205 CMR 6.38 - Quinella Double Pools
(1) The Quinella
Double requires selection of the first two finishers, irrespective of order, in
each of two specified contests. (ARCI c. 9 cal. § J(1))
(2) The net Quinella Double pool shall be
distributed to winning wagers in the following precedence, based upon the
official order of finish:
(a) if a coupled
entry or mutuel field finishes as the first two contestants in either contest,
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 for that contest, as well as the first two finishers in the alternate
Quinella Double contest; otherwise
(b) as a single price pool to those who
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
the first two finishers in either of the two Quinella Double contests, but if
there are no such wagers on one of those contests; then,
(d) as a single price pool to those who
selected the first two finishers in the one covered Quinella Double contest,
but if there were no such wagers; then
(e) the entire pool shall be refunded on
Quinella Double wagers for those contests. (ARCI c. 9 cal. §
J(2))
(3) If there is a
dead heat for first in either of the two Quinella Double contests involving:
(a) contestants representing the same betting
interest, the Quinella Double pool shall be distributed to those selecting the
coupled entry or mutuel field combined with the next separate betting interest
in the official order of finish for that contest;
(b) contestants representing two betting
interests, the Quinella Double pool shall be distributed as if no dead heat
occurred;
(c) contestants
representing three or more betting interests, the Quinella Double pool shall be
distributed as a profit split. (ARCI c. 9 cal. § J(3))
(4) If there is a dead heat for
second in either of the Quinella Double contests involving contestants
representing the same betting interest, the Quinella Double pool shall be
distributed as if no dead heat occurred. (ARCI c. 9 cal. § J(4))
(5) If there is a dead heat for second in
either of the Quinella Double contests involving contestants representing two
or more betting interests, the Quinella Double pool shall be distributed as
profit split. (ARCI c. 9 cal. § J(5))
(6) Should a betting interest in the
first-half of the Quinella Double be scratched prior to the first Quinella
Double contest being declared official, all money wagered on combinations
including the scratched betting interest shall deducted from the Quinella
Double pool and refunded. (ARCI c. 9 cal. § J(6))
(7) Should a betting interest in the
second-half of the Quinella Double be scratched prior to the close of wagering
on the first Quinella Double contest, all money wagered on combinations
including the scratched betting interest shall be deducted from the Quinella
Double pool and refunded. (ARCI c. 9 cal. § J(7))
(8) Should a betting interest in the
second-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 the first contest with a combination including the scratched betting
interest 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 declared in this calculation. The consolation payoff is deducted from the
net Quinella Double pool before calculation and distribution of the winning
Quinella Double payoff. In the event of a dead heat involving separate betting
interests, the net Quinella Double pool shall be distributed as a profit split.
(ARCI c. 9 cal. § J(8))
(9) If
either of the Quinella Double contests is canceled prior to the first Quinella
Double contest, or the first Quinella Double contest is declared "no contest",
the entire Quinella Double pool shall be refunded on Quinella Double wagers for
those contests. (ARCI c. 9 cal. § J(9))
(10) If the second Quinella Double contest is
canceled or declared "no contest" after the conclusion of the first Quinella
Double contest, the net Quinella Double pool shall be distributed as a single
price pool to wagers selecting the winning combination in the first Quinella
Double contest. If there are no wagers selecting the winning combination in the
first Quinella Double contest, the entire Quinella Double pool shall be
refunded on Quinella Double wagers for those contests. (ARCI c. 9 cal. §
J(10))
