11 SEPTEMBER 2009 NEW ZEALAND GAZETTE, No. 136 3189
(c) Head to Head bets are official after 5 innings of play. If the home team is leading, the game is official after 4½ innings of play. If a game goes past 5 innings (including any extra innings) and is subsequently called off, the winner is determined by the score after the last full inning of play (except in the case when the home team score to tie, or take the lead in the bottom half of the inning in which the game is called off – the runs do count). However if any game is in delay or play is suspended and subsequently the game is played to completion (on the original start day or the next) the result will be determined by the final score upon completion of the game.
(d) In the event of a tie Rule 14.13 Dead Heats will apply. “Winning Team & Margin” Investors will receive a Refund. E.g. If the Yankees and the Blue Jays tie 7-7, Head to Head Investors will receive half their Return. Winning Team & Margin Investors will receive a Refund.
(e) Run line bets are official after 9 innings (or 8½ innings of the home team is leading).
(f) In the event of a tie Rule 14.13 Dead Heats will apply to head to head bets. Winning team and margin bets will be Void.
(g) If a game is abandoned or postponed in its entirety to another day then bets are Void.
