I need to research this more but I believe most people play the same amount of money they did when it was a dollar at the .50 interval and get more coverage especially to the mid level 15-25 dollar horses they wouldn't have gotten previously. More people are sharing thus depressed payouts. Steve's base bet on the selections thread is basically the same $75 bucks it was when P4's were a dollar. I think most people (Me and You for instance) are doing the same thing. I'll take this up as a project over the winter to see average payout to $1 when the min was a dollar vs now.
