What's a better alternative? Would you prefer that they grab the takeout and give everyone a paltry conso? That would go over great..

CHRB RULES (Pg. 156): http://www.chrb.ca.gov/policies_and_...116%282%29.pdf

1976.9. Pick (n) Pool.

(e) The Pick (n) pool shall be canceled and all Pick (n) wagers for the individual performance shall be refunded if:

(1) Three or more races included as part of a Pick 4, Pick 5 or Pick 6 are canceled or declared no contest;
..
Screwed might be a bad choice of words, But as a bettor who wasnt sure what the rule was, that's how I'd probably feel if I was 3 for 3 in the first three races of the sequence and got the same refund as the guy who was 0-3. Then again, I would've probably been the guy who was 0-3 and ripped up my ticket.

Steve, is 4 races completed of a pick 6 what most jurisdictions use?
