Passing on that is not being a true horseplayer. It's being truly myopic.

That logic would have me betting the late Pick 5 at Laurel with a 12% takeout and 10K pool.
Look, I just think it's a bad precedent that's all. I don't begrudge NYRA for trying to reel in as many account holders as they can. Down the road I don't want to see individual locked bets across many wagering platforms.
