R19-2-515. Closing of Wagering in a Contest

A. A Department representative shall close wagering for each contest. After wagering is closed, no pari-mutuel tickets shall be sold for that contest. B. The racetrack permittee shall maintain, in good order, a system approved by the Department for closing wagering. 1. If the totalisator fails mechanically and becomes unreliable as to the amounts wagered, all money wagered on the contest shall be refunded. 2. If a breakdown of the totalisator cannot be repaired during wagering on a contest, the wagering for that contest shall be declared closed. The payoff for a race closed because of totalisator breakdown shall be computed on the sums wagered in each pool before the breakdown.
