Mr Brown
We spoke about 10 or 11 years ago when I bet on horses seriously.
My group and I bet about $15,000 per week in the good old days. And in the real good old days a little bit more.
In 2014-2015 I played almost every day of Gulfstream bet about $150-$200 per day. It was just for fun, give me something to do during the afternoons.
Once Gulfstream closed I played maybe 10 or 12 times DMR SAR MTH.
Again Maybe $150-$200 per day but without a doubt not more.
If you can convince Cantebury to have an 8% take and a wagering menu almost identical to Gulfstreams maybe I start betting serious again.
And that is how you convince the other tracks to do what we want. You put your money where your mouth is.
F the rebate shops; the same take for everybody, let the better man win that's the American Way.
Thanks
