Kan. Admin. Regs. § 112-9-40a - Tri-superfecta pools
(a) 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 shall receive both an exchange and a monetary payoff.
Both of the designated tri-superfecta contests shall be included in only one
tri-superfecta pool.
(b) After
wagering closes for the first-half of the tri-superfecta and the takeout has
been deducted from the pool, the net pool then shall be divided into two
separate pools: the first-half tri-superfecta pool and the second-half
tri-superfecta pool.
(c) 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 and disregarding all coupled or field entries other than
the first contestant of a coupled or field entry to finish:
(1) as a single price pool to those whose
combination finishes in correct sequence as the first three betting interests;
but if there are no such wagers, then
(2) as a single price pool to those whose
combination includes, in correct sequence, the first two betting interests; but
if there are no such wagers, then
(3) as a single price pool to those whose
combination correctly selects the first-place betting interest only; but if
there are no such wagers, then
(4)
the entire tri-superfecta pool shall be refunded on tri-superfecta wagers for
that contest, and the second-half shall be canceled.
(d) 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.
(e) 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 and disregarding all coupled or field entries other than
the first contestant of a coupled or field entry to finish:
(1) as a single price pool, including any
existing carryover monies, to those whose combination finishes in correct
sequence as the first four betting interests; but if there are no such tickets,
then
(2) 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.
(f) 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.
(g) If a betting interest in the first-half
of the tri-superfecta is scratched, those tri-superfecta tickets including the
scratched betting interest shall be refunded.
(h) If a betting interest in the second-half
of the tri-superfecta is 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.
(i) If, due to a late scratch, the
number of betting interests in the second-half of the tri-superfecta is reduced
to a 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.
(j) 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 the
first-half of the tri-superfecta, the payoff shall be calculated as a profit
split. In the case of a dead heat occurring in the second-half of the
tri-superfecta, the payoff shall be calculated as a single price pool.
(k) If either of the
tri-superfecta contests is canceled 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 canceled.
(l) If the second-half tri-superfecta contest
is canceled 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 there are no such tickets, the net tri-superfecta
pool shall be distributed as described in subparagraph (c) of this regulation.
(m) The tri-superfecta carryover
may be capped at a designated level as provided in these racing regulations.
(n) An organization licensee may
request permission to distribute the tri-superfecta carryover on a specific
performance. The request shall be submitted to the commission in writing and
shall include justification for the distribution, an explanation of the benefit
to be derived and the intended date and performance when the distribution will
be made.
(o) If the tri-superfecta
carryover is designated for distribution on a specified date and performance,
the following precedence shall be followed in determining winning tickets for
the second-half of the tri-superfecta after completion of the first-half of the
tri-superfecta:
(1) as a single price pool to
those whose combination finishes in correct sequence as the first four betting
interests; but if there are no such wagers, then
(2) as a single price pool to those whose
combination includes, in correct sequence, the first three betting interests;
but if there are no such wagers, then
(3) as a single price pool to those whose
combination includes, in correct sequence, the first two betting interests; but
if there are no such wagers, then
(4) as a single price pool to those whose
combination includes, in correct sequence, the first-place betting interest
only; but if there are no such wagers, then
(5) as a single price pool to holders of
valid exchange tickets; but if there are no valid exchange tickets, then
(6) as a single price pool to
holders of outstanding first-half winning tickets.
(p) Notwithstanding the provisions of this
regulation, during a performance designated to distribute the tri-superfecta
carryover, exchange tickets shall 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 shall become winners and shall receive 100 percent of that
day's net tri-superfecta pool and any existing tri-superfecta carryover as a
single price pool.
(q) The
tri-superfecta carryover shall be designated for distribution on a specified
date and performance only under the following circum-stances:
(1) upon written approval from the commission
as provided in subparagraph (n) of this regulation; or
(2) upon written approval from the commission
when there is a change in the carryover cap or when the tri-superfecta is
discontinued; or
(3) on the
closing performance of the meeting or split meeting.
(r) If, for any reason, the tri-superfecta
carryover must be carried over to the corresponding tri-superfecta pool of a
subsequent meeting, the carryover shall be deposited in an interest-bearing
account approved by the commission. The tri-superfecta carryover plus accrued
interest shall then be added to the second-half tri-superfecta pool of the
following meeting on a date and performance designated by the commission.
(s) Providing information to any
person regarding covered combinations, amounts wagered on specific combinations
or number of tickets sold is prohibited. This shall not prohibit any necessary
communication for the processing of pool data between totalisator and
parimutuel department employees.
(t) At the beginning of each meeting each
organization licensee shall obtain written approval from the commission
concerning the scheduling of tri-superfecta contests, the percentages of the
net pool added to the first-half pool and the second-half pool and the
designated amount of any cap to be set on the carryover. Any modification of
the approved tri-superfecta procedures requires prior approval from the
commission.
