On a related note, for those who are complaining about late odds changes and believe they're caused by CRW teams, assuming you agree to the following (if you don't agree then there's no point in discussing):
1. No one is consistently past posting. That is, no teams are getting bets in after the start of the race consistently. Perhaps it happens occasionally but due to tech problems
2. No team has access to special data that isn't readily available to everyone,
though it might cost $ (i.e. no one is able to buy the tri/super matrices)
Assuming those 2 points, what solution do those angered by late odds changes and loss of value propose? You're essentially arguing against others being better at handicapping. Full stop. They're better at finding value and squeezing it out and you're mad about it. The sport should get rid of them because they're better.
Does that seem fair?
Where do we cutoff who should be allowed to bet and who shouldn't? Only people who are worse than you should be allowed to bet? No computer analysis? Only computer analysis up to the sophistication of your computer analysis? This is maddening....
