Canterbury purses up

They added more tables to the casino, new games, higher pokers limits, and a deal with the native tribe for simulcasting. On-track wagers were also up 30% for opening night over last year.

I used to wager online a few years ago...

Loved that the simulcast feed played music between the races

Higher limits means they're ripping off poker players?

I was actually going to put a 3-2-1 countdown note in the original to time how long it would take for you to show up and hit your one-note bitchy piano. Seriously, I'm not making this up. I skipped it because I figured it would make you realize how obvious, predictable and boring you are and probably not do it.
