do any of you guys bet on us racing with tabcorp of a morning?

i am interested in us racing and think that it provides an opportunity to take advantage of local fixed odds. however, i tried to place a number of moderate bets this morning and found it so frustrating.

i had all my bets reduced from my original request and some reduced outright.

at turf paradise they moved a price out from $2.30 to $2.50 - i asked for $350 and had my bet reduced to $50 @ $2.50 - to win $75!

a little later i tried to have a bet at portland. i requested a bet of $200 @ 3.8 to only have my bet rejected outright and the price reduced to 3.2. undeterred i asked for $250 @ 3.2 straight away, only to have it rejected and the price reduced to 2.9. i know that other people are betting as well but, these are not large bets and were placed as soon as the prices changed. i thought it was a 7/4 chance and it duly won.

why would a $3billion company be afraid to lay something for a monkey?

there were other examples throughout the morning. honestly i dont know why they bother.

Hi rufustfirefly
Have the occasional US flutter myself but with sportsbet
Some bets similar size

Think they tap into the US Tote
