And what access to you actually think they get? They don't get some special private line that updates odds for them more quickly then you see on the tote board. You realize that, right? Their data gets updated at the same rate as yours or mine at the ADW....simply because there IS NO DATA to update until the money actually moves into the pools, and that relies on the rate at which all the simulcasting centers transmit their data into the main pool. There IS NO WAY to get "more up-to-date" data because it all depends on when and how often the money moves from around the world into the combined pool, which is then displayed on everyone's screen.
Or do you think they get some super-secret Trifecta data that lets them see all the combos and payouts? No...they don't.
What they get is like what the wall street guys get who are allowed to park their servers closer to the exchange...they get faster access...but they are getting the same data you or I get through our ADWs...there is no "secret data" that they are getting.
You could scrape the same data they get off the ADW.
Someone correct me if I'm wrong, as I'm sure you will.

let me give you an example: a horse at NYRA is showing 1/5 on the board or on your screen at home. that payoffs for that horse can be anything between $2.40-$2.70. one of these computer outfits can manipulate the pool so that their horse will pay $2.70 every time. since they have the apparatus to see the last possible odds and send in their bets real fast they can either add or cancel their bets to insure they get paid $2.70 for thousands of dollars.
give me that edge and i will know what to do with it with the rebate.
