Racing from the state of California will not be offered at this time as they are not commercially viable. As such we will not offer any products on it for the time being - tote, LV, exchange, etc.


Not ommercially viable? WTF?

[jjgold]

I do not think they were doing much volume there because of time difference

[davidchong]

So Presque Isle Downs and Evangeline is better than Del Mar or any California Tracks... WOW!

I think theyre hidden some information or.... CALIFORNIA banned BetFair.........

[jjgold]

The tracks that have live video feeds with betfair as far as USA tracks get the highest volume

[Br0nxer]

polytrack

[davidchong]

Yes.... confirmed !!, Betfair not allowed to take action in horses From California State, neither exchange or tote bets.

no del mar? crazy..

[Kindred]

Taxes are too high so Betfair can't turn a profit..not commercially viable

That's the problem with regulation, governments can overtax gambling to the point that nobody can make any money. I look forward to the government ending it's oppression of people who gamble, but I still hope there are offshore options available to us so we aren't at the mercy of state and federal taxes/regulations

[davidchong]

Then why Betfair purchase TVG?,
I think buying TVG, things should be easier......

no del mar? crazy..
