also offer this wager. Nobody has still answered my first 2 questions yet. What disadvantage is this to a track? Why don't gamblers play 10 10 cent supers to play with the tax loophole?

it is an advantage to the track because they are churning more wagers. they simply fractionalize all wagers to the dime level for calculation purposes. those who don't bet the dime and use the dollar are not familiar with the loophole, are to lazy to ask for ten dime tickets, or just don't care. it would certainly behoove them(if i may say behoove, LoL)to bet the dime instead of the dollar.
