What ADWs do you use?

Trying to gauge how PA members get their money down. Lots of discussion re ADWs, but I'm not sure there's any clear idea of what ADW(s) are winning the popularity poll.

If this has been done before (recently), sorry to be repetitive.

I think BetPad should be an option. Lots of accounts were bumped to this ADW when Twin Spires took over Brisnet.

That's OK since other aptly describes them. Oh my! and it's leading in the poll. Is it too late to change my vote?

Here's my crazy lineup. I use PTC due to rebates. I use BetAmerica since they allow you to watch two tracks at once and provide some small rebates. I use Twinspires (from brisbet to betpad to twinspires in my state) to get discount on BRIS products, and I really like their Twinspires TV video setup. I am using offshore less and less but still do some for now.

By the way, the combination of Twinspires TV + BetAmerica allows me the ability to have three video streams going at once with pretty good quality....just make sure you have a fast connection!

If you think thats a good setup then check my set up out thanks to my Macbook and 30meg cable connection.

Since the video links for BetAmerica don't expire you can just reuse the same link over and over and just change the track code. Then if you open the links with VLC it automatically opens the 1000k stream of that track. Since I have a Mac I can use the program called spaces to create multiple desktops so I can assign each track I want to watch its own desktop with each video set in full screen mode. Then I can easily use the arrow keys to scroll to each video real quickly. If I hit the F6 key then it brings up the picure i posted in the the link. Its an awesome setup for those that have a Mac and like to bet on multiple tracks at once and since there are always multiple races going off at once you can watch then all at the same time in great quality. Its very similar to how Twinspires TV works although they only allow for 1 big screen with the 4 smaller and pretty unwatchable screens under it.

I know it is a minor correction, IRG is no longer in business.

I had to vote 'other', however I hardly think 'other' is the appropriate way to handle TwinSpires. They are one of the major players in the space whether the OP likes them or not.

Should have put HPI on the list. Lots of Canadians in the Pace Advantage woods.

BetAmerica video

I've seen several people mention BetAmerica for video...but are they a good site to wager at?

Great topic, as I may go looking for others based on the responses---I really like YouBet---good platform easy deposits and good rewards--no rebates, though and phone wagering tough
