And where do you think the money the bettors wanted to bet on the P-5 but couldn't went ?
I think it's a safe guess to say that it was spent on wagers that 95% of the public could actually make.

You said everyone took their money to other venues. They didn't. The potential of the wager to an unrestricted audience is a different discussion. That wasn't the discussion you initiated, so take your bait and switch tactics elsewhere..
