Dear TVG
No one cares about the Analysts, why are we sitting here listening to them BS in their houses, with NO graphics for the races coming up or the god damn odds?
GP 1st is already run and still no prices at the bottom scrolling.
2 TVG goofs yapping.
We were all screwed when HRTV channel went to TVG2.

Your ADW doesn't show odds?
TVG.com has odds and everything else you need.
I would guess showing the races and providing the commentary is the top priority, and doing things from a skeleton crew in the studio is not helping the shows go on.
You should be happy you are getting the video.
You do understand things are not the same in the world outside these days, right?

The HRTV analysts were much better IMO. TVG really forces gambling which is the name of the game but the ticket structure from just about everyone on there is terrible. Chalk chalk all tris and all all single single pick 4s...

TVG
Why don't they show the bottom line of all tickets at the end of the year as in ROI?

They would tout their choices and ticket selections and as soon as one lost they'd disappear from the TV screen.
Personally, I think it was to encourage betting. My exotic is a Daily Double once in a while.
I did enjoy their on site shots of interviews with jockeys, trainers and owners.
But, I got rid of cable and I only bet in person. That was years ago. Is that Todd guy still touting losers?

I assume everybody is betting via ADW right now, which all have live streaming. Get a chromecast (should be ~$40) and cast it off your laptop via chrome. That $40 pays for itself real quick in today's streaming environment

Of course they "force" gambling, they are an ADW.

Watching TVG without the hosts' "interference" is a DELIGHTFUL experience. But I prefer to have the sound on...so I can hear the nice background music that they play at night when the hosts' "work" is done.

Kind of like playing keno in your hotel room in Vegas, waiting for the wife to get ready and dressed for the day's gambling activities....Nice tunes on while watching the numbers pop...

You guys get too worked over this, heard it too many times.
Gabby picked a nice winner in the 10th today with phenomenal trip handicapping.
They give opinions. Nobody is saying they are the greatest of all time. The guy on FS1 - Jonathan - hasn't picked a winner in seems like forever...and also picks a ton of chalk. He isn't any better.
Eddie O will pick an occasional winner but tons of losers. ALL of them pick lots of losers.
Its a tough game, few people actually win long term.
They give their picks usually followed by analysis. Use the analysis to help with YOUR selection.
There is nothing wrong with the occasional punch of the ALL button. Anyone that hasn't hit the all button is missing out on boxcar winners.
Find something worthwhile from the analysis and file it away for future use.
