you never really hear adws release numbers (maybe they do in their quarterly earnings reports, I don't read them), but 22K people is a shockingly low number of people to have wagered on NYRA via an ADW as major as Twinspires over such a long period of time.
That's pretty sobering. I knew horseplayer numbers were small, I didn't realize they were *that* small.

Twinspires doesn't rebate, so they lose a whole host of players just because of that.
I applaud them refunding their players. It was a simple decision of take the profit, or send it where it should've gone in the first place. I think it's awesome that they made the right decision. Hopefully the rest of the ADW's will follow suit, or, if they rebated the extra percent, at least let their players know.

TwinSpires.com marketing vice president Jeremy Clemons said on the Byk show today that Twinspires gave back a"few" hundred thousand.

On Twinspires is it shown as a "Pos_Adjustment" in the accounting section?
