Exactly.

It was almost certainly extreme incompetence over bad intentions by the people or person who designed and implemented the rule.

In order for a fair-shake - the people who got $7.60 (for hitting what amounted to a $2 pick 4! Ever see a P4 pay $3.80 for a buck? It did today) should have recieved the carryover portion of the pool. They were basically robbed.
