Anyone bet the rolling doubles at The Meadowlands?

I've played a few and thought the payoffs on my horses were more than fair. Theyve been pounding odds on horses. I like that; generally I'll play a longshot with a few live horses.

The last double in the 13 and 14 was generous. The chalk was pounded in the last.

The 7 in the 13th paid $4.40 and the 6 in the last $16.40.

I'd be happy if I hit that with the return.

I would think @ $45 to $50 should be the return there.

If you want to play doubles you can't wager on two chalks and you have to watch the probables and play one or two DD late.

I made my first post with the pools before the races were over, that was a decent double.

But everyone is used to playing a DD in the first two and last two races.

These guys are intentionally focusing on the takeout and avoiding addressing the reasons the Meadowlands gave for making the change in format.

They churn and burn....slow and steady decline....6% slower due to the lower takeout.

With thoughts like that from swoodall, no wonder he is a big loser.. slow and steady wins the race, always has, always will

Hey! I have a great idea!

Why don't we let the worst cheaters harness racing has ever known decide on how to attract the gamblers back?

If those new DD pools can average $10,000, the Einsteins like you will have an extra $600 to share with the lower takeout.

If you clowns think an extra $600 divided among the winning tickets under this new format is going to attract T-Bred players, new players or additional wagering money then you lost your friggin minds.

Thanks Darin

One of the few intelligent things u have ever said

Really?

19% vs 25% is going to add anywhere from an extra $390 to $720 in the DD pools using tonight's numbers.

You have lost the big picture.

You are the master of low expectations!

Continuous use of that Volcano Vaporizer has you believing a lower takeout adding an extra $600 into the pool is going to make a difference on where gamblers are going to wager their money.

My original point was T-Bred players will laugh in the face of any harness racing executive who tries to convince them this new format is a good deal.

Blaming takeout for small pool sizes is an excuse that won't change a damn thing.
