Link???

You can't even log onto Betfair's site as Betfair has IP tracking software and notices that you are coming in from the US.

WILL BETFAIR BECOME A PLAYER IN THE U.S.?
By Ray Paulick

http://www.paulickreport.com/blog/wi...yer-in-the-us/

Are betting exchanges a possible solution to the problems facing the U.S. Thoroughbred industry, which in 2008 saw its annual pari-mutuel handle fall for the fourth time in six years, dropping over 7% to a 10-year low? The Thoroughbred Owners of California thinks they may be, having recently signed a letter of agreement with betting exchange giant BetFair to have the UK-based company promote California racing abroad while TOC helps BetFair obtain statutory and regulatory approval to operate a betting exchange in California.
