How Have Training Methods Changed
« on: October 20, 2023, 09:41:37 AM »
As an ex-owner it seems that the training of the harness horse must have changed a lot in recent decades. Where the sport used to place a big emphasis on building a horses’s foundation it now has become a sport of very high speed. So what are honest trainers doing differently to rev up their horses to be competitive in today’s racing world?

On young horses, double headers rather than 2 separate trips

  • dougie: No tournament play there. Two many young cowboys bullying us old guys. Just straight poker. A lot of fun, but you could get hurt if you don't know the players.

  • Trigger: When I refer to cash game I'm thinking non tourn or sit n go, casinos I've played in never let you play for cash only chips but technically a ring game is a cash game too.

  • dougie: Private games are cash only. But the table uses chips to cause no confusion. Buy-in it $1G with 2 other buy in allowed. It is strictly Texas Holdem. Is is no limit but most of the players know each other. No kids playing. I'd say the average age was about 40. Food is included. Usually subs and pizza. Occasionally Chinese food.

  • Trigger: How many tables partake in the 1g prize and is it 30m or an hour?
