested in succeeding, why don’t they first look to themselves and attempt to genuinely overcome their personal gaming shortcomings.

I'm pretty sure it will help make the game more
palatable for some people when the whole thing boils down to a risk reward calculation and anyone who walks in will be able to (for once) stare directly at the reward piece of it. One wonders why fellow horseplayers would want others to have to deal with the late odds changes that have plagued the game for 25 years and driven a huge amount of players away from the game. I'm sure if it doesn't pan out they'll scrap it, end of story. It may not pan out but I'm happy to see someone at least wants to try.
