Horse players like yourself are alot to blame for the decline. You want to b*tch but I guarantee you you seat at home and wager on tvg and never go to the track and support it.
At least they are introducing something or at minimal going to try something to drive in new clientele.. What is wrong with that... Do you want them to just do nothing?
Yes I understand the tracks have ****ed over the players, but if those players went to the track instead you would not have increased takeouts. Its that simple. The way the market is setup now, you got JoeBlow paying JoeBlow2 in which JoeBlow3 pays JoeBlow4 and JoeBlow5 in return paying JoeBlow6,7,8,9,10.... With this logic and decline in revenue it had to be increased.
Just amazes me how you guys want to complain but don't want to try nothing new.
I mean I go to the track 1 or 2 times a week. I try to support my track. Do I use online betting? Yes on occasion.
But I understand its hard to travel to the track everyday and its easier to stay at home. But why not go there once a week or once a month.
