we covered this before, there is no way to back that up and it doesn't make any sense. why base your wagering menu on a few geezers walking around with $10 to wager? even if you succeeded in capturing the full $10 from all these people by not offering the dime super (which I dont believe is possible), do all those $10 add up to more than you lose from the ADW people that like the dime supers but go elsewhere cause you don't offer it? or how about the $10 players who stay home because they came to the track specically to play them?
