i know the answer, they probably sold their souls to the devils before they had the sports gambling. its just another gaf that race tracks have made like with simulcasting where the bet taker makes a bigger piece than the host that is distributing the product
That would require expertise in bookmaking and a large enough handle to spread risk.

Also in the case of fan duel, they have built in advantage of a television station that does sports wagering informercials for them.

by those numbers The Meadowlands will make about $160 million for the year. that's a giant number.. i don't know what the breakdown is, but that is a lot of money that Fan Duel gets that should have stayed at the track.

in New Hampshire, they were charging .24 on baseball lines. when i was betting baseball years ago at the Barbary Coast Casino in Las Vegas, they were taking $500 at a time charging .05. Fan Duel will take as much money as you bring to the window with their .24 spread! i don't blame them.

I remember the nickle lines on baseball in vegas. Now the best I can get are a dime line with Hill in Illinois, which isnt bad.

I don’t. Certain percentage to the horsemen. Certain percentage to fanduel.
Certain percentage to New Jersey. Certain percentage to gural.

Maybe someone with that knowledge will post.
