Horse betting can be found all around the world and it generates over $10 billion in bets. Most gamblers prefer the basic flat courses with 3/4- 2 mile long distances. The 2 minutes of racing is said to be the 2 most exciting minutes in sports. Gamblers throw around millions of dollars on horses who can make them a huge amount of profit within a very short amount of time. This is not just a 2 minute decision, however, as most veterans put a lot of time into looking at the horses, trainers, and owners history in previous events. This style of betting is very exciting, rewarding, and self-motivating as gamblers can "pat" themselves on the back when their knowledge and research gives them a huge pay day.
