$1 minimum on supers is ridiculous.

How unfortunate it is that the powers that be require $1 Minimum on superfecta wagering for Kentucky Derby.

I don’t expect the usual $.10 supers but $.50 cent supers would increase their take tremendously. And attracting new betters and old ones like myself to play these paramutual’s is really there bottom line I would assume, isnt it?

I know for myself I would easily spend $200 more to play a wider range of horses to try to win a superfecta throughout the day.

I’m sure they must realize this, but I can only assume that it is too much of a hassle.Lol

 Bovada use to have .10 cent Supers, but ofcourse they caught on a few years back and minimum $1. Sick greedy twisted monsters they are. No chance they give you for an edge.

 Well, That's Churchill...the Devil of sports.

And whose idea was it to move the Oaks to 8:30 at night? Are they trying to sell more mint juleps?

 Hey Myke.....NBC thinks it is a good way to fill its prime time programming.

At a time when racing needs to draw more fans/money into the industry, they need to listen to customers who support racing. 

doc is right about the $1 minimum on the SUPER's which I rarely play. Normally I'll play up to $500 on a regular weekend but probably play a few hundy more on a day like Saturday. I'm a rolling doubles player with tri keys & WPS plays. Will wheel something I really like & hope for a bomb to run 2nd are my style of plays.

I'll probably watch FanDuel's broadcast & turn on NBC to see Brittany Eurton's smile on NBC & catch this John Fanta character. I'll watch the races online with TwinSpires which are "real time" rather than watch the satellite delayed NBC programming.

NBC will interview their "TV" stars just to plug their shows & blah blah blah. 

I'll be playing a few on Friday but will play the entire card Saturday. Today I'm looking at other tracks for a few stable plays & jockey pickup mounts because regular jocks will be at Churchill. Jocks like Loco Paco, Jose Lezcano, Santana & Dylan Davis can rack up a few wins.
