Mathcapper, thanks for the response. I understand how the DD Will Pays can be used to approximate Win Pool Will Pays. But that wasn't the subject I was commenting on. My reference to will-pays was strictly Win Pool related. When the odds I saw posted in the Win Pool no longer correlated to what a Win ticket would pay, I lost interest in wagering. That was the only point I was making. I understand that Boscar thinks that nothing has really changed in that area. Well, I guess we just see it differently. I first started wagering on horse races a half-century ago. In my opinion there was a dramatic change that occurred a few years ago and it effected my play. I also understand that an analysis of a DD pool can potentially provide an indication on what the Win Pool will pay. But that analysis is unreliable in many cases and in fact a DD pool doesn't always exist. My only point was that for me, this became a big enough issue that I have essentially stopped playing. That's my only point. Just one man's opinion. Just one customer lost to horse racing. Maybe I'm the only one. I've commented on this enough. Probably too much. I'll drop the subject and go back to lurking. I enjoy following all the comments on this board.
