just think of it this way, the board will never click until the horse reaches at LEAST the number posted.

in NY, where they have twentieths of odds in their system, a horse that is $2.50-1 will show as 5-2 on the board. A horse that is $2.80-1 will still show as 5-2 as will a horse that is $2.95-1. Until the horse actually HITS 3-1, the horse won't be listed as such.

Imagine betting a horse at 3-1 on the board and only getting back $7.60. You'd be pissed

I did go to school as a math major ya know I just later became a bleeding heart liberal and felt I needed to read more immigrant literature!
