Hi Mike,
I hope all is well in Miff land?
I've had this conversation and opinion for a number of years: which has made me an 85% horizontal player. My only "opinion" on whether or not they reach into pick 3,4,5 and 6 pools is if they had a program that would fill in the blanks with something like a thoro pattern reaching out past the rolling doubles into logical numerical contenders? My personal feeling is that is far too random for the computer geeks!
The best example of pools being destroyed and I'm sure our resident pool watcher Boscar will confirm are the exacta and tri pools at Gulf in the winter. The inner tube has become a joke for most, Cali doesn't start until later in the day, Fair Grounds short fields and turf course issues the last couple of winters along with Tampa simply being the land of Ness have made Gulf the winter track de jour and the exacta and tri payoffs the past couple of years are simply pathetic with the usual suspects! Toss in the move up colony and they have ruined what was once a very profitable venture for MOI causing me to significantly pull back on my wagering at my 2nd favorite venue.
Bot wagering, pool integrity and drugs are and have chased real handicappers who love the game, the intellectual challenge of trying to beat a mathematical anomaly away and offer little allure to the younger numbers savy gamblers!
