I don't know. I just feel horse racing has fallen from grace when comes to what actually is appealing to the average online gambler nowadays.
When I think of horse racing the images that come to my mind are those of my grand father or my old uncle dressing up, picking up his money towards the closest betting please where they can partake in such activity. To me it would be much of a hassle just to wager money on something I don't personally find to be entertaining.

The current generation of gamblers seek for more immediate and fast paced experiences, I guess; I like dices and plinko, since they are game where I can choose how much risk I wanna take and hot fast I want to go, with horse racing I cannot be in control of many of those characteristics which make online games to be attractive to me.

It would take someone really passionate on horses to make the time to bet on races, it is easier to be passionate on football, baseball or even basketball, imo.

I'm just betting now and then on horse racing, from one penny at a time to some larger sums in case of a grade 1 event or festival.
I never understood horse racing. It always felt very risky to me although by any chance if you hit the winning horse then you win a lot. I like less hassle when I am in entertainment. My first choice is football. I place bets, watch football and sleep LOL

- Do you honestly think running a prediction game (run with my own funds) would attract genuine interest in this and not just shitposting quota?
Unless you try, you will never know. Good idea trying from your own funds if that works then you can look for sponsors.

No opinion for last two of your questions.

Let's keep this as simple as possible and let's not shitpost!

I see thousands of posts about football, a few hundred about other sports, and the rest are just almost non-existent. I'm a gambler myself but I stopped a while ago betting on soccer, all the Nxx in American sports and I'm just betting now and then on horse racing, from one penny at a time to some larger sums in case of a grade 1 event or festival.
But here it seems like there is little interest in this, is that because horse racing is just unpopular or is it because, well,.... the casinos that sponsor most signatures here are not promoting it? So no post quota to make?  Grin My old local gambling forum that covered this is also near death, I'm sitting in the sun 8 hours a day boring myself to death, so here comes feedback next part :

- Do you honestly think running a prediction game (run with my own funds) would attract genuine interest in this and not just shitposting quota?
- Would let's say 1-2 mbtc (per event, about one or two per month) be enough for people here to at least open a few links and take a look at what hoses are running and what their timeform is?
- Is anyone here actually gambling on horse racing?
