Current through Reg. 50, No. 138; July 16, 2024
(1) Wagering
				transactions are made at the point of sale in the state where the wager is
				placed. Wagers are evidenced by the issuance of pari-mutuel tickets issued to
				the bettors or, if applicable, by entries to individual betting
				accounts.

				may form common pools with out-of-state tracks. Where permitholders elect to
				form common pools the following shall apply:
(a) Where the Florida permitholder is the
				guest track, the wagering data for wagers accepted in Florida shall be
				transmitted by the guest track tote to the host track tote to form a common
				pool. Where primary and secondary guest tracks apply, all the pool data will be
				transmitted to the out-of-state host tote by the primary guest track tote. In
				the event of a totalisator or communications failure, the manual merge
				procedures indicated in Rule
				 75-9.003, F.A.C., shall
				apply.
(b) The Florida
				permitholder's pools shall remain logically separate for accounting, auditing
				and reporting purposes.

				interstate guest permitholders who desire to offer types of wagers other than

				wager.
(d) The out-of-state guest
				tote shall be required to electronically transmit all the pool data for each
				pool to the Florida host permitholder totalisator. The Florida host
				permitholder is required to have sufficient pool data to produce a complete
				table of wagers for each pool except for the Pick (N). For the Pick (N), a scan
				report may substitute for the table of wagers for the purposes of this
				paragraph.
(e) Except as provided
				for in paragraph (d) of this section, for the Pick (N) wager, scan reports for
				any other pool shall not be used as a substitute for the table of wagers
				without prior approval from the Division. The request shall provide a
				description of the security and accounting controls in place to ensure the
				correctness of the pool amount and the amount bet on the winner at the
				out-of-state sites. If the procedures and controls are found to be sufficient
				and the pool amount and the amount bet on the winner are determined to be
				verifiable by the Division auditors, the request shall be
				approved.
