It seems like Mike Beer has given out a few good plays.

He's been a great addition to Talking Horses. He's the only partner I've ever seen Andy defer to.

I've been Mike's biggest fan for a long time.

Heard a story yesterday at MP about Mike Beer dealing with fans after a seminar with Illman at GP. People who I did not know spoke for 5 minutes about him and how, on his own time, he spent an additional 30 minutes teaching them about the game. The only reason I post this is because people really dont realize how helpful some of the public cappers can be to teach people the game. It was very nice to listen to them opine about Beer and and how gracious he is.

One thing I see on the horizon that might affect TF usage is that I'm starting to see racetracks' WiFi block out several websites. I've seen this at three tracks so far, and it's not just competing ADW sites affected.

I have used TF's PDFs and I am slowly getting used to them, but using them online would be preferable. I'd hate to show up at a track, though, and have TF's site blocked.

Has anyone else experienced this?

Of course I could just use a 4G connection but...

Wasn't really questioning the quality of the product or the people involved, just asking are they succeeding as a business. They have some substantial backing, in theory, so they can take awhile to get their footing.

The TVG connection is a washout for me, since I can't bear to listen to most people on there.

There are several sites get redirected when trying to access them at Gulfstream Park. They redirect to xpressbet.com.

easy fix: I disable wifi and use 4g

I never connect to any kind of financial account any other way.

YMMV.
