Section 11.04.01.844 - TRI-SUPERFECTA POOLS01.Tri-Superfecta Pools. The Tri-Superfecta requires selection of the first three (3) finishers, in their exact order, in the first two (2) designated contests and the first four (4) finishers, in exact order, in the second of the two (2) 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 will be included in only one (1) Tri-Superfecta pool.02.Providing Pools. After wagering closes for the first-half of the Tri-Superfecta and commissions have been deducted from the pool, the net pool will then be divided into two (2) separate pools: the first-half Tri-Superfecta pool and the second-half Tri-Superfecta pool.03.Winning Precedence. In the first Tri-Superfecta contest only, winning tickets must 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 (3) 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 (2) 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 must be refunded on Tri-Superfecta wagers for that contest and the second-half cancelled.04.Carryover Pool. If no first-half Tri-Superfecta ticket selects the first three (3) finishers of that contest in exact order, winning ticket holders will not receive any exchange tickets for the second-half Tri-Superfecta pool. In such case, the second-half Tri-Superfecta pool must be retained and added to any existing Tri-Superfecta carryover pool.05.Exchange of Tickets. Winning tickets from the first-half of the Tri-Superfecta will be exchanged for tickets selecting the first four (4) finishers of the second-half of the Tri-Superfecta. The second-half Tri-Superfecta pool must 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 (4) betting interests; but if there are no such tickets, then;b. The entire second-half Tri-Superfecta pool for that contest must be added to any existing carryover monies and retained for the corresponding second-half Tri-Superfecta pool of the next performance.06.Forfeiture of Rights. 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.07.Coupled Entries and Mutuel Field. Coupled entries and mutuel fields are prohibited in Tri-Superfecta contests.08.Scratched Interest. Should a betting interest in the first-half of the Tri-Superfecta be scratched, those Tri-Superfecta tickets including the scratched betting interest must be refunded.09.Second-Half Betting Interest Scratch. Should a betting interest in the second-half of the Tri-Superfecta be scratched, an announcement concerning the scratch must be made and a reasonable amount of time 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.Reduced Interests. 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 will be entitled to the second-half Tri-Superfecta pool for that contest as a single price pool, but not the Tri-Superfecta carryover.11.Dead Heat. 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, is a winner. In the case of a dead heat occurring in:a. The first-half of the Tri-Superfecta, the payoff is calculated as a profit split.b. The second-half of the Tri-Superfecta, the payoff is calculated as a single price pool.12.Cancelled Contest. 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 must be refunded on Tri-Superfecta wagers for that contest and the second-half cancelled.13.Second-Half Cancelled. If the second-half Tri-Superfecta contest is cancelled or declared "no contest," all exchange tickets and outstanding first-half winning Tri-Superfecta tickets will 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 must be distributed as described in Subsection 844.03 of these rules.14.Capped Carryover. The Tri-Superfecta carryover may be capped at a designated level approved by the Racing Commission 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, one hundred percent (100%) of the net Tri-Superfecta pool for each individual contest will be distributed to winners of the first-half of the Tri-Superfecta pool.15.Request to Distribute Carryover. A written request for permission to distribute the Tri-Superfecta carryover on a specific performance may be submitted to the Racing Commission. The request must contain justification for the distribution, an explanation of the benefits to be derived, and the intended date and performance for the distribution.16.Winning Precedence. 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 (4) 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 (3) 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 (2) 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.Exchange of Tickets. Contrary to Subsection 844.04 these 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 will 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 will 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 one hundred percent (100%) of that day's net Tri-Superfecta pool and any existing Tri-Superfecta carryover as a single price pool.18.Carryover Designation. The Tri-Superfecta carryover may be designated for distribution on a specified date and performance only under the following circumstances:a. Upon written approval from the Racing Commission as provided in Subsection 844.15 of these rules.b. Upon written approval from the Racing Commission 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.Carryover from Past Subsequent Meet. If, for any reason, the Tri-Superfecta carryover must be held over to the corresponding Tri-Superfecta pool of a subsequent meet, the carryover must be deposited in an interest-bearing account approved by the Racing Commission. The Tri-Superfecta carryover plus accrued interest will then be added to the second-half Tri-Superfecta pool of the following meet on a date and performance so designated by the Racing Commission.20.Prohibited Information. 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 until the race is made official. This does not prohibit necessary communication between totalizator and pari-mutuel department employees for processing of pool data.21.Contest Approval. The racing association must obtain written approval from the Racing Commission concerning the scheduling of Tri-Superfecta contest, 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 requires prior approval from the Racing Commission.Idaho Admin. Code r. 11.04.01.844
