That was my question.
If I did have the technology could I get the access (permission)?
In my travels at DRF I met a couple of MIT math/software wizzes looking to sell some of the software capabilities they used for their own betting that they felt DRF could use for marketing information.
Upper management at DRF was interested in the marketing. I was more interested in their betting
which they claimed was wildly profitable across the country. A big part of what they did was pool related. In fact, it's not bragging to say it was obvious I knew WAY MORE about handicapping than they did. They got access to pool data somehow, but I have no idea if they had superior access. I don't think they were lying about the profits.
