Commissions do we really need them
« on: February 24, 2024, 06:36:42 PM »
AGCO is as worthless as tits on a bull.
Trainer gets 10 grand and two yr suspension for a class II positive, appeals,,, because he is good friends with a judge that used to attend his illegal gambling parlor.Gets another positive...he lives on the farm where the training centre is...so what does the AGCO do, they let him use the guy that works for him as trainer..so if you have a FULL suspension how are you getting away with this..
They mine as well just eliminate commissions.

there is no defense for stupidity
to answer your very valid point  i guess based on recent examples they are useless and just some guys collecting a salary and not wanting to rock the boat

  • Trigger: We better focus like Calhoun said on doing the homework, as of now we couldn't pick a show winner in a 4 horse race.  Then we'll take down a score.

  • Papillon: I don't think they are playing every combo, but they are betting more $ in the carryover races

  • Trigger: Flawed, if there is a carryover not every combo is being played.  You can't make money having playing AAAAAA if there 200 winners.  If CAW is winning everything why play, they're surviving off a low % of rebate against win/loss and work with gigantic volume.

  • Papillon: o agree with MTP1972-much more CAW action in the carryovers-not sure how much more than standard-the carryover is a mirage

  • MTP1972: I have a different take on carryovers. If you're betting a track who has a good handle like Mohawk the Early Pick 5 pool is around $100,000, maybe $50,000 for the Pick 4 pool. When there's a carryover the CAW's bet thousands into the pool and have every combination covered multiple times. In a smaller pool there's a better chance for a big score because less of their money is in there, same for the Pick 6 in California.

  • Trigger: Thanks Calhoun, GL to you too, big scores ahead!  Check out Mohawk last Sat early p5, $67891.89 .20 payout w/ 3 horses < 3-1 odds, the other 2 races, nw1 and claimers, wow, the perfect storm.
