Moose,
Somewhat like the DFS inside info scandal, bots wired into a rebate houses pool data feed attach their handicapping software program. The program seeks out certain plays and make many bets in the last few seconds before the stop betting command locks the pools.Regular players cannot do that.
The debate is whether or not tracks should permit bots in the pool as they have a perceived,or real edge,over the average player.Data from the wagering MIS systems show a much stronger flow of net funds to hubs/ADW's that have high volume rebate whales using computer programs and batch betting.
So, would have to guess there's an edge.This gets back to high takeout and the resulting substantial rebates being given to a very select group.
