Yawn...http://drf.com/news/article/108811.html

Again these are U.S. players who use the rebate shops, which still carry Cali racing.

you might want to trade in the boots and try a hat and umbrella instead.

if you're churning in the tens of thousands/month it doesn't make sense not to do this.

maine hub + winning pick 6 ticket = whale.

This is the ONLY place in Lewiston,Maine you can make a bet,and you can only do it in person,and they do not offer rebates,and I have been there,so please explain your theory of how it is done by a whale from somewhere else.

"California regulators decided Feb. 20 that they will hold off on considering a cutoff of wagering at post time from betting through the Lewiston, Maine simulcast hub, which processes wagers for rebating giant Racing and Gaming Services."

Nah it was likely a shivering Maine housewife playing her cats birthday. That makes more sense.

you do get the overall point that lewiston has been, at least in the past (the 5 words after the comma are just for your benefit), a major hub for taking offshore money?

because if you concede that, i think it's for you to prove that's no longer the case.

you should try politics/society. you're a natural for that forum.

The biggest rebater in the world, Racing and Gaming Services, has their hub in Lewiston, Maine.

Who else would have played a ticket large enough to cover a $63, $44 and $52 horse but a whale with a rebate shop?
