I'm a bit behind you with only 25 years of tote
watching, but the difference (I suspect) is that
I have taken the time to do the computations and
find out just how much money is involved in these
so-called "wrong payoffs". Most of the time, it's
less than $200 "extra" bet on the payoff in question.
Large charge.

Which would seem to tie in perfectly with the smallball
amount of the "extra" money bet...and should we really
care if one or two guys light up a few combos with an
extra c-note or two? Didn't you write earlier that there
are many times when the short payoffs are on the combos
that *did not* hit?
You and all the other mutuel monitors are simply niggling over nickels.
