It's a bad place for me to go because I'm addicted to betting on horse races (although I went about 15 years without doing it ...)

It's good for me that it's only on weekends, but I'm frustrated by the fact that they're about 50 years behind in their betting system - no trifectas, superfectas, or multi-race wagers like Pick 3's or Pick 6's...

Also, I suspect that it's really corrupt, with favorites coming in (from what I've seen...) at least 70% of the time (compared to about 30% in the U.S.)

Since I only play exactas - and cover all the ones that I think have a chance that will pay a decent amount - I'm presently on a long losing streak there.

(However, I'm still ahead because last month I nailed a once-in-a-blue moon exacta with two big long shots and collected over 5 million won - in 10,000 won bills, of course ...)
