How would you feel if YOU got shut out of your software's pick of a 40/1 shot, who wins and you lose out on a truck load of dough?
His comment was funny, I laughed hysterically for a good 10 seconds. I enjoyed it.
But as a client and after the giggles wore off, I realized that as a client, this kills my wagering. Not funny.
No wonder this industry just keeps going backwards and backwards. We have horseplayers that laugh off poor decisions, shrug their shoulders and say adapt. The thought never crosses their heads to speak up and be heard.
I, took the initiative to write a long, detailed and professional letter to the CEO of NYRA. Got a call from a low end employee that said that the shit hit the fan on Dec 22nd (from my letter) and that I made Chris Kay think for a while (remains to be seen, if that is true). At least I took some action to help the clientele of this industry that doesn't know HOW to speak up as they don't know HOW to type up an e-mail.
These "leaders" expect you to suck it up and to continue betting like a degenerate. They look down upon the people that push the handle into their coffers day in and day out and you turn around and laugh that someone's signal is 45 second is late?
This is exactly the attitude that has this game heading to non existence at 400 MPH.
At least I know, I did what I could to stop it.
