To say "takeout is irrelevant" indicates you do not understand math. The higher the takeout, the fewer "price" horses you will find that fit your odds criteria. Raise the takeout, and 4-1 horses that you would ordinarily bet now become 3-1 or even 2-1 on the board. Takeout affects every bettor's bottom line.
