OPEN ON 1ST PALM SUNDAY, OTB RAKES IN $2M
New York City Off-Track Betting made history yesterday, taking bets on Palm Sunday. Since 1973, when Sunday racing was made legal in New York State, race tracks have been allowed to operate every Sunday except for Palm Sunday and Easter Sunday. While Aqueduct kept its doors shut, NYCOTB had its betting parlors open despite a letter from the New York State Racing and Wagering Board stating that it couldn't do so. "We're not a race track," NYCOTB president Ray Casey said. "OTB's business is a simulcasting business.
" Bettors responded by wagering an estimated $2 million yesterday on tracks from around the country, including Keeneland in Kentucky and Gulfstream Park in Florida. While in the past NYCOTB has respected the law and shut down on Palm Sunday, it took a chance this time"
because its business is down. "With the weather being the way it's been our handle has been off significantly," Casey said. "Our lawyers felt from their point of view that we could open (yesterday).
" The law says race tracks can't open. It doesn't mention OTBs. "I respect the Racing and Wagering Board and I have the utmost respect for chairman Michael Hoblock but I felt we're right on this one," Casey said. The NYSRWB didn't return phone calls yesterday but said on Saturday it would meet this week to discuss fines and penalties it can impose on NYCOTB. "This isn't personal
," Casey said. "I just didn't agree with the board's interpretation.
," Casey said. "I just didn't agree with the board's interpretation.
" Casey also said NYCOTB may open on Easter Sunday.

Actress Lori Loughlin and her husband reportedly don’t want to take any plea deal that would result in them serving prison time for allegedly paying bribes to get their daughters into college — a strategy that may result in them serving even more time behind bars.
The “Full House” star and her husband Mossimo Giannulli were indicted on conspiracy to commit mail and wire fraud, plus a new charge of conspiracy to commit money laundering on Tuesday, prosecutors said.
And while other celebs involved in the college admission scandal — including actress Felicity Huffman — have accepted their guilt, Loughlin and Giannulli are fighting the charges rather than accept a deal that includes prison time, People reported Tuesday.
“They weren’t ready to accept that. They’re really not seeing how serious this is,” a source familiar with the legal discussions told People.
“They decided to roll the dice, and it may have been a bad gamble. Now they’re in worse shape than before,” the source further told the celebrity news outlet.
Adam Citron, a former Westchester County prosecutor, told The Post that Loughlin and Giannulli’s window for leniency from a judge is closing.
Stop scratching on holidays
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.
Thanks for the help. The item’s below. I’d be happy to mail you a copy, if you give me a mailing address.

“The prosecution is not waiting,” Citron said. “The prosecution is moving forward and the window is closing.”
Citron added that the couple’s new indictment on money laundering charges makes it more likely they could face “significant jail time,” rather than just a few months.
A former federal prosecutor from the Southern District of New York pegged their possible sentence to about four years if they choose to plead guilty.
“We don’t know all the facts, but it will be significant,” Ellen Zimiles said.
“The fact that they used a nonprofit and lied about what they were doing — and that some of them had a discussion about lying — that makes it worse,” Zimiles added.
Loughlin and Giannulli allegedly paid a combined $500,000 to get daughters Olivia Jade and Isabella Rose into the University of Southern California as crew recruits — even though neither participated in the sport.
They even had the girls pose for “action” pictures on rowing machines, which were submitted to the school alongside phony athletic profiles.
