I just spoke with BetAmerica and they will stop all accounts from Texas starting midnight tonight.

This ruling is just another reason for me to quit wagering on Horses b/c I'm not driving 2 hrs to Lone Star Park.

I have said the inability for horse racing to not be able to collectively get intrastate horse racing available to ALL who want to bet over the computer is the biggest reason why racing has not met its potential.

The same thing Texas players are going through we are went through in Az a few years ago.

racing has got to quit treating other tracks as competitors. they need to join together and seek what they need as a SPORT. look at the nfl, etc. we can't be as large as them, but we can copy their successes.

Tell me about it. So now me being a weekend player have now been reduced to going to the track maybe 2-3 times a year. I am sure this is the case for most texas players. How is this progress?
Does SHRP and Lone Star have a huge inventory of Cold hot dogs and Hot beers at 18 bucks a pop that they need to sell to make a profit?

Couldn't agree more and if you know whom to contact to complain, let me know. Not that it will make a difference, but will make me feel better in a way.

I will start first by finding out who was the judge that made the ruling and send him a christmas card.

There are a few websites that we can bet thru....as i mentioned earlier...Kind of strange they make me bet a minimum of .90 cents when playing pik 3 or pik 4......atleast i still can play.

They are just worried about your present location. If you are logging in out-of-state but have residence in Texas, this is allright. At least that is the explanation BetAmerica told me.

The court opinion is amazing...http://blogs.courier-journal.com/hor...t-decision.pdf

This is my favorite quote:

"Gambling has always been addictive, but before the internet, at least the
addicts had to go to the trouble of driving somewhere to place his bet. The internet allows the addict to get his fix 24/7/365, all without leaving the comfort of his own home."
