In my experience, rebates are a function of a) dollar volume bet, b) type of bet (higher rebates where the track take is higher), and c) the specific track. My post above was two-fold:
1. If your are betting through an ADW, use the one which maximizes your rebate depending on your dollar volume
2. I agree it may be hard to get a 6%+ rebate on win bets on a small bankroll. But if you are only losing 5% betting favorites, it should not take much handicapping skill to overcome that vig to be profitable, even before rebates.
As an aside, Ted and I had a conversation at SAR about the usefulness of using rolling DD and P3 prices to estimate win odds on the current race. As we know, he is overwhelmed right now trying to make the tote system in RDSS work, but be assured it will be included in the tote analysis sometime down the road.
