I'm curious as to whether WEG plans to do anything about the odds manipulation going on lately. Numerous times in the last two weeks a bomb has opened up at 6-5 7-5 etc only to be 25-1 in a minute or two.
That's just some asshat somewhere who bets then cancels just to see he accomplished something. A couple thoughts:
1. On a slow night the win pool is $20k. I'm assuming the first odds change occurs and shows as soon as they close the prior race, no matter how much (or little) is wagered into "the open." How much is in the win pool when the odds first change?
2. I don't think it matters anyways. There's rolling p-3's so the will-pays are the better early indicator, certainly when the pool has little action.
