SAMMY COHEN OWNED AND RAN THE RACEBOOK. I ALMOST PUT HIM OUT OF BUSSINESS ON A LONG SHOT FUTURE BOOK BET ON THE KY. DERBY, BACK IN THE 60'S. CHURCHILL DOWNS WAS THE ONLY OTHER RACE BOOK ON THE STRIP IN THE OLD DAY'S. RESULTS CAME OVER THE WIRE. EXCEPT ON BIG RACES THE RECREATED THE RACE CALL USING THE WIRE RESULTS.THIS WAS BEFORE THE VEGAS CASINOS HAD SPORTS BOOK'S. THE GOOD OLD DAY'S FOR SURE.
