Kan. Admin. Regs. § 112-9-44 - Place pick (N) pools
(a) The place pick
(N) shall require selection of the first-place or second-place finisher in each
of a designated number of contests. Each licensee shall secure written approval
from the commission concerning the scheduling of place pick (N) contests, the
designation of one of the methods stated in subsection (b) of this regulation,
the distinctive name identifying the pool, and the amount of any cap to be set
on the carryover pool. Each change to the approved place pick (N) format shall
be approved by the commission before that change is implemented.
(b) Each place pick (N) pool shall be
apportioned using one of the following methods:
(1) For a place pick (N) with carryover pool,
each net place pick (N) pool and carryover pool, if any, shall be distributed
as a single-price pool to those who select the first-place or second-place
finisher in each of the place 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 select the
first-place or second-place finisher in the greatest number of place pick (N)
contests, and the remainder shall be added to the carryover pool.
(2) For a place pick (N) with a minor pool
and a carryover pool, the major share of the net place pick (N) pool and the
carryover pool, if any, shall be distributed to those who select the
first-place or second-place finisher in each of the place pick (N) contests,
based upon the official order of finish. The minor share of the net place pick
(N) pool shall be distributed to those who select the first-place or
second-place finisher in the second greatest number of place pick (N) contests,
based upon the official order of finish. If there are no wagers selecting the
first-place or second-place finisher of all place pick (N) contests, the minor
share of the net place pick (N) pool shall be distributed as a single-price
pool to those who select the first-place or second-place finisher in the
greatest number of place pick (N) contests, and the major share shall be added
to the carryover pool.
(3) For the
place pick (N) with no minor pool and no carryover pool, each net place pick
(N) pool shall be distributed as a single-price pool to those who select the
first-place or second-place finisher in the greatest number of place pick (N)
contests, based upon the official order of finish. If there are no winning
wagers, the pool shall be refunded.
(4) For a place pick (N) with a minor pool
and no carryover pool, the major share of the net place pick (N) pool shall be
distributed to those who select the first-place or second-place finisher in the
greatest number of place pick (N) contests, based upon the official order of
finish. The minor share of the net place pick (N) pool shall be distributed to
those who select the first-place or second-place finisher in the second
greatest number of place pick (N) contests, based upon the official order of
finish. If there are no wagers selecting the first-place or second-place
finisher in a second greatest number of place pick (N) contests, the minor
share of the net place pick (N) pool shall be combined with the major share for
distribution as a single-price pool to those who select the first-place or
second-place finisher in the greatest number of place pick (N) contests. If the
greatest number of first-place or second-place finishers selected is one, the
major and minor shares shall be combined for distribution as a single-price
pool. If there are no winning wagers, the pool shall be refunded.
(5) For a place pick (N) with a minor pool
and no carryover pool, the major share of the net place pick (N) pool shall be
distributed to those who select the first-place or second-place finisher in
each of the place pick (N) contests, based upon the official order of finish.
The minor share of the net place pick (N) pool shall be distributed to those
who select the first-place or second-place finisher in the second greatest
number of place pick (N) contests, based upon the official order of finish. If
there are no wagers selecting the first-place or second-place finisher in all
place pick (N) contests, the entire net place pick (N) pool shall be
distributed as a single-price pool to those who select the first-place or
second-place finisher in the greatest number of place pick (N) contests. If
there are no wagers selecting the first-place or second-place finisher in a
second greatest number of place pick (N) contests, the minor share of the net
place pick (N) pool shall be combined with the major share for distribution as
a single-price pool to those who select the first-place or second-place
finisher in each of the place pick (N) contests. If there are no winning
wagers, the pool shall be refunded.
(c)
(1) If
there is a dead heat for first place in any of the place pick (N) contests
involving contestants representing the same betting interest, the place pick
(N) pool shall be distributed as if no dead heat had occurred.
(2) If there is a dead heat for first place
in any of the place pick (N) contests involving contestants representing two or
more betting interests, the place pick (N) pool shall be distributed as a
single-price pool with a winning wager, including each betting interest
participating in the dead heat.
(d)
(1) If
there is a dead heat for second place in any of the place pick (N) contests
involving contestants representing the same betting interest, the place pick
(N) pool shall be distributed as if no dead heat had occurred.
(2) If there is a dead heat for second place
in any of the place pick (N) contests involving contestants representing two or
more betting interests, the place pick (N) pool shall be distributed as a
single-price pool with a winning wager, including the betting interest that
finished first or any betting interest involved in the dead heat for second.
(e) If a betting
interest in any of the place pick (N) contests is scratched, the actual
favorite, as determined by total amounts wagered in the win pool at the host
track for the contest at the close of wagering on the contest, shall be
substituted for the scratched betting interest for all purposes, including pool
calculations. If 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 that become winners as a result
of the substitution, in addition to the normal winning combination.
(f) The place pick (N) pool shall be canceled
and all place pick (N) wagers for the individual performance shall be refunded
if any of the following occurs:
(1) At least
two contests included as part of a place pick 3 are canceled or declared "no
contest."
(2) At least three
contests included as part of a place pick 4, place pick 5, or place pick 6 are
canceled or declared "no contest."
(3) At least four contests included as part
of a place pick 7, place pick 8, or place pick 9 are canceled or declared "no
contest."
(4) At least five
contests included as part of a place pick 10 are canceled or declared "no
contest."
(g) If at
least one contest included as part of a place pick (N) is canceled or declared
"no contest," but not more than the number specified in subsection (f) of this
regulation, the net pool shall be distributed as a single-price pool to those
whose selections finish first or second in the greatest number of place pick
(N) contests for the performance. Each distribution shall include the portion
ordinarily retained for the place pick (N) carryover pool but not the carryover
pool from previous performances.
(h) The place pick (N) carryover may be
capped at a designated level approved by the commission so that if, at the
close of any performance, the amount in the place pick (N) carryover pool
equals or exceeds the designated cap, the place pick (N) carryover shall be
frozen until it is won or distributed in accordance with this regulation. After
the place pick (N) carryover pool is frozen, 100 percent of the net pool, part
of which ordinarily would be added to the place pick (N) carryover pool, shall
be distributed to those whose selection finishes first or second in the
greatest number of place pick (N) contests for the performance.
(i) A written request for permission to
distribute the place pick (N) carryover pool on a specific performance may be
submitted to the commission. Each request shall contain a statement of
justification for the distribution, the benefit to be derived, and the intended
date and performance for the distribution.
(j) If the place pick (N) carryover pool is
designated for distribution on a specified date and performance in which there
are no wagers selecting the first-place 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 finishes first or second in the greatest number
of place pick (N) contests. The place pick (N) carryover pool shall be
designated for distribution on a specified date and performance in the event of
any of the following:
(1) Upon written
approval from the commission as provided in subsection (i) of this regulation;
(2) upon written approval from the
commission if there is a change in the carryover pool cap or a change from one
type of place pick (N) wagering to another, or if the place pick (N) is
discontinued;
(3) on the closing
performance of the race meeting or split meeting; or
(4) upon the written approval of the
commission that, if the organization licensee fails to pay out the carryover
pool according to paragraph (j)(3) and the commission determines that it would
not be feasible for the track to run another race, the total carryover pool
remaining will be distributed to charitable organizations that have met the
requirements of
K.S.A.
74-8813(d), and amendments
thereto, and meet the organization's approved charitable distribution
guidelines.
(k) If the
place pick (N) carryover pool is carried over to the corresponding place pick
(N) pool of a subsequent race meeting, the carryover pool shall be deposited in
an interest-bearing account approved by the commission. Each place pick (N)
carryover pool plus accrued interest then shall be added to the net place pick
(N) pool on the date and performance designated by the commission.
(l) With the written approval of the
commission, the licensee may contribute to the place pick (N) carryover a sum
of money up to the amount of any designated cap.
(m) Providing information to any person
regarding covered combinations, amounts wagered on specific combinations,
number of tickets sold, or number of live tickets remaining shall be strictly
prohibited. This subsection shall not prohibit any necessary communication for
the processing of pool data between totalisator and parimutuel department
employees.
(n) Any organization
licensee may suspend previously approved place pick (N) wagering with the prior
approval of the commission. Any carryover pool shall be maintained until the
suspended place pick (N) wagering is reinstated. Any organization licensee may
request approval of a place pick (N) wager or separate wagering pool for
specific performances.
