A. General
1. All permitted pari-mutuel wagering pools
shall be separately and independently calculated and distributed. Takeout shall
be deducted from each gross pool as stipulated by law. The remainder of the
monies in the pool shall constitute the net pool for distribution as payoff on
winning wagers.
2. For each
wagering pool, the amount wagered on the winning betting interest or betting
combinations is deducted from the net pool to determine the profit; the profit
is then divided by the amount wagered on the winning betting interest or
combinations, such quotient being the profit per dollar.
3. Either the standard or net price
calculation procedure may be used to calculate single commission pools, while
the net price calculation procedure must be used to calculate multi-commission
pools.
a. Standard Price Calculation
Procedure
SINGLE PRICE POOL (WIN POOL)
gross pool = sum of wagers on all betting interests -
refunds
takeout = gross pool x percent takeout
net pool = gross pool - takeout
profit = net pool - gross amount bet on winner
profit per dollar = profit / gross amount bet on
winner
$1 unbroken price = profit per dollar + $1
$1 broken price = $1 unbroken price rounded down to the break
point
total payout = $1 broken price x gross amount bet on
winner
total breakage = net pool - total payout
PROFIT SPLIT (PLACE POOL)
Profit is net pool less gross amount bet on all place
finishers. Finishers split profit 1/2 and 1/2 (place profit), then divide by
gross amount bet on each place finisher for two unique prices.
PROFIT SPLIT (SHOW POOL)
Profit is net pool less gross amount bet on all show
finishers. Finishers split profit 1/3 and 1/3 and 1/3 (show profit), then
divide by gross amount bet on each show finisher for three unique
prices.
b. Net Price Calculation
Procedure
SINGLE PRICE POOL (WIN POOL)
gross pool = sum of wagers on all betting interests -
refunds
takeout = gross pool x percent takeout
* for each source:
net pool = gross pool - takeout net bet on winner = gross
amount bet on winner x (1 - percent takeout)
total net pool = sum of all sources net pools
total net bet on
winner = sum of all sources net bet on winner
total profit = total net pool - total net bet on
winner
profit per dollar = total profit / total net bet on
winner
$1 unbroken base
price = profit per dollar + $1
* for each source:
$1 unbroken price = $1 unbroken base price x (1 - percent
takeout)
$1 broken price = $1 unbroken price rounded down to the break
point
total payout = $1 broken price x gross amount bet on
winner
total breakage = net pool - total payout
PROFIT SPLIT (PLACE POOL)
Total profit is the total net pool less the total net amount
bet on all place finishers. Finishers split total profit 1/2 and 1/2 (place
profit), then divide by total net amount bet on each place finisher for two
unique unbroken base prices.
PROFIT SPLIT (SHOW POOL)
Total profit is the total net pool less the total net amount
bet on all show finishers. Finishers split total profit 1/3 and 1/3 and 1/3
(show profit), then divide by total net amount bet on each show finisher for
three unique unbroken base prices.
4. If a profit split results in only one
covered winning betting interest or combinations, it shall be calculated the
same as a single price pool.
5.
Minimum payoffs and the method used for calculating breakage shall be
established by the Department.
6.
The individual pools outlined in these rules may be given alternative names by
each permittee, provided prior approval is obtained from the Department.
B. Win Pools
1. The amount wagered on the betting interest
which finishes first is deducted from the net pool, the balance remaining being
the profit; the profit is divided by the amount wagered on the betting interest
finishing first, such quotient being the profit per dollar wagered to Win on
that betting interest.
2. The net
Win pool shall be distributed as a single price pool to winning wagers in the
following precedence, based upon the official order of finish:
a. To those whose selection finished first;
but if there are no such wagers, then
b. To those whose selection finished second;
but if there are no such wagers, then
c. To those whose selection finished third;
but if there are no such wagers, then
d. The entire pool shall be refunded on Win
wagers for that contest.
3. If there is a dead heat for first
involving:
a. Contestants representing the
same betting interest, the Win pool shall be distributed as if no dead heat
occurred.
b. Contestants
representing two or more betting interests, the Win pool shall be distributed
as a profit split.

C. Place
Pools
1. The amounts wagered to Place on the
first two betting interests to finish are deducted from the net pool, the
balance remaining being the profit; the profit is divided into two equal
portions, one being assigned to each winning betting interest and divided by
the amount wagered to Place on that betting interest, the resulting quotient is
the profit per dollar wagered to Place on that betting interest.
2. The net Place pool shall be distributed to
winning wagers in the following precedence, based upon the official order of
finish:
a. If contestants of a coupled entry
or mutuel field finished in the first two places, as a single price pool to
those who selected the coupled entry or mutuel field; otherwise
b. As a profit split to those whose selection
is included within the first two finishers; but if there are no such wagers on
one of those two finishers, then
c.
As a single price pool to those who selected the one covered betting interest
included within the first two finishers; but if there are no such wagers,
then
d. As a single price pool to
those who selected the third-place finisher, but if there are no such wagers,
then
e. The entire pool shall be
refunded on Place wagers for that contest.
3. If there is a dead heat for first
involving:
a. Contestants representing the
same betting interest, the Place pool shall be distributed as a single price
pool.
b. Contestants representing
two or more betting interests, the Place pool shall be distributed as a profit
split.
4. If there is a
dead heat for second involving:
a. Contestants
representing the same betting interest, the Place pool shall be distributed as
if no dead heat occurred.
b.
Contestants representing two or more betting interests, the Place pool is
divided with half of the profit distributed to Place wagers on the betting
interest finishing first and the remainder is distributed equally amongst Place
wagers on those betting interests involved in the dead heat for second.

D. Show
Pools
1. The amounts wagered to Show on the
first three betting interests to finish are deducted from the net pool, the
balance remaining being the profit; the profit is divided into three equal
portions, one being assigned to each winning betting interest and divided by
the amount wagered to Show on that betting interest, the resulting quotient
being the profit per dollar wagered to Show on that betting interest.
2. The net Show pool shall be distributed to
winning wagers in the following precedence, based upon the official order of
finish:
a. If contestants of a coupled entry
or mutuel field finished in the first three places, as a single price pool to
those who selected the coupled entry or mutuel field; otherwise
b. If contestants of a coupled entry or
mutuel field finished as two of the first three finishers, the profit is
divided with two-thirds distributed to those who selected the coupled entry or
mutuel field and one-third distributed to those who selected the other betting
interest included within the first three finishers; otherwise
c. As a profit split to those whose selection
is included within the first three finishers; but if there are no such wagers
on one of those three finishers, then
d. As a profit split to those who selected
one of the two covered betting interests included within the first three
finishers; but if there are no such wagers on two of those three finishers,
then
e. As a single price pool to
those who selected the one covered betting interest included within the first
three finishers; but if there are no such wagers, then
f. As a single price pool to those who
selected the fourth-place finisher; but if there are no such wagers,
then
g. The entire pool shall be
refunded on Show wagers for that contest.
3. If there is a dead heat for first
involving:
a. Two contestants representing
the same betting interest, the profit is divided with 2/3rds distributed to
those who selected the first-place finishers and one-third distributed to those
who selected the betting interest finishing third.
b. Three contestants representing a single
betting interest, the Show pool shall be distributed as a single price
pool.
c. Contestants representing
two or more betting interests, the Show pool shall be distributed as a profit
split.
4. If there is a
dead heat for second involving:
a. Contestants
representing the same betting interest, the profit is divided with one-third
distributed to those who selected the betting interest finishing first and
two-thirds distributed to those who selected the second-place
finishers.
b. Contestants
representing two betting interests, the Show pool shall be distributed as a
profit split.
c. Contestants

E. Double Pools
1. The Double requires selection of the
first-place finisher in each of two specified contests.
2. The net Double pool shall be distributed
to winning wagers in the following precedence, based upon the official order of
finish:
a. As a single price pool to those
whose selection finished first in each of the two contests; but if there are no
such wagers, then
b. As a profit
split to those who selected the first-place finisher in either of the two
contests; but if there are no such wagers, then
c. As a single price pool to those who
selected the one covered first-place finisher in either contest; but if there
are no such wagers, then
d. As a
single price pool to those whose selection finished second in each of the two
contests; but if there are no such wagers, then
e. The entire pool shall be refunded on
Double wagers for those contests.
3. If there is a dead heat for first in
either of the two contests involving:
a.
Contestants representing the same betting interest, the Double pool shall be
distributed as if no dead heat occurred.
b. Contestants representing two or more
betting interests, the Double pool shall be distributed as a profit split if
there is more than one covered winning combination.
4. Should a betting interest in the
first-half of the Double be scratched prior to the first Double contest being
declared official, all money wagered on combinations including the scratched
betting interest shall be deducted from the Double pool and refunded.
5. Should a betting interest in the
second-half of the Double be scratched prior to the close of wagering on the
first Double contest, all money wagered on combinations including the scratched
betting interest shall be deducted from the Double pool and refunded.
6. Should a betting interest in the
second-half of the Double be scratched after the close of wagering on the first
Double contest, all wagers combining the winner of the first contest with the
scratched betting interest in the second contest shall be allocated a
consolation payoff. In calculating the consolation payoff the net Double pool
shall be divided by the total amount wagered on the winner of the first contest
and an unbroken consolation price obtained. The broken consolation price is
multiplied by the dollar value of wagers on the winner of the first contest
combined with the scratched betting interest to obtain the consolation payoff.
Breakage is not declared in this calculation. The consolation payoff is
deducted from the net Double pool before calculation and distribution of the
winning Double payoff. Dead heats including separate betting interests in the
first contest shall result in a consolation payoff calculated as a profit
split.
7. If either of the Double
contests are cancelled prior to the first Double contest, or the first Double
contest is declared "no contest," the entire Double pool shall be refunded on
Double wagers for those contests.
8. If the second Double contest is cancelled
or declared "no contest" after the conclusion of the first Double contest, the
net Double pool shall be distributed as a single price pool to wagers selecting
the winner of the first Double contest. In the event of a dead heat involving

representing two or more betting interests, the Pick 3 pool shall be
distributed as a single price pool with each winning wager receiving an equal
share of the profit.
4.
Should a betting interest in any of the three Pick 3 contests be scratched, the
actual favorite, as evidenced by total amounts wagered in the Win pool at the
close of wagering on that contest, shall be substituted for the scratched
betting interest for all purposes, including pool calculations. In the event
that the Win pool total for two or more favorites is identical, the substitute
selection shall be the betting interest with the lowest program number. The
totalisator shall produce reports showing each of the wagering combinations
with substituted betting interests which became winners as a result of the
substitution, in addition to the normal winning combination.

G.
Pick (n) Pools
1. The Pick (n) requires
selection of the first-place finisher in each of a designated number of
contests. The permittee must obtain written approval from the Department
concerning the scheduling of Pick (n) contests, the designation of one of the
methods prescribed in subsection (G)(2), and the amount of any cap to be set on
the carryover. Any changes to the approved Pick (n) format require prior
approval from the Department.
2.
The Pick (n) pool shall be apportioned under one of the following methods:
a. Method 1, Pick (n) with Carryover: The net
Pick (n) pool and carryover, if any, shall be distributed as a single price
pool to those who selected the first-place finisher in each of the Pick (n)
contests, based upon the official order of finish. If there are no such wagers,
then a designated percentage of the net pool shall be distributed as a single
price pool to those who selected the first-place finisher in the greatest
number of Pick (n) contests; and the remainder shall be added to the
carryover.
b. Method 2, Pick (n)
with Minor Pool and Carryover: The major share of the net Pick (n) pool and the
carryover, if any, shall be distributed to those who selected the first-place
finisher in each of the Pick (n) contests, based upon the official order of
finish. The minor share of the net Pick (n) pool shall be distributed to those
who selected the first-place finisher in the second greatest number of Pick (n)
contests, based upon the official order of finish. If there are no wagers
selecting the first-place finisher of all Pick (n) contests, the minor share of
the net Pick (n) pool shall be distributed as a single price pool to those who
selected the first-place finisher in the greatest number of Pick (n) contests;
and the major share shall be added to the carryover.
c. Method 3, Pick (n) with No Minor Pool and
No Carryover: The net Pick (n) pool shall be distributed as the single price
pool to those who selected the first-place finisher in the greatest number of
Pick (n) contests, based upon the official order of finish. If there are no
winning wagers, the pool is refunded.
d. Method 4, Pick (n) with Minor Pool and No
Carryover: The major share of the net Pick (n) pool shall be distributed to
those who selected the first-place finisher in the greatest number of Pick (n)
contests, based upon the official order of finish. The minor share of the net
Pick (n) pool shall be distributed to those who selected the first-place
finisher in the second greatest number of Pick (n) contests, based upon the
official order of finish. If there are no wagers selecting the first-place
finisher in a second greatest number of Pick (n) contests, the minor share of
the net Pick (n) pool shall be combined with the major share for distribution
as a single price pool to those who selected the first-place finisher in the
greatest number of Pick (n) contests. If the greatest number of first-place
finishers selected is 1, the major and minor shares are combined for
distribution as a single price pool. If there are no winning wagers, the pool
is refunded.
e. Method 5, Pick (n)
with Minor Pool and No Carryover: The major share of net Pick (n) pool shall be
distributed to those who selected the first-place finisher in each of the Pick
(n) contests, based upon the official order of finish. The minor share of the
net Pick (n) pool shall be distributed to those who selected the first-place
finisher in the second greatest number of Pick (n) contests, based upon the
official order of finish. If there are no wagers selecting the first-place
finisher in all Pick (n) contests, the entire net Pick (n) pool shall be
distributed as a single pool to those who selected the first-place finisher in
the greatest number of Pick (n) contests. If there are no wagers selecting the
first-place finisher in a second greatest number of Pick (n) contests, the
minor share of the net Pick (n) pool shall be combined with the major share for
distribution as a single price pool to those who selected the first-place
finisher in each of the Pick (n) contests. If there are no winning wagers, the
pool is refunded.
f.
Method
6, Pick (n) with Minor Pool and Carryover with "Unique Winning Ticket"
Provision (referred to as the "Unique Pick" for purposes of this rule
only): The Unique Pick net pool and carryover, if any, shall be
distributed to the sole holder of a unique winning ticket that selected the
first-place finisher in every one of the Unique Pick contests, based upon the
official order of finish. If there is no sole holder of a unique winning ticket
selecting the first-place finisher in every one of the Unique Pick contests, or
if there are no wagers selecting the first-place finisher of all Unique Pick
contests, the minor share of the Unique Pick net pool shall be distributed as a
single price pool to those who selected the first-place finisher in the
greatest number of Unique Pick contests, and the major share shall be added to
the carryover. Where there is no correct selection of the first-place finisher
in at least one of the Unique Pick contests, based upon the official order of
finish, the day's net pool shall be refunded and the previous carryover pool
amount, if any, shall be carried over to the next scheduled corresponding pool.
i. Request for Mandatory Distribution. In
lieu of the event of a sole jackpot winner, the permittee may request
permission to distribute the Unique Pick jackpot pursuant to subsections (G)(8)
and (9) of this rule.
ii. Unique
Pick Jackpot Identification. Permittees must clearly identify one of the
following methods that will be relied upon for determining the existence of a
Unique Pick winning ticket. The first method is when there is one and only one
winning ticket that correctly selected the first place finisher in each of the
Unique Pick contests, based upon the official order of finish, to be verified
by the unique serial number assigned by the tote company that issued the
winning ticket. The second method is when the total amount wagered on one and
only one winning combination selecting the first-place finisher in each of the
Unique Pick contests, based up on the official order of finish, is equal to no
more than the minimum allowable wager.
3. If there is a dead heat for first in any
of the Pick (n) contests involving:
a.
Contestants representing the same betting interest, the Pick (n) pool shall be
distributed as if no dead heat occurred.
b. Contestants representing two or more
betting interests, the Pick (n) pool shall be distributed as a single price
pool with each winning wager receiving an equal share of the profit.
4. Should a betting interest in
any of the Pick (n) contests be scratched, the actual favorite, as evidenced by
total amounts wagered in the Win pool at the host association for the contest
at the close of wagering on that contest, shall be substituted for the
scratched betting interest for all purposes, including pool calculations. In
the event that the Win pool total for two or more favorites is identical, the
substitute selection shall be the betting interest with the lowest program
number. The totalisator shall produce reports showing each of the wagering
combinations with substituted betting interests which became winners as a
result of the substitution, in addition to the normal winning
combination.
5. The Pick (n) pool
shall be cancelled and all Pick (n) wagers for the individual performance shall
be refunded if:
a. At least two contests
included as part of a Pick 3 are cancelled or declared "no contest."
b. At least three contests included as part
of a Pick 4, Pick 5, or Pick 6 are cancelled or declared "no
contest."
c. At least four contests
included as part of a Pick 7, Pick 8, or Pick 9 are cancelled or declared "no
contest."
d. At least five contests
included as part of a Pick 10 are cancelled or declared "no contest."
6. If at least one contest
included as part of a Pick (n) is cancelled or declared "no contest," but not
more than the number specified in subsection (G)(5) of this rule, the net pool
shall be distributed as a single price pool to those whose selection finished
first in the greatest number of Pick (n) contests for that performance. Such
distribution shall include the portion ordinarily retained for the Pick (n)
carryover but not the carryover from previous performances.
7. The Pick (n) carryover may be capped at a
designated level approved by the Department so that if, at the close of any
performance, the amount in the Pick (n) carryover equals or exceeds the
designated cap, the Pick (n) carryover will be frozen until it is won or
distributed under other provisions of this rule. After the Pick (n) carryover
is frozen, 100% of the net pool, part of which ordinarily would be added to the
Pick (n) carryover, shall be distributed to those whose selection finished
first in the greatest number of Pick (n) contests for that
performance.
8. A written request
for permission to distribute the Pick (n) carryover on a specific performance
may be submitted to the Department. The request shall contain justification for
the distribution, an explanation of the benefit to be derived, and the intended
date and performance for the distribution.
9. Should the Pick (n) carryover be
designated for distribution on the final day of the meeting or on another
specified date on which there are no wagers selecting the first-place finisher
in each of the Pick (n) contests, the entire pool shall be distributed as a
single price pool to those whose selection finished first in the greatest
number of Pick (n) contests. The Pick (n) carryover shall be designated for
distribution on a specified date and performance only under the following
circumstances:
a. Upon written approval from
the Department as provided in subsection (G)(8) of this rule.
b. Upon written approval from the Department
when there is a change in the carryover cap, a change from one type of Pick (n)
wagering to another, or when the Pick (n) is discontinued.
c. On the closing performance of the meet or
split meet.
10. If, for
any reason, the Pick (n) carryover must be held over to the corresponding Pick
(n) pool of a subsequent meet, the carryover shall be deposited in an
interest-bearing account approved by the Department. The Pick (n) carryover
plus accrued interest shall then be added to the net Pick (n) pool of the
following meet on a date and performance so designated by the
Department.
11. With the written
approval of the Department, the permittee may contribute to the Pick (n)
carryover a sum of money up to the amount of any designated cap.
12. Providing information to any person
regarding covered combinations, amounts wagered on specific combinations,
number of tickets sold, or number of live tickets remaining is strictly
prohibited. This shall not prohibit necessary communication between totalisator
and pari-mutuel department employees for processing of pool data.
13. The permittee may suspend previously
approved Pick (n) wagering with the prior approval of the Department. Any
carryover shall be held until the suspended Pick (n) wagering is reinstated. A
permittee may request approval of a Pick (n) wager or separate wagering pool
for specific performances.

price pool with a winning wager including the betting interest which finished
first or any betting interest involved in a dead heat for second.
5. Should a betting interest in
any Place Pick (n) contest be scratched, the actual favorite, as evidenced by
total amounts wagered in the Win pool at the host association for the contest
at the close of wagering on that contest, shall be substituted for the
scratched betting interest for all purposes, including pool calculations. In
the event that the Win pool total for two or more favorites is identical, the
substitute selection shall be the betting interest with the lowest program
number. The totalisator shall produce reports showing each of the wagering
combinations with substituted betting interests which became winners as a
result of the substitution, in addition to the normal winning
combination.
6. The Place Pick (n)
pool shall be cancelled and all Place Pick (n) wagers for the individual
performance shall be refunded if:
a. At least
two contests included as part of a Place Pick 3 are cancelled or declared "no

selection finished first or second in the greatest number of Place Pick (n)
contests for that performance. Such distribution shall include the portion
ordinarily retained for the Place Pick (n) carryover but not the carryover from
previous performances.
8. The Place
Pick (n) carryover may be capped at a designated level approved by the
Department so that if, at the close of any performance, the amount in the Place
Pick (n) carryover equals or exceeds the designated cap, the Place Pick (n)
carryover will be frozen until it is won or distributed under other provisions
of this rule. After the Place Pick (n) carryover is frozen, 100% of the net
pool, part of which ordinarily would be added to the Place Pick (n) carryover,
shall be distributed to those whose selection finished first or second in the
greatest number of Place Pick (n) contests for that performance.
9. A written request for permission to
distribute the Place Pick (n) carryover on a specific performance may be
submitted to the Department. The request must contain justification for the
distribution, an explanation of the benefit to be derived, and the intended
date and performance for the distribution.
10. Should the Place Pick (n) carryover be
designated for distribution on a specified date and performance in which there
are no wagers selecting the first- or second-place finisher in each of the
Place Pick (n) contests, the entire pool shall be distributed as a single price
pool to those whose selection finished first or second in the greatest number
of Place Pick (n) contests. The Place Pick (n) carryover shall be designated
for distribution on a specified date and performance under any of the following
circumstances:
a. Upon written approval from
the Department as provided in subsection (H)(9) of this rule.
b. Upon written approval from the Department
when there is a change in the carryover cap, a change from one type of Place

discontinued.
c. On the closing
performance of the meet or split meet.
11. If, for any reason, the Place Pick (n)
carryover must be held over to the corresponding Place Pick (n) pool of a
subsequent meet, the carryover shall be deposited in an interest-bearing
account approved by the Department. The Place Pick (n) carryover plus accrued
interest shall then be added to the net Place Pick (n) pool of the following
meet on a date and performance so designated by the Department.
12. With the written approval of the
Department, the permittee may contribute to the Place Pick (n) carryover a sum
of money up to the amount of any designated cap.
13. Providing information to any person
regarding covered combinations, amounts wagered on specific combinations,
number of tickets sold, or number of live tickets remaining is strictly
prohibited. This shall not prohibit necessary communication between totalisator
and pari-mutuel department employees for processing of pool data.
14. The permittee may suspend previously
approved Place Pick (n) wagering with the prior approval of the Department. Any
carryover shall be held until the suspended Place Pick (n) wagering is
reinstated. A permittee may request approval of a Place Pick (n) wager or
separate wagering pool for specific performances.

selected the first two finishers in each of the two Quinella Double contests;
but if there are no such wagers, then
c. As a profit split to those who selected

half of the Quinella Double be scratched after the close of wagering on the
first Quinella Double contest, all wagers combining the winning combination in

in the second contest shall be allocated a consolation payoff. In calculating
the consolation payoff, the net Quinella Double pool shall be divided by the
total amount wagered on the winning combination in the first contest and an
unbroken consolation price obtained. The unbroken consolation price is
multiplied by the dollar value of wagers on the winning combination in the
first contest combined with a combination including the scratched betting
interest in the second contest to obtain the consolation payoff. Breakage is
not utilized in this calculation. The consolation payoff is deducted from the

split.

Twin-Trifecta carryover.
10. If
there is a dead heat or multiple dead heats in either the first- or second-half
of the Twin Trifecta, all Twin Trifecta wagers selecting the correct order of

13. The
Twin-Trifecta carryover may be capped at a designated level approved by the
Department so that if, at the close of any performance, the amount in the Twin-
Trifecta carryover equals or exceeds the designated cap, the Twin-Trifecta
carryover will be frozen until it is won or distributed under other provisions
of this rule. After the Twin Trifecta carryover is frozen, 100% of the net Twin
Trifecta pool for each individual contest shall be distributed to carryover
winners of the first half of the Twin Trifecta pool.
14. A written request for permission to
distribute the Twin-Trifecta carryover on a specific performance may be
submitted to the Department. The request must contain justification for the
distribution, an explanation of the benefit to be derived, and the intended
date and performance for the distribution.
15. Should the Twin-Trifecta carryover be
designated for distribution on a specified date and performance, the following
precedence will be followed in determining winning tickets for the second half
of the Twin Trifecta after completion of the first half of the Twin Trifecta:
a. As a single price pool to those whose
combination finished in correct sequence as the first three betting interests;
but if there are no such wagers, then
b. As a single price pool to those whose
combination included, in correct sequence, the first two betting interests; but
if there are no such wagers, then
c. As a single price pool to those whose
combination correctly selected the first-place betting interest only; but if
there are no such wagers, then
d.
As a single price pool to holders of valid exchange tickets.
e. As a single price pool to holders of
outstanding first-half winning tickets.
16. Contrary to subsection (O)(4) of the Twin
Trifecta rules, during a performance designated to distribute the Twin-Trifecta
carryover, exchange tickets will be issued for those combinations selecting the
greatest number of betting interests in their correct order of finish for the
first half of the Twin Trifecta. If there are no wagers correctly selecting the
first-, second-, and third-place finishers, in their exact order, then exchange
tickets shall be issued for combinations correctly selecting the first- and
second-place betting interests. If there are no wagers correctly selecting the
first- and second-place finishers, in their exact order, then exchange tickets
shall be issued for combinations correctly selecting the first-place betting
interest only. If there are no wagers selecting the first-place betting
interest only in the first half of the Twin Trifecta, all first-half tickets
will become winners and will receive 100% of that day's net Twin Trifecta pool
and any existing Twin-Trifecta carryover as a single price pool.
17. The Twin-Trifecta carryover shall be
designated for distribution on a specified date and performance only under the
following circumstances:
a. Upon written
approval from the Department as provided in subsection (O)(15) of the Twin
Trifecta rules.
b. Upon written
approval from the Department when there is a change in the carryover cap or
when the Twin Trifecta is discontinued.
c. On the closing performance of the meet or
split meet.
18. If, for
any reason, the Twin-Trifecta carryover must be held over to the corresponding
Twin Trifecta pool of a subsequent meet, the carryover shall be deposited in an
interest-bearing account approved by the Department. The Twin-Trifecta
carryover plus accrued interest shall then be added to the second-half Twin
Trifecta pool of the following meet on a date and performance so designated by
the Department.
19. Providing
information to any person regarding covered combinations, amounts wagered on
specific combinations, number of tickets sold, or number of valid exchange
tickets is prohibited. This shall not prohibit necessary communication between
totalisator and pari-mutuel department employees for processing of pool
data.
20. The permittee must obtain
written approval from the Department concerning the scheduling of Twin Trifecta
contests, the percentages of the net pool added to the first-half pool and
second-half pool, and the amount of any cap to be set on the carryover. Any
changes to the approved Twin Trifecta format require prior approval from the
Department.
P.
Tri-Superfecta Pools
1. The Tri-Superfecta
requires selection of the first three finishers, in their exact order, in the
first of two designated contests and the first four finishers, in exact order,
in the second of the two designated contests. Each winning ticket for the first
Tri-Superfecta contest must be exchanged for a free ticket on the second
Tri-Superfecta contest in order to remain eligible for the second-half
Tri-Superfecta pool. Such tickets may be exchanged only at attended ticket
windows prior to the second Tri-Superfecta contest. Winning first-half
Tri-Superfecta tickets will receive both an exchange and a monetary payoff.
Both of the designated Tri-Superfecta contests shall be included in only one
Tri-Superfecta pool.
2. After
wagering closes for the first-half of the Tri-Superfecta and commissions have
been deducted from the pool, the net pool shall then be divided into two
separate pools: the first-half Tri-Superfecta pool and the second-half
Tri-Superfecta pool.
3. In the
first Tri-Superfecta contest only, winning tickets shall be determined using
the following precedence, based upon the official order of finish for the first
Tri-Superfecta contest:
a. As a single price
pool to those whose combination finished in correct sequence as the first three
betting interests; but if there are no such wagers, then
b. As a single price pool to those whose
combination included, in correct sequence, the first two betting interests; but
if there are no such wagers, then
c. As a single price pool to those whose
combination correctly selected the first-place betting interest only; but if
there are no such wagers, then
d.
The entire Tri-Superfecta pool shall be refunded on Tri-Superfecta for that
contest and the second half shall be cancelled.
4. If no first-half Tri-Superfecta ticket
selects the first three finishers of that contest in exact order, winning
ticket holders shall not receive any exchange tickets for the second-half
Tri-Superfecta pool. In such case, the second-half Tri-Superfecta pool shall be
retained and added to any existing Tri-Superfecta carryover pool.
5. Winning tickets from the first half of the
Tri-Superfecta shall be exchanged for tickets selecting the first four
finishers of the second-half of the Tri-Superfecta. The second-half
Tri-Superfecta pool shall be distributed to winning wagers in the following
precedence, based upon the official order of finish for the second
Tri-Superfecta contest:
a. As a single price
pool, including any existing carryover monies, to those whose combination
finished in correct sequence as the first four betting interests; but if there
are no such tickets, then
b. The
entire second-half Tri-Superfecta pool for that contest shall be added to any
existing carryover monies and retained for the corresponding second-half
Tri-Superfecta pool of the next performance.
6. If a winning first-half Tri-Superfecta
ticket is not presented for cashing and exchange prior to the second-half
Tri-Superfecta contest, the ticket holder may still collect the monetary value
associated with the first-half Tri-Superfecta pool but forfeits all rights to
any distribution of the second-half Tri-Superfecta pool.
7. Coupled entries and mutuel fields shall be
prohibited in Tri-Superfecta contests.
8. Should a betting interest in the
first-half of the Tri-Superfecta be scratched, those Tri-Superfecta tickets
including the scratched betting interest shall be refunded.
9. Should a betting interest in the
second-half of the Tri-Superfecta be scratched, an announcement concerning the
scratch shall be made and a reasonable amount of time shall be provided for
exchange of tickets that include the scratched betting interest. If tickets
have not been exchanged prior to the close of betting for the second
Tri-Superfecta contest, the ticket holder forfeits all rights to the
second-half Tri-Superfecta pool.
10. If, due to a late scratch, the number of
betting interests in the second-half of the Tri-Superfecta is reduced to fewer
than the minimum, all exchange tickets and outstanding first-half winning
tickets shall be entitled to the second-half Tri-Superfecta pool for that
contest as a single price pool, but not the Tri-Superfecta carryover.
11. If there is a dead heat or multiple dead
heats in either the first or second half of the Tri-Superfecta, all
Tri-Superfecta tickets selecting the correct order of finish, counting a
betting interest involved in a dead heat as finishing in any dead-heated
position, shall be a winner. In the case of a dead heat occurring in
a. The first-half of the Tri-Superfecta, the
payoff shall be calculated as a profit split.
b. The second-half of the Tri-Superfecta, the
payoff shall be calculated as a single price pool.
12. If either of the Tri-Superfecta contests
are cancelled prior to the first Tri-Superfecta contest, or the first
Tri-Superfecta contest is declared "no contest," the entire Tri-Superfecta pool
shall be refunded on Tri-Superfecta wagers for that contest and the second half
shall be cancelled.
13. If the
second-half Tri-Superfecta contest is cancelled or declared "no contest," all
exchange tickets and outstanding first-half winning Tri-Superfecta tickets
shall be entitled to the net Tri-Superfecta pool for that contest as a single
price pool, but not the Tri-Superfecta carryover. If no there are no such
tickets, the net Tri-Superfecta pool shall be distributed as described in
subsection (P)(3) of the Tri-Superfecta rules.
14. The Tri-Superfecta carryover may be
capped at a designated level approved by the Department so that if, at the
close of any performance, the amount in the Tri-Superfecta carryover equals or
exceeds the designated cap, the Tri-Superfecta carryover will be frozen until
it is won or distributed under other provisions of this rule. After the
second-half Tri-Superfecta carryover is frozen, 100% of the net Tri-Superfecta
pool for each individual contest shall be distributed to winners of the
first-half of the Tri-Superfecta pool.
15. A written request for permission to
distribute the Tri-Superfecta carryover on a specific performance may be
submitted to the Department. The request must contain justification for the
distribution, an explanation of the benefit to be derived, and the intended
date and performance for the distribution.
16. Should the Tri-Superfecta carryover be
designated for distribution on a specified date and performance, the following
precedence will be followed in determining winning tickets for the second half
of the Tri-Superfecta after completion of the first half of the Tri-Superfecta:
a. As a single price pool to those whose
combination finished in correct sequence as the first four betting interests;
but if there are no such wagers, then
b. As a single price pool to those whose
combination included, in correct sequence, the first three betting interests;
but if there are no such wagers, then
c. As a single price pool to those whose
combination included, in correct sequence, the first two betting interests; but
if there are no such wagers, then
d. As a single price pool to those whose
combination included, in correct sequence, the first-place betting interest
only; but if there are no such wagers, then
e. As a single price pool to holders of valid
exchange tickets.
f. As a single
price pool to holders of outstanding first-half winning tickets.
17. Contrary to subsection (P)(4)
of the Tri-Superfecta rules, during a performance designated to distribute the
Tri-Superfecta carryover, exchange tickets will be issued for those
combinations selecting the greatest number of betting interests in their
correct order of finish for the first-half of the Tri-Superfecta. If there are
no wagers correctly selecting the first-, second-, and third-place finishers,
in their exact order, then exchange tickets shall be issued for combinations
correctly selecting the first- and second-place betting interests. If there are
no wagers correctly selecting the first- and second-place finishers, in their
exact order, then exchange tickets shall be issued for combinations correctly
selecting the first-place betting interest only. If there are no wagers
selecting the first-place betting interest only in the first half of the
Tri-Superfecta, all first-half tickets will become winners and will receive
100% of that day's net Tri-Superfecta pool and any existing Tri-Superfecta
carryover as a single price pool.
18. The Tri-Superfecta carryover shall be
designated for distribution on a specified date and performance only under the
following circumstances:
a. Upon written
approval from the Department as provided in subsection (P)(15) of the
Tri-Superfecta rules.
b. Upon
written approval from the Department when there is a change in the carryover
cap or when the Tri-Superfecta is discontinued.
c. On the closing performance of the meet or
split meet.
19. If, for
any reason, the Tri-Superfecta carryover must be held over to the corresponding
Tri-Superfecta pool of a subsequent meet, the carryover shall be deposited in
an interest-bearing account approved by the Department. The Tri-Superfecta
carryover plus accrued interest shall then be added to the second-half
Tri-Superfecta pool of the following meet on a date and performance so
designated by the Department.
20.
Providing information to any person regarding covered combinations, amounts
wagered on specific combinations, number of tickets sold, or number of valid
exchange tickets is prohibited. This shall not prohibit necessary communication
between totalisator and pari-mutuel department employees for processing of pool
data.
21. The permittee must obtain
written approval from the Department concerning the scheduling of
Tri-Superfecta contests, the percentages of the net pool added to the
first-half pool and second-half pool, and the amount of any cap to be set on
the carryover. Any changes to the approved Tri-Superfecta format require prior
approval from the Department.
Q. Twin Superfecta Pools
1. The Twin Superfecta requires selection of
the first four finishers, in their exact order, in each of two designated
contests. Each winning ticket for the first Twin Superfecta contest must be
exchanged for a free ticket on the second Twin Superfecta contest in order to
remain eligible for the second-half Twin Superfecta pool. Such tickets may be
exchanged only at attended ticket windows prior to the second Twin Superfecta
contest. Winning first-half Twin Superfecta tickets will receive both an
exchange and a monetary payoff. Both of the designated Twin Superfecta contests
shall be included in only one Twin Superfecta pool.
2. After wagering closes for the first half
of the Twin Superfecta and commissions have been deducted from the pool, the
net pool shall then be divided into two separate pools: the first-half Twin
Superfecta pool and the second-half Twin Superfecta pool.
3. In the first Twin Superfecta contest only,
winning wagers shall be determined using the following precedence, based upon
the official order of finish for the first Twin Superfecta contest:

combination correctly selected the first-place betting interest only; but if
there are no such wagers, then
e.
The entire Twin Superfecta pool shall be refunded on Twin Superfecta wagers for
that contest and the second half shall be cancelled.
4. If no first-half Twin Superfecta ticket
selects the first four finishers of that contest in exact order, winning ticket
holders shall not receive any exchange tickets for the second-half Twin
Superfecta pool. In such case, the second-half Twin Superfecta pool shall be
retained and added to any existing Twin Superfecta carryover pool.
5. Winning tickets from the first half of the
Twin Superfecta shall be exchanged for tickets selecting the first four
finishers of the second half of the Twin Superfecta. The second-half Twin
Superfecta pool shall be distributed to winning wagers in the following
precedence, based upon the official order of finish for the second Twin
Superfecta contest:
a. As a single price
pool, including any existing carryover monies, to those whose combination
finished in correct sequence as the first four betting interests; but if there
are no such tickets, then
b. The
entire second-half Twin Trifecta pool for that contest shall be added to any
existing carryover monies and retained for the corresponding second-half Twin
Superfecta pool of the next performance.
6. If a winning first-half Twin Superfecta

Superfecta contest, the ticket holder may still collect the monetary value
associated with the first-half Twin Superfecta pool but forfeits all rights to
any distribution of the second-half Twin Trifecta pool.
7. Coupled entries and mutuel fields shall be
prohibited in Twin Superfecta contests.
8. Should a betting interest in the first
half of the Twin Superfecta be scratched, those Twin Superfecta tickets
including the scratched betting interest shall be refunded.
9. Should a betting interest in the second
half of the Twin Superfecta be scratched, an announcement concerning the
scratch shall be made and a reasonable amount of time shall be provided for
exchange of tickets that include the scratched betting interest. If tickets
have not been exchanged prior to the close of betting for the second Twin
Superfecta contest, the ticket holder forfeits all rights to the second-half
Twin Superfecta pool.
10. If, due
to a late scratch, the number of betting interests in the second-half of the
Twin Superfecta is reduced to fewer than the minimum, all exchange tickets and
outstanding first-half winning tickets shall be entitled to the second-half
Twin Superfecta pool for that contest as a single price pool but not the Twin
Superfecta carryover.
11. If there
is a dead heat or multiple dead heats in either the first- or second-half of
the Twin Superfecta, all Twin Superfecta tickets selecting the correct order of
finish, counting a betting interest involved in a dead heat as finishing in any
dead-heated position, shall be a winner. In the case of a dead heat occurring
in:
a. The first half of the Twin Superfecta,
the payoff shall be calculated as a profit split.
b. The second half of the Twin Superfecta,
the payoff shall be calculated as a single price pool.

is cancelled prior to the first Twin Superfecta contest, or the first Twin
Superfecta contest is declared "no contest," the entire Twin Superfecta pool
shall be refunded on Twin Superfecta wagers for that contest and the second
half shall be cancelled.
13. If the
second-half Twin Superfecta contest is cancelled or declared "no contest," all
exchange tickets and outstanding first-half winning Twin Superfecta tickets
shall be entitled to the net Twin Superfecta pool for that contest as a single
price pool but not the Twin Superfecta carryover. If there are no such tickets,
the net Twin Superfecta pool shall be distributed as described in subsection
(Q)(3) of the Twin Superfecta rules.
14. The Twin Superfecta carryover may be
capped at a designated level approved by the Department so that if, at the
close of any performance, the amount in the Twin Superfecta carryover equals or
exceeds the designated cap, the Twin Superfecta carryover will be frozen until
it is won or distributed under other provisions of this rule. After the
second-half Twin Superfecta carryover is frozen, 100% of the net Twin
Superfecta pool for each individual contest shall be distributed to winners of
the first half of the Twin Superfecta pool.
15. A written request for permission to
distribute the Twin Superfecta carryover on a specific performance may be
submitted to the Department. The request must contain justification for the
distribution, an explanation of the benefit to be derived, and the intended
date and performance for the distribution.
16. Should the Twin Superfecta carryover be
designated for distribution on a specified date and performance, the following
precedence will be followed in determining winning tickets for the second half
of the Twin Superfecta after completion of the first half of the Twin
Superfecta:
a. As a single price pool to
those whose combination finished in correct sequence as the first four betting
interests; but if there are no such wagers, then
b. As a single price pool to those whose
combination included, in correct sequence, the first three betting interests;

combination correctly selected the first-place betting interest only; but if
there are no such wagers, then
e.
As a single price pool to holders of valid exchange tickets.
f. As a single price pool to holders of
outstanding first-half winning tickets.
17. Contrary to subsection (Q)(4) of the Twin
Superfecta rules, during a performance designated to distribute the Twin
Superfecta carryover, exchange tickets will be issued for those combinations
selecting the greatest number of betting interests in their correct order of
finish for the first-half of the Twin Superfecta. If there are no wagers
correctly selecting the first-, second-, third-, and fourth-place finishers, in
their exact order, then exchange tickets shall be issued for combinations
correctly selecting the first-, second-, and third-place betting interests. If
there are no wagers correctly selecting the first-, second-, and third-place
finishers, in their exact order, then exchange tickets shall be issued for
combinations correctly selecting the first- and second-place betting interests.
If there are no wagers correctly selecting the first- and second-place
finishers, in their exact order, then exchange tickets shall be issued for
combinations correctly selecting the first-place betting interest only. If
there are no wagers selecting the first-place betting interest only in the
first half of the Twin Superfecta, all first-half tickets will become winners
and will receive 100% of that day's net Twin Superfecta pool and any existing
Twin Superfecta carryover as a single price pool.
18. The Twin Superfecta carryover shall be
designated for distribution on a specified date and performance only under the
following circumstances:
a. Upon written
approval from the Department as provided in subsection (Q)(15) of the Twin
Superfecta rules.

approval from the Department when there is a change in the carryover cap or
when the Twin Superfecta is discontinued.
c. On the closing performance of the meet or
split meet.
19. If, for
any reason, the Twin Superfecta carryover must be held over to the
corresponding Twin Superfecta pool of a subsequent meet, the carryover shall be
deposited in an interest-bearing account approved by the Department. The Twin
Superfecta carryover plus accrued interest shall then be added to the
second-half Twin Superfecta pool of the following meet on a date and
performance so designated by the Department.
20. Providing information to any person
regarding covered combinations, amounts wagered on specific combinations,
number of tickets sold, or number of valid exchange tickets is prohibited. This
shall not prohibit necessary communications between totalisator and pari-mutuel
department employees for processing of pool data.
21. The permittee must obtain written
approval from the Department concerning the scheduling of Twin Superfecta
contests, the percentages of the net pool added to the first-half pool and
second-half pool, and the amount of any cap to be set on the carryover. Any
changes to the approved Twin Superfecta format require prior approval from the
Department.
R. Grand
Slam Pools
1. The Grand Slam requires
selection of the Exacta, Trifecta, and Superfecta, respectively, in three
consecutive contests. Each winning ticket for the first Grand Slam contest must
be exchanged for a free ticket on the second Grand Slam contest in order to
remain eligible for the second contest share of the Grand Slam pool. Such
tickets may be exchanged only at attended ticket windows prior to the second
Grand Slam contest. Winning Grand Slam tickets on the first race shall receive
both an exchange and a monetary payoff. Each winning ticket for the second
Grand Slam contest must be exchanged for a free ticket on the third Grand Slam
Contest in order to remain eligible for the third contest share of the Grand
Slam pool. Such tickets must be exchanged only at attended ticket windows prior
to the third Grand Slam contest. Winning tickets on the second race shall
receive both an exchange and a monetary payoff. The three designated Grand Slam
contests shall be included in only one Grand Slam pool.
2. After wagering closes for the first
contest of the Grand Slam and commissions have been deducted from the pool, the
net pool shall be divided into three separate pools: the first contest pool
(25%), the second contest pool (25%), and the third contest pool
(50%).
3. In the first Grand Slam
contest only, winning wagers shall be determined using the following
precedence, based upon the official order of finish for the first Grand Slam
contest:
a. If contestants of a coupled entry
or mutuel field finish as the first two finishers, as a single price pool to
those selecting the coupled entry or mutuel field combined with the next
separate betting interest in the official order of finish; otherwise
b. As a single price pool to those whose
combination finished in correct sequence as the first two betting interests;
but if there are no such wagers, then
c. As a profit split to those whose
combination included either the first-place betting interest to finish first or
the second-place betting interest to finish second; but if there are no such
wagers on one of those two finishers, then
d. As a single price pool to those whose
combination included the one covered betting interest to finish first or
second.
4. Winning
tickets from the first contest of the Grand Slam shall be exchanged for tickets
selecting the first three finishers of the second contest of the Grand Slam.
The second contest pool shall be distributed to winning wagers in the following
precedence, based upon the official order of finish for the second Grand Slam
contest:
a. As a single price pool to those
whose combination finished in correct sequence as the first three betting
interests; but if there are no such wagers, then
b. The entire pool for the second and third
contests shall be added to any existing carryover monies and retained for the
third contest pool of the next performance.
5. Winning tickets for the second contest of
the Grand Slam shall be exchanged for tickets selecting the first four
finishers of the third contest of the Grand Slam. The third contest pool and
any existing carryover monies shall be distributed to winning wagers in the
following precedence, based upon the official order of finish for the third
Grand Slam contest:
a. As a single price pool
to those whose combination finished in correct sequence as the first four
betting interests; but if there are no such wagers, then
b. The entire pool for the third contest
shall be added to any existing carryover monies and retained for the
corresponding third contest pool of the next performance.
6. If a winning Grand Slam ticket is not
presented for cashing and exchange prior to the next Grand Slam contest, the
ticket holder may still collect the monetary value associated with the
corresponding pool but forfeits all rights to any distribution of subsequent
Grand Slam pools.
7. Coupled
entries and mutuel fields shall be prohibited in the second and third races of
the Grand Slam.
8. Should a betting
interest in the first contest of the Grand Slam be scratched, those Grand Slam
wagers including the scratched betting interest shall be refunded.
9. Should a betting interest in the second or
third contests of the Grand Slam be scratched, an announcement concerning the
scratch shall be made and a reasonable amount of time shall be provided for
exchange of tickets that include the scratched betting interest. If tickets
have not been exchanged prior to the close of betting for the corresponding
contest, the ticket holder forfeits all rights to the remainder of the Grand
Slam pool.
10. If there is a dead
heat or multiple dead heats in any of the contests of the Grand Slam, all Grand
Slam wagers selecting the correct order of finish, counting a betting interest
involved in a dead heat as finishing in any dead-heated position, shall be
winners. Contrary to the usual practice, the aggregate number of winning
tickets shall be divided into the net pool and paid the same price.
11. If any of the Grand Slam contests are
cancelled prior to the first Grand Slam contest, or the first Grand Slam
contest is declared "no contest," the entire Grand Slam pool shall be refunded
on Grand Slam wagers for that contest and the remaining Grand Slam contests
shall be cancelled. Any existing carryover monies pursuant to subsections
(R)(4) and (5) of this rule shall carryover to the next consecutive racing
program of that meeting.
12. If the
second contest of the Grand Slam is canceled or declared "no contest," or if
less than three contestants finish, the second contest pool of the Grand Slam
shall be distributed equally among holders of second contest Grand Slam
exchange tickets, and the third-contest pool of the Grand Slam shall carryover
to the third-contest pool of the next performance.
13. If the third contest of the Grand Slam is
canceled or declared "no contest" before the second contest has been made
official but after the first contest (pursuant to subsection (R)(11) of this
rule), that racing day's third-contest pool shall be distributed equally among
holders of second-contest Grand Slam exchange tickets. If the third contest of
the Grand Slam is cancelled or declared "no contest" after the second contest
has been made official, that racing day's third contest shall be distributed
equally among holders of the third-contest Grand Slam exchange tickets. In such
instance, no carryover pool would be generated from that racing day.
14. If no distribution is made pursuant to
subsection (R)(5)(a) of this rule, on the last day of the race meeting the
permittee shall distribute the third-race pool and any existing carryover
monies equally among the holders of exchange tickets selecting the finishing
contestants in the third race. The net pool shall be distributed to winning
wagers in the following precedence, based upon the official order of finish:
a. As a single price pool to those whose
combination finished in correct sequence as the first three betting interests;
but if there are no such wagers, then
b. As a single price pool to those whose
combination included, in correct sequence, the first two betting interests; but
if there are no such wagers, then
c. As a single price pool to those whose
combination correctly selected the first-place betting interest only; but if
there are no such wagers, then
d.
As a single price pool to all holders of third-race tickets.
15. If there were no winning
wagers in the second race of the Grand Slam on the last day of the race
meeting, the permittee shall distribute the second-race pool and any existing
carryover monies equally among the holders of exchange tickets selecting the
finishing contestants in the second race. The net pool shall be distributed to
winning wagers in the following precedence, based upon the official order of
finish:
a. As a single price pool to those
whose combination included, in correct sequence, the first two betting
interests; but if there are no such wagers, then
b. As a single price pool to those whose
combination correctly selected the first-place betting interest only; but if
there are no such wagers, then
c.
As a single price pool to all holders of second-race tickets.
16. If there were no winning
wagers in the first race of the Grand Slam on the last day of the race meeting,
the permittee shall distribute the first-race pool and any existing carryover
monies as a profit split to the holders of tickets selecting either the
first-place finisher to finish first or the second-place finisher to finish
second. If there were still no winning wagers in the first race of the Grand
Slam, such monies shall be distributed to all ticket holders.
17. Grand Slam tickets shall be issued in
multiples of $1.00.
