Horse racing question.....(wrong forum i know)

[shorty3830]

BC, sorry, i know we have a separate forum for horse racing, but as the total degenerate gambler i am, i am looking for a quick answer and figure more people look at this site, so here goes::

On directv, channel 602 has live horse racing and decent handicappers giving their analysis.....actually 3 saturdays in a row, i have done rather well (jinx) watching these people and following them

however, come to find out, my site does not give great odds, do not take pick 3's, pick 4's and max's out win, place and show bets, can anyone reommend a better site than mine (olympic) ?? which is great for sports but not so good for racing

thanks

Shorty one of the Sponsors here TCB is great

Also Pinnacle gives you back 7% on bets.

5 Dimes gives you 10% on winning bets from certain tracks.

VIP gives you 15% back....they offer you every exotic bet except for the pick 6 and have no limits on their paybacks....some sportsbooks will cap you at 300-1 odds...they pay you on track odds..... i just checked they do have bet limit payouts but they're very strong....

Shorty,

To add to what others are saying. Make sure your book doesn't cap payoffs on exotic wagers like Pick 3s, trifectas, superfectas, etc. Most offshores are booking the bests themselves so they put in these caps. A few are actually comingling right into the American pools and don't have caps. The best are the ones that don't have a cap and don't comingle either.

shorty , i understand your decison but i just checked their payout limits and they're weak.... all offshore sportsbooks have limits because they all book the action...the above mentioned sportsbook has much better payouts...for instance on a pick 4 payout your capped at 300-1 at vip it's 2000-1 !!!! that's a huge differnce !!!! it's already happened to me...i hit a pick 3 at keenland last november that paid 1,300 for a dollar and got 300... after that i went on a search for best horse book online...trust me you don't want to be in that spot especially if your going to play the tvg plays...those guys are good cappers and will find some bombs for you so make sure you get the best possible payouts....any sportsbook is okay if you just want to play horses to win or some exacta's , but if you want to play pick 3's , pick 4's and triples don't do it with these guys...

i just checked pinnacle and they have a strong program..they have what they call net profit payout limits but they're very strong ...most big tracks they cap you at 25,000 net profit which is very strong....of all the sponsoring books on this site they look the strongest....
