Wisconsin Administrative Code › Department of Administration [Gaming] › Chapter Game 9 - Pari-mutuel wagering pools › Section Game 9.13 - Pick (N) wagering

Current through June 24, 2024
(1) Each person participating in a Pick (N)
					pool shall select the winning animal in (N) consecutive races designated by the
					association. The number of contests so designated shall be greater than 2. Once
					an association has decided the number of contests comprising the Pick (N), it
					may not change that number in the middle of a meet without prior approval of
					the division. The contests so designated comprise the Pick (N) for that
					performance. The association shall issue the Pick (N) participant a ticket
					which shall reflect the participant's selections in the designated
					contests.
(2) A validly issued Pick
					(N) ticket timely surrendered to the association by the legal holder thereof
					shall be the only evidence of a person's participation in a Pick (N)
					pari-mutuel pool. The acceptance of a Pick (N) ticket by taking an issued
					ticket away from the window or terminal from which it is purchased shall
					constitute an acknowledgement by the purchaser of the correctness of the
					ticket, and each purchaser of a Pick (N) ticket agrees to be bound by the terms
					and provisions of this requirement, other division rules and regulations
					notwithstanding. Neither the association, totalizator company nor the state of
					Wisconsin shall be liable to any person for any ticket which is not a winning
					ticket in accordance with the provisions of this rule nor shall they, or any of
					them, be liable to any person for any Pick (N) ticket not delivered for any
					reason, including but not limited to, mechanical malfunction, electrical
					failure, machine locking, or other cause.
(3) The Pick (N) pool shall operate as
					follows:
(a) Pick (N) with carryover.
1. The Pick (N) pool shall consist of 2
					separate and distinct pari-mutuel pools. At the option of the association, 50%
					or 75% of the gross amount of all sums wagered on Pick (N) tickets on each
					performance shall be paid into the pari-mutuel pool to be known as the
					"Jackpot." The remaining 50% or 25% of the gross amounts of all sums wagered on
					Pick (N) tickets for that performance shall be paid into a pari-mutuel pool to
					the known as the "Super (N)." The association shall notify the division in
					writing before the beginning of each race meet of its decision as to which one
					of the Pick (N) wagering and gross amount splits has been selected. Once the
					meet begins, no changes shall be allowed without written approval of the
					division.
2. The Super (N) and
					Jackpot, if any, shall be distributed as a single price pool to those who
					selected the first-place finisher in each of the Pick (N) contests, based upon
					the official order of finish. If there are no wagers which selected the
					first-place finisher in each of the races comprising the Pick (N) , then the
					Super (N) shall be distributed as a single price pool to those who selected the
					first-place finisher in the greatest number of Pick (N) contests.
