Poolpote-Expanding The Market ... | Inicio (Home)
 

The "Poolpote" is an excellent marketable wagering product, since payment to the only winning combination surpasses any horse race bet in the world. This is accomplished, among other factors, by having races all year round allowing the "Poolpote" to grow every race day. Our goal is to disseminate live audio-visual telecasts of our races to racetracks and other authorized off-racetrack sites in North America, the Caribbean and Internationally, having the "Poolpote" as the main wagering product.

As an incentive to the Pick Six wager, the "POOLPOTE" was developed in 1990. It consists of an additonal prize or jackpot to the payoff of the Pick Six accrued and extracted from the total amount of this type of bet. The accumulated prize has reached millionaire proportions, recently climbing to 19 million dollars.

The "POOLPOTE" is the greatest attraction of all bets in Puerto Rico. With a minimum bet of 35 cents, any person can become a millionaire if he/she is the ONLY ONE guessing the six winning horses.

Since its creation, the "POOLPOTE" has distributed a total of $51,261,087.19 on the 58 occasions that a single pool has taken place-since November 11, 1990 to March 4, 2007. On the last date, Mr. Félix Norat won $14.2 Million Dollars tax free, with a bet of $270 dollars, becoming the largest Pool Payment in Puerto Rico's horse racing history and, as far as we know, worldwide. That same year (2007) another lucky winner got the extraordinary amount of $6.2 Million Dollars carrying the "POOLPOTE".

The money allocated to the "POOLPOTE" comes from a percentage extracted from the total amount of the bet in the Pool. The winner receives 73 percent of the accumulated amount when he/she is the ONLY PERSON guessing the six winner horses in the valid races (qualifying races) for the Pool. All the monies earned in the "POOLPOTE" is TAX FREE to Puerto Rico Residents. 

 

During the past two decades, the racing industry has undergone a fundamental transition, the vast majority of wagering is conducted elsewhere other than at the live racing facility. The single most often used source to accomplish this matter is by implementing year round simulcasting.

Camarero Group is fully committed to marketing this unique wagering product outside Puerto Rico and will invest resources in achieving this goal.

Its attraction will be even greater in the Hispanic Communities in the United States which are familiar with the tradition of our horse racing.
