Did they pay 6/6 to the scratched runners?

YES!! This is going to cost them some dough. If you had the 2/3/7 on your ticket, then you hit for 54k and didn't realize it until the teller handed you a check with alot more then 18k-taxes on it....

I'm sure they didn't pay out more than the total pool amount upfront.

Does this mean if you had the "real winner" and not any scratches you got shorted because they paid out to scratched runners (not consistent with rules in place)?

I would think the entire pool less refunds would be a higher payout then what happened (skipping refunds and splitting pot 3 ways).

To your 2nd part, yes, I would think so, the math works out that way, because if you had the 2, it is really the 7, so there are more winning tickets that way.

Which is worse? This, or when someone makes a bet from Laurel on a race at Fair Grounds, the bet never goes through because of a computer glitch, and Laurel never makes an announcement informing all bettors that they are entitled to a refund? The only person who ever hears about this is the person at Laurel with a winning ticket who tries to collect, and is instead told he gets a refund because the bet was not accepted by Fair Grounds.

FYI, I am using Laurel and Fair Grounds as an example. But this kind of thing has happened before.

I e-mailed my ADW this morning and got the following response, which is consistant with Scav's conversation with Mr. Goodman today:

This error has been brought to our attention, we are in the process of complying a list of effected members to provide refunds to. Please allow 72 hours before you see the adjust made to your wagering account.

Refund received this afternoon:

On Wednesday, April 16th, 2008 you placed a wager(s) on the Pick 6 at Keeneland. Due to the scratches in the first leg of the Pick 6, you were entitled to either a full refund or partial refund according to Keeneland’s rules. Therefore, we have gone ahead and positively adjusted your account for the amount due from the refund.
