In fairness, I have seen the payoffs sometimes higher due to this rule. It definitely happens sometimes when there is a minus pool. Under the "normal" show calc, a minus pool would pay $2.10 for each of the 3 horses; but with "net pool pricing", the 2 non-favs actually pay something more than $2.10.
