All of Benter's play was in Hong Kong for the specific purpose of being able to bet into its huge pools without having it affect his odds. He bet both straight and exotic pools, and given his high hit rate, had action of some kind in nearly every race.

I think you got tangled up along the way.
The best reply I can make is to cut and paste excerpts from my prior post.

Nowhere do I say that earning a living wage was not possible through WIN betting, therefore, there was nothing to be refuted.

I went on to clearly state," I think "tfm" is looking at this from the standpoint of ROI based on WIN BETS". This was my opinion based on my interpretation of his post. At the end of my post I again clearly state,"if I am reading "tfm" correctly, again, he is looking at WIN betting, not exotics, so I doubt that any of this is meaningful to "tfm" although it sounds very exciting". So I was offering an opinion based on how I read his post.

Further, with regard to William Benter, I clearly stated," Also, I do not know who William Benter is and at this point wasn't real interested in finding out". So that rules out any perceived interest on my part. You obviously got that wrong.

And further along in my post I stated,"this man is probably going after large exotic pools. Perhaps even playing in places OTHER THAN the US. And I don't mean Canada". So I obviously had a leg up on the Hong Kong situation, a fact that you disclosed in your most recent post. So it has now become clear that William Benter does NOT play in the US and DOES enjoy his abundant income from exotics.

With regard to Brohamer, I only stated what he and I talked about and that which I observed first hand. I am certainly not in any position to say that he was less than truthful with me.

I think we finally have a complete picture. Thank you for the additional information and insight.
