I just looked at the list, there are a couple of drivers you could have bet on that didn't even make the race. Not going to go through them individually. So field was more than 2 drivers.

Average. Ending had some decent racing.

I am not as big a fan of restricter plate racing. So I may be biased.

These odds were set before qualifying happened, so it was unknown who would even be in the race at that time.

I can see his gripe ... putting "The field" in any position rather than last implies it was added early than the individuals added later ... I don't give a rip because I didn't bet on it, but I'd consider paying back the "field" bettors their credits because of the confusing layout.

Confusing?
How?

If you're not familiar with betting, then don't.

Last 15 laps were very good. Last 1/4 of a lap, Newman had it won when Kyle Busch couldn't get up and push Tony.

Ok, I watched the end of the Indy 500 last year, and that was really exciting. This just seemed slow.

Also, it was pretty ironic that NASCAR promoted the hell out of Gibbs vs. Hendrick and Penske finished 1-2.

Just like they said on TV, the best car doesn't always (or typically) in a plate race. Kyle Busch had a great car but got a bad break when Burton got a bad restart.

The way its displayed had "Field (all others)" as like the 12th name in the list ... then a bunch of other names.

Other bets on CF open with a few bets and others get added later (prop bets and such) ... the layout could make someone think the "Field" bet meant everyone but the top 12 listed. Then you added odds for all of the rest of the racers later (even though you didnt)

That's how I took it when I first looked at it, and I can see how others may have been similarly confused.
