What would it take to change this rule....

How exactly is that fair? It should work the same way as a dead heat for win, half the pool goes to each of the winners, as the pick 3 payoffs are allocated in this situation (for reference, the pick 3 payoffs were $697 and $138, so obviously a huge difference and probably even more so in the pick 4 pools)

you also make a good point. so i've decided to retire from my self appointed position as arbitor of fairness and leave it up to people that get paid to do these things.
