horse bettors, have you seen tied #1 result?

**shari91** · 11-21-10, 11:09 PM

Yes. Doesn't happen very often but it does happen. Very frustrating.

**exstatman** · 11-21-10, 11:23 PM

Happens all the time, basically the win pool becomes a place pool, no big deal. Look at it this way, better to be paid half than nothing.

Once in a great while there's a triple dead heat, I've never seen one live and have seen my share of races, but here's a race that had one

**wtt0315** · 11-22-10, 05:43 AM

yeah i hate that

**wtf** · 11-22-10, 05:54 AM

your friends are VERY LUCKY

the hong kong jockey just changed the way they calculate dead heat dividends

they used to do it by the weight of money, once i got in a dead with with huge favorite , my horse was 12-1 , i did not get EVEN FUKING MONEY BACK

Pico it's called a dead heat. Happens occasionally. Better to cash than to not cash.....

i saw a triple dead heat at rockingham park in salem new hampshire some years ago in the mid 1970's. it was a harness horse meet .it made the front page of all the local papers.istared at the photo finish posted at the rock for quite sometime,trying to find a judges error,but, ther called it right.it was really something.
ps:vandeleigh,your posted video is embedded!which means to me i can't view it.nice try anyway.

nothing new, dead heat

I would say dead heats happens once a week per track that runs a full schedule

**str** · 11-22-10, 08:31 AM

People are always upset with a dead heat.I guess everyone figures they should have won and not the other guy.

**brxbmbers42** · 11-22-10, 09:31 AM

happens all the time. better than you're horse finishing second with a win bet. then you get nothing

**pirate** · 11-22-10, 10:41 AM

I was IN a triple dead heat once. Harness racing at Bay Meadows in the 70's.

**zebra58** · 11-22-10, 06:10 PM

remember last year @cd 3 races were called dead-heats as the photo camera was broken on a friday night, guess the stewards played it safe, as the next day it was clear 2 of the races were won by a long nose, better safe than sorry,..

Wow, I don't remember that - shameful that a track like CD didn't have some kind of backup system.

just looked it up, it was only 2 races with a win dead-heat, think one of the owners of a horse involved tried to get one of the races overturned the next day,

Since I lose more photo finishes than I won, I'm happy with a dead heat .
