  • Patent number: 8814668
    Abstract: A pari-mutuel wagering system has a gaming computer, a wager database, an account database, and a wager receiving program operably installed in the memory of the gaming computer. The wager receiving program defines a first group of sporting events, and a second group of the sporting events. Wagers are made on who will win each of the sporting events in the first and second groups, and a primary pool of the wagers is allocated to a first common pari-mutuel fund, a second common pari-mutuel fund, and to a house commission. Winning wagers regarding the first group receive a payout according to a pari-mutuel strategy from the first common pari-mutuel fund, and are also eligible to win the second common pari-mutuel fund if they make winning wagers regarding the second group.
