Usually they are fine, but the log in and feed today are totally hosed, be warned if you bet there.

It\'s a little bit better, but still having problems. Bet early.

Yeah, its screwed for me right now. It took all my bets and deducted the money from my account, but when I try to \'recall todays bets\' to confirm... it times out.

DUe to video lag from them I got screwed out of Juanita in the 5th at CD yesterday and a timeout problem on a submitted bet screwed me out of a massive score in Evangeline\'s 7th last night.   Seriously thinking about setting up shop elsewhere.

I hate to say it, but I have other people here at my house making bets on TVG with zero problems. Twinspires did this same thing to me the year of Big Brown... so after having this happen I can safely say that I will be switching to TVG after today.

I know. I am not even sure if I am still live in the pick 3. Pretty sure I had the winner in the 9th, but can\'t remember for sure and can\'t recall my bets for today.

Twinspires just went from slow to non-responsive. Good thing I bet early

Caught with their pants down every Derby day.  Absolutely comical.

Not only did site freeze up and become unresponsive.....I cannot sign back in....this is totally disconcerting......I just want to see my wager log so I can see the wagers I placed and I cannot even do that.  Disgusting.  How do things juat keep getting worse?  Seems like everything is just degrading. Depressing.

Must be the millions of horseplayers who sign on Derby day, vs the 200 normally.

In the good old days, they use to hire extra tellers on the big days.  Somehow, the computer world can\'t figure that out.

That\'s what cloud computing is for. Spin up a bunch of extra servers for the flash crowd days. They should have load tested to at least expected peak need or more in advance.

I dont know what feeds the batch bettors use, but the \'retail\' feed is useless today.

NYRA was slow but not too bad. Just now was able to get a download of today\'s bets, after not being able to do that for a while.
