Don't sell yourself short Freak. After reading your in depth commentary on the Driver's dick thread,I bet you can swallow alot.
My state blocked my wagering account about 2 months ago. They cracked down. Nearest OtB is 20 minutes away. I get off work at 5.. I have already thrown all my Mohawk programs away. Fuckem . I will move on. Like I said before I feel raped and totally let down. Hard to swallow. I won’t even look at the results.
You been crying about getting beat out of a $52k carry over for a week. WTF. They always go with mandatory payooon big handle days. Take the day off early if you think you can hit it.

If you say so but why would your state "crack down" on your account? Isin't there more than one betting platform available where you are? As for Mohawk programs every single one since August of 2022 is still available for download on the Mohawk Woodbine website.
I live in a state that does not have online wagering. I had an account but some politician decided to enforce the law. Every one else too got blocked also.
Be glad you missed out. The management at AGCO just took down the pot
Not so glad I didn’t get a ticket. Like I said before the race. I will not patronize Woodbine Mohawk. I will concentrate on other tracks that might care. This makes two tracks on my list now. Hoosier and Mohawk. Hoosier I haven’t wagered for 2 years. They insist on rolling the gate at the exact same moment as the Meadowlands. They have HOP horses and drivers running in big events and they say NOTHING.Zero promotion of the sport. Now Mohawk can stick it in their ASS. Don’t anyone accuse me of being a whiny bitch either. If you run a track then FUCKING know who your customers are!!!!!
I get it, the monies from the nightly races creates a pool which is going to be paid out from a daytime race card. Do I think the track intentionally tried to screw people. No. Handle is fungible. A dollar is a dollar. On the other hand, do I think tracks truly care about bettors? Aside from big bettors, no. Nothing new there. It's the casino vs. racetrack discussion. If you saw the pool as having your money in it, and you felt you had a good chance to hit it---then you do what you have to do to play the card. If you can't because of work, sorry, tough luck. If you can't because your account got shut down or you got locked out, again that's on you. Not the track's fault (unless they shut it down, LOL). Bottom line is if you are a casual player, this is the game you chose to play. If you are a professional, then this doesn't apply to you. It is what it is, and if you don't like go find another game. It's a harsh reality. The premier tracks will survive, they will be the only ones left, and eventually they will thrive. It's the John Deere story.
Mohawk first made the announcement about the mandatory payout on December 20th, which gave you 5 or 6 days to figure out a way to bet it. Even with a huge pool, I find a 12-horse field too difficult to handicap, and way too expensive to make a serious wager, so I never got involved.
I get it. It's not like they changed their post time the day before, LOL. Post time is scheduled long in advance and nobody has any idea if there's going to be a carry-over or not. It's just the way it works out.
It still could have been hit on the few cards prior to the mandatory payout on December 26th, which would have made the mandatory payout pool next to nothing.
