When a doubleheader occurs, the first Baseball Game of the doubleheader will always be the Sports Action Event, unless it is the continuation of a suspended Baseball Game, in which event the second Baseball Game - the regularly scheduled one - is the Sports Action Event that will be included on the Menu.

5. WINNING SELECTIONS

Winning Selections are determined by correctly predicting the Result of all Sports Action Events selected from the Menu for SPORTS ACTION ODDSET or for SPORTS ACTION ODDSET COMBO by correctly predicting the Result of a specific number of Sports Action Events selected from the Menu.

6. WINNING TICKETS

Any valid ticket bearing a Winning Selection is a Winning Ticket and entities its holder(s) to claim the prize calculated in accordance with Section 7 and shown on the SPORTS ACTION ODDSET or SPORTS ACTION ODDSET COMBO ticket.

7. PRIZES

Subject to Section 9, the prize value for SPORTS ACTION ODDSET is calculated by multiplying the odds for all Sports Action Events selected to determine the total odds for that ticket. The total odds are then multiplied by the amount bet to determine the prize value. All predictions must be correct in order to win.
