Horses bring everyone together. We can ask Steve to name the next Dee Tee horse Kumbayah

Its possible that I might be down the first week of February, but only in Orlando area for a couple days then heading to Miami for R/R. I already have the fever as we are about to get slammed with 4-6 inches of snow tonight.

That whole 1% change is really an additional $100 in their 10k total P3 pools, too bad for Exacta Bob, he gets nothing additional in the exactas.

I seem to have much less trouble with TVG. Xpressbet is just trouble. One time those idiots said they didn't charge my card for bets made 2 months ago etc., and that I need to take care of it. That's how incompetent they are. On big days, Xpressbet has been a nightmare. One time they took bets from me, and told me they didn't go through. So, of course, the next day I see that I've been charged for duplicate bets. They try to lure me back with free bet offers, but I really think Drunk Russians would do a better job running that site.

They're not allowed to drink, or gamble. Besides, a new business is opening, so they've got to sacrifice a farm animal out in front of it.

SCUDS - Had a HUGE problem with XpressBet 3-4 years ago on Derby Day - huge delays, bets not getting logged and so forth - so I only keep it open for Magna 5 season - but TS has got to go. I've not heard anything bad about TVG

Except you have to pay to bet. 25 cents per wager

I have no idea of their balla program, and I think it would be safe to assume that they don't charge that on people that bet a certain amount, but hitting me for a quarter every time I bet is f'n ridiculous.

I only opened an account with them when they did some insane Illinois offer, where the first 100 to sign up get free for life on everything. Never placed a single dollar through the comedy company though, refuse to support employment of Ken Rudoloph

Yea, unless you bet a certain amount each month. Then, it's free. Ain't too bad if you're a horizontal player.
