Hong Kong Jockey Club

[Albatross77]

I read in a trade pub a couple years ago that it was legal to bet through HKJC and get track odds. You have to declare funds if you transfer out of Hong Kong to US account. I researched the HKJC platform and that appears to be the case.

The pools are so small at places like Northfield that if you bet 500 to win on a 9 to 1 shot…the horse then drops to 1 to 9. Any thoughts from the Punters?

So does the money not comingle?

[Albatross77]

No it doesn't comingle with US pools. But probably 34% W4 amount due to Fed Gov if the money is moved. Small pools are bad for bettors so many gamblers don't bet harness except A tracks.

I live in NJ and my ADW allows you to bet directly in to the international pools

last night for race 1 the win pool was $2.7 mil and the place/show pool was $2.2 mil

Thanks...that's exactly what I was looking for because it's a better way and the us tracks get a cut. I'll check ADW out for my state.
Then I wouldn't have to worry about a regime change seizing my money. lol
