Pure and utter garbage. Just garbage. Yes, some people are hurting for money and those people would be hurting in a "good" economy, too.
Why can't people understand the real truth behind the staggering decline. It is almost parallel with the influx of illegal drugs in the game. Once big players started to feel the game was not legitimate, they left and are on to other things. When you take away enough huge players, the handle declines, the takeout raises, more people leave, less people win, etc.
I can't believe people don't understand that the trainers that are cheating and winning at 35, 45, 55 percent are doing so at the collapse of the game. The fact that trainers like Chambers, Guerrero, Ness, etc keep winning at this high rate means the game can't or won't clean it up. PED's mean speed carries. Speed that carries = even money at most tracks. AQU and SA are littered with $18 pick 4 payouts. All of this is killing the popularity of the game. Thus, real players will stay away.
Not hard to understand.
