Top 10 winners qualify for the 2009 Coast Casinos Horseplayer World Series
Entry fee is $400
Each contestant will make fifteen individual WIN and PLACE [mythical] wagers per day on selected race tracks. Tracks will be designated. Contestants may play any races from the designated tracks.
More than one horse may be selected per race, but each wager must be $200 to WIN, $200 to Place. Each $200 win/$200 Place wager is a separate bet and will count as one of the fifteen wagers for the day.
Contest points will be based on full track odds for the first $20. The remainder of the wager will be credited at a maximum of 20/1 on the Win and 10/1 on the Place.
Point totals accumulate for three days
Entries will be limited to ten per person (no partners)
Contest tracks will be determined six weeks prior to the start of the contest [so they should be able to give you that info..]
The payout is 1-50 and is a percentage - they illustrate prize money based on 550 entrants - [1st $88k, 2nd $33K, 3rd $15k etc...] don't know if they're going to get that many in a mid-summer tournament, guess another thing to ask if you call..
An extra $19.5k in daily prizes paid by Coast Casinos to 1-3rd place finishers
GOOD LUCK!
