And especially in today's day and age. Anyone who is newly attracted to horse racing by TV exposure and decides to turn bettor will get a quick lesson on the cost of being a bettor by doing a couple of Google searches.<BR/><BR/>The game needs to change its pricing and then growth will become possible. Until then....the ship will continue to sink.Cangamblehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08077208015482606831noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6037940159956945489.post-16420441923516332872009-03-18T16:02:00.000-04:002009-03-18T16:02:00.000-04:00Holy cow, sure is easy to see you are a horseplaye...Holy cow, sure is easy to see you are a horseplayer.

It's a nice bonus if I'm at the track, but it's not why I'm watching the rest of the time. I really just want to watch the pretty horses run in big circles - that's it!Superfectahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13160193760814449962noreply@blogger.com
