I just tried to log onto BetPad and saw that TwinSpires bought them out.

I wonder how long I will be able to bet thru T.S..As I live in Texas and all..

Not sure how I got away with it on BetPad to be honest..Never questioned it, but was just soooo thankful that I could make bets from home..

I see that they have Contests and stuff... COOL..........

Kinda funny because I moved back from Cali. when they legalized pari-mutual wagering here and now it's going to hell-in-a-hand basket..Texas racing future is not looking so great....
I am just Thankful that I am able to wager online...I would hate to have to drive to Delta all the time. Course I might save a few $$ by having to do that too..lol

I realize they probably don't update their calendars that often, but.....

We are three days from opening day at Tampa and I don't see it on Youbet's or Twinspires' calendars for Saturday.

If I can only play Tampa on track, I will flip....and probably get fired.

I think I saw somewhere that Tampa signed agreement with all ADW's, but don't take my word for it

Beast, Good luck to you as well. I feel like I'm playing with house money because I was pretty brutal in the original contest on 11/29/08. Not that I'm going to do any better, but these races are more to my liking.

are thier any cash prizes for this contest?

if there isnt any prizes then you are probably paying
250 bucks for a trip to vegas. you could probabbly booka weekend trip for 300,400 dollars otherwise.

Just playing along to see how I would have done. If any good, I might print up and send in attached to resume to DRF to become new resident 'capper. That is, if someone already hasn't nailed down the position.

Best of luck guys!!! Bring it home.
