Title: We need fixed odds ....NOW
Post by: PurpleSheetPicks on May 16, 2026, 11:28:54 PM
Race 12 at md
6 goes to the gate even money
Goes off 1 to 5.
Thats 80% less expected value for a gambler
This is on a Saturday night at the mecca meadowlands

And we wonder why the sport is dying. No one is going to bet real money getting an 80% less return than expected

Fixed odds aren't that hard i dont get why no one sees how this is such an easy fix.

I'm taking about an 80% differential guy..
10 to 20 percent is one thing
This is 4x as bad
And such an easy fix

I've been posting for a while about this at b tracks
Never expected 80% changes at meadowlands on a Saturday night

All the problems this sport has pail in comparison to this one
People  bet millions on lottery with a 50% take out, all because they know the payoff. People will bet millions on anything as long as they know the payoffs. People aren't going to bet serious money with this high a fluctuation on return.
