Question A study

This was posted on the PA board. Interesting stuff.

All this discussion makes me think of the euro bookmakers who offer their own odds and whether we might get back to that instead of the pari mutual system. Thoughts ?

Its easier and faster to make $30000 bets online then cancelling it. Imagine counting 30k cash at the track then counting it again when cancelling.

I have no problem with someone canceling a bet...if this is his habit than just put his action in closer to the gate opening so if he cancels before hand, no harm no foul
