To the best of my recollection Supertote crashed every first Saturday in May.

CD management chooses to have a tight grip on their signal carriers too, so they lose money, it's karma for restricting the broadcast.

The great and historical LOUSY customer service racing has provided for it's customers strikes again. No wonder this sport has become a joke and is losing fans! You can't place an internet wager on a race that is owned by the track that is running the race. You can't make this stuff up !
Just when you think it can't get any worse, my wager was finally able to get through but the deposit I made a t6PM was supposedly accepted and by wager could not go through because my account was empty.

Not down. It's just 5-15 minutes late most of the day. That's what happens when they try to simultaneously take on 100+ tracks of thoroughbreds, standardbreds, quarterhorses, and greyhounds from all over the world, and everybody and his sibling tuned in. It's called "IWantItAll" and it's nothing new with CDI. I don't blame them. They have a responsibility to their shareholders to make as much money as they can.

FWIW, the hub has been on about a 2 second delay much of the day.

Yes, it was in fact down for a good 10-15 minutes just now.

We were getting an actual message from TS saying "TOTE IS DOWN" when trying to make bets.

So yes, it was DOWN.

But thanks.

Makes sense to bet early on a day with changeable weather and uncertain track conditions.

TVG

I'm usually one of the TVG haters but. I have to give them credit after reading all the complaints on Twitter about other ADW's-- I use 4NJbets and was able to bet the KD about 4-5 mins to post, so kudo's to them.👍👍👍

Every year it's somebody who can't handle the biggest days. This year is TwinSpires. Two years ago was TVG. XpressBet has also had their turn in the barrel as well.

Glad that TVG stayed up, but I feel like being able to handle customer traffic on the largest day of the year should be a bare minimum expectation of an ADW, not something that's deserving of kudos.
