English

Subject field(s)
  • Games of Chance
  • Horse Racing and Equestrian Sports
DEF

A form of wagering in which a bettor must select the winners of two designated races on the same racing program.

CONT

To win the DD you must correctly pick the winners of both the first and second races (though an occasional track will run a double on other races.).

CONT

Where, in respect of the second race of a daily double, no daily double bets have been made that combine the winning horse in the first race of a daily double with the winning horse in the second race of the daily double, an association shall calculate the pay-out price of a daily double pool by dividing the net pool by the value of the bets made that combine the winning horse in the first race with the next horse in the official result, on which bets have been made in the second race of the daily double.

DEF

Mode de pari qui consiste à miser sur le cheval gagnant de n'importe laquelle des deux courses consécutives d'un même programme.

CONT

Il s'agit de trouver le gagnant de la première et le gagnant de la deuxième course. Vous pouvez multiplier les combinaisons à votre gré et même, jouer, par exemple, le «5» de la première avec tous les concurrents de la seconde épreuve. Si le «5» de la première gagne, vous êtes sûr de gagner le pari double.

CONT

Lorsque, relativement à la seconde course du pari double, il n'y a aucun pari de type pari double qui combine le cheval gagnant de la première course du pari double avec le cheval gagnant de la seconde course du pari double, l'association calcule le rapport de la poule de pari double en divisant la poule nette par le total des mises des paris qui combinent le cheval gagnant de la première course avec le cheval qui termine au rang suivant, selon le résultat officiel, après le cheval gagnant de la seconde course et sur lequel des paris de type pari double ont été faits.

CONT

Daily double pool. The amount wagered on the winning combination, such being the horse or betting interest which finishes first in the first daily double race, is deducted from the net pool to determine the profit; the profit is divided by the amount wagered on the winning combination, such quotient being the profit per dollar wagered on the winning daily double combination; payoff includes the amount wagered and profit thereon.

CONT

The total daily double pool was about $10,000, which is very small, and we're in the process of checking all the wagers.

CONT

Subject to subsection 134(2), section 135, subsection 136(2) and section 137, an association shall calculate the pay-out price of a daily double pool by dividing the net pool by the value of the bets made that combine the winning horses in each of the two races of the daily double.
