I wonder if you would feel similarly if he had six of your figures tied up in this scam.

You know better then anyone else that I have lost significant money on such matters,perhaps not identical but clearly in the same genre.. I would be pissed but mostly at myself for allowing myself to fall victim.. Have you ever subjected yourself to such risk even before your NYRA employeement? I dont recall you betting in dubious reward spots..You never shopped for the best deal maybe you were stupid and lucky or maybe you were smart ,but clearly the Hinsdale hounds club,owned by an individual, could be as safe or as well capitalized or regulated as NYRA and clearly anybody who didnt recognize that in advance should be pissed..

Sure I think it sucks...but don't you think this happens in even the most legit forms of life.. If you want to be 100% secure that your wagering account is imdeminfied against loss maybe Bernie B over at the FDIC should take a cut of those rebates? You want 5 back? apparently there is some risk involved..

Hinsdale bettors finally to see some $$??

This story had faded for a few months, but you might remember Kasept pointing out the serious $$ lost by some major palyers when this track folded with their accounts frozen. It seems as though there might be some faint light at the end of the tunnel here.

I can only hope that it get resolved quickly, cleanly, and that peole who ahve had their hard earned and hard won moneys denied to them might be made whole.

I do not get to contribute much of substance, so I have tried to keep an eye on this one.

Final Hinsdale Settelement
 

The forces of greed win again! Sullivan walks out of court without handcuffs. Bettors will end up with about 1/2 of what was in their accounts when they shut the doors. It beats a hot stick in the eye, but after a 15% - 25% take out, then to lose 50% just for having an account, it makes it hard on the working and betting man.

If you want to read the details, go to sentinelsource.com, it is one of today's top stories.

Kasept, I hope those you know see their frozen assets back soon and hope this has contributed some to those who have taught me a lot about the game and given me a lot of laughs along the way.
