Yep. Would be so asinine that I would be shocked if that was the standard.
As for skimming, yes, if they only wanted to take 1% of the pool , then it might be hard to detect. Only way to prevent that is a strict demand that all bets be IN by off time or very close to it, with only the rarest of exceptions for some transmission glitch.
If I bet at my ADW, I'm dependent on them to ACKnowledge the bet after it's placed. No ACK , no bet. If CRW's are held to a looser standard, that would be an issue. This is something that can be verified with CRW account holders or the hubs.
