Your understanding of the old law is incorrect. It has always been "and" and not "or". The same is true for signers at the $600 level.

Agreed, this is why I posted the lengthy rules explanation, previously:

(ii) Amount of the wager in the case of horse races, dog races, and
jai alai. In the case of a wagering transaction with respect to horse
races, dog races, or jai alai, all wagers placed in a single parimutuel
pool and represented on a single ticket are aggregated and treated as a
single wager for purposes of determining the amount of the wager
. A
ticket in the case of horse races, dog races, or jai alai is a written
or electronic record that the payee must present to collect proceeds
from a wager or wagers.

There was a loophole for the dime wager...if the dime super was hit for $599...no reporting. They figured the base wager at $2... I guess. $2 times 300-1=$600. Wondering if this stays the same under new rules...?

So if a dime Superfecta is hit that pays up to $4999.99, there will be no reporting nor withholding required..provided that "X" number of combinations are wagered in the pool....what is the fill-in answer for "X"

10 cent super

It would be nice to see .10 supers and .50 trifectas eliminated but I guess I am being greedy. The reporting changes are very helpful.

There never was any reporting for anything under $600, regardless of bet size.

Any bet size that keeps your maximum return at below 300-1 eliminates the need for to reporting.

it maybe 300 for 1, not 300 to 1

Right, and that is not going to change. If I bet one dime super combination only, cold, and it pays $601, then I am going to be reporting right? Or do the new rules bump the $600 threshold to $5000..if I have enough dimes on it....for reporting?

It used to be that it made sense to bet the dime super as opposed to the buck or 2 buck super because when hit it would remain under the $600 threshold more often...should that method still be followed...? or is there an optimum number of dime combinations (amounts, ticket size) to maximize return without crossing the $5000 threshold...?

I thinking $5000 divided by 300 (for 300-1) divided by .10 (dime) gives me 166.66667 (somethings) But I don't know what this represents..? Can anybody help me figure out what I'm trying to do here...?

4999.99 divided by 300 = $16.60 ticket or 166 combinations

I'm not sure if it matters if the payout was over $5000, as long as the payout paid 300-1 or less on the aggregate ticket. Anyone know the answer to this?

Yep, that is what I'm thinking but I need someone smarter than me to explain it clearly...I thinking this $16.60 (166 combination dime ticket) is optimal somehow...

If any of the 166 combinations in this example pays more than $5000 it will be a signer. If it were 166 combos @ .20 then it would be a signer for any combo paying over $9,960.
