Default Question

I'm sure it's been asked on this board before I got here. Maybe a simple answer, maybe not so simple:

Why doesn't NYRA offer rolling doubles like CA and other places? Why no super's on all of the races?

good question on the rolling doubles, i am not sure the answer.... i think they just went to rolling pick 3's this year, i dont ever remember a pick 3 on races 1-3, or at the begining of the late pick 4, untill now

There's only so much money to be bet and how much do you want to dilute other multi-race bets?

That would be awesome.. You should contact NYRA with this idea I imagine the idea would go over BIG... Do you believe in Big foot?

They really should copy Churchill and create the Over/Under bet in each race. Then take up all the time on the simulcast feed showing the 'magic' number and payoffs.

It handles like $300 a race....right?

The funny thing about that bet is that it's actually pretty clever....too mathematically clever for most people and even those that understand it wouldn't waste their time wrapping their minds around it.....especially considering the pool size.
