i've swore by them, but ever since the meca of twinspires tv, i've shifted gears.

while i wager enough to get one free video feed, i like using 2, and that comes out of pocket, all the while you can watch as many as 5 tracks at twinspires for nothing. IMO the equibase pp's are inferior to the brisnet pp's, youbet is also lacking in promotions. I've been hooked on twinspires, i think they run a tight ship (having said that i've only used xrpessbet 1-2 times and that was years ago, sorry)

I'm a YouBet guy ever since we started working closely with them at LAD and now have friends who work there as well. They are really turning corners in terms of advancing their platform and lots of good things are coming down the road. Their interface, in my opinion, particularly the advanced wager pad, is so far ahead of any other pad out there.

no, don't be sorry. It's all helpful. Doesn't YouBet charge per wager? If they do, I just can't see increasing the already exhorbitant takeout. In that case, I'd stay with TS.

Youbet does not charge per wager but there is a monthly fee unless you handle $350 in a month. Unless you're a wealthy track announcer like Travis Stone, you may find the $350/month a tad onerous.

Ha. Or if I was a superstar handicapper with a girls bag.

But in all seriousness... with normal churn $350 / month is not difficult to achieve if you can afford it. Churn is the horseplayers friend.

No, they do not charge per wager. If you bet at least $350 a month you get free use of video and stats for that month, $2500 in a year you get a year free service. you also get free pp's if you bet at least $2.00 on that track that day.

I have an Xpressbet and NYRA account and I used to have a Brisbet account but Youbet is much better in my opinion.

Agree. The wager pad at Youbet is far superior to the others.
