New Posts For Thread: US Racing place bets disappearedhttps://community.betfair.com/u.s._horse_racing/go/thread/view/94202/31542381/us-racing-place-bets-disappearedSince yesterday Betfair exchange don't allow place bets to be made, not even on major tracks, like Belmont, Woodbine, Parx. Would someone explain to me, WHY NOT????!!!!I think, this whole thing in a relation to Betfair-Paddy Power fusion.

Of course, it would be a different story, if big time US players were usihttps://community.betfair.com/u.s._horse_racing/go/thread/view/94202/31542381/us-racing-place-bets-disappeared?post_id=557821473#557821473I think, this whole thing in a relation to Betfair-Paddy Power fusion.
