Does the video look like it is from the 80's?

It's John Horne from Vernon Downs, he's one of the worst, seems to be the main guy who fills in at Saratoga when Mike Sardella is off.

1 of the races he called a horse rolling up on the outside in 4th.  The horse never left the rail

NY tracks are predominantly what I watch and there is not a good announcer in Ny State.

The guy at Batavia and Buffalo is decent. Agree about the others.

Respectfully disagree, not a fan of his at all, and those are my home tracks. Another wannabe

Probably the same as Mark Ford's internet trolls. Not much talent equals not much pay!

  • dougie: No tournament play there. Two many young cowboys bullying us old guys. Just straight poker. A lot of fun, but you could get hurt if you don't know the players.

  • Trigger: When I refer to cash game I'm thinking non tourn or sit n go, casinos I've played in never let you play for cash only chips but technically a ring game is a cash game too.

  • dougie: Private games are cash only. But the table uses chips to cause no confusion. Buy-in it $1G with 2 other buy in allowed. It is strictly Texas Holdem. Is is no limit but most of the players know each other. No kids playing. I'd say the average age was about 40. Food is included. Usually subs and pizza. Occasionally Chinese food.

  • dougie: We had 8 tables going and the 1G prize is every hour. Todays game is the third private game I ever played. I starting to enjoy private games.

  • Trigger: How many tables partake in the 1g prize and is it 30m or an hour?
