The NYRA is now using Net Pool Pricing. Net Pool Pricing allows for pools in different currencies to be merged despite different takeouts, breakage and currency.
This change will effect the accuracy of the NYRA place and show payoffs in ATRpro as there is no way to calculate the precise payoffs from the tote pool data without knowing the source of the winning tickets. The NYRA website states: "For New York fans, Net Pool Pricing will affect the way prices are calculated, but there will be no changes in prices under single-priced pools such as Win, Exacta, Trifecta and Pick Six. But, in multi-priced pools such as Place and Show, longshots may pay a little more while favorites may pay a little less. Fans will no longer be able to calculate prices from the pools listed on the toteboard because of the additional international variables that affect the algorithm."
