Stop scratching on holidays
Published: June 1, 2012
Off Track Betting in New York State has been racing into a crisis called shrinking revenue. Some people have spitballed a solution: Don’t close on holidays.
New York State Racing Law bars racing on Christmas, Easter and Palm Sunday, and the state has ruled OTBs can’t handle action on those days, even though they could easily broadcast races from out of state.
“You should be able to bet whenever you want,” said Jackson Leeds, a Nassau OTB employee who makes an occasional bet. He added some irrefutable logic: “How is the business going to make money if you’re not open to take people’s bets?”
Elias Tsekerides, president of the Federation of Hellenic Societies of Greater New York, said OTB is open on Greek Orthodox Easter and Palm Sunday.
“I don’t want discrimination,” Tsekerides said. “They close for the Catholics, but open for the Greek Orthodox? It’s either open for all or not open.”
OTB officials have said they lose millions by closing on Palm Sunday alone, with tracks such as Gulfstream, Santa Anita, Turf Paradise and Hawthorne running.
One option: OTBs could just stay open and face the consequences. New York City OTB did just that back in 2003. The handle was about $1.5 million – and OTB was fined $5,000.
Easy money.

“As an investor myself, I am frightened seeing young men invest in crypto, NFTs, and other speculative financial investments which are more like Beanie Babies than stocks,” DeVille, 43, told The Post.
“Young men hate index funds because they’re boring, and they won’t listen to staid investment advisors. I am lucky enough to have a platform in porn where I can get them to learn about index funds, IRAs, and other smart investment strategies via my pornography.

“The only way to educate these men is through porn. They’re not going to listen to Vanguard, but they will listen to my t-ts!” she added.
The 30-minute film features DeVille as investment advice counselor “Suze Whoreman,” dressed in leather S & M gear, who punishes a young man for his irresponsible investment decisions.
“Have you ever considered a Roth IRA?” DeVille moans during one scene. “If you start investing now when you’re young. Oh God. You’re going to get so much by the time you retire.”
