What is a Dead Heat?

A dead heat is a term used in sports and betting to describe when there are multiple winners in a heat. This means that the competitors finished the event at exactly the same time or achieved the same score, making it impossible to distinguish a clear winner. The prize for the position is then split equally among the tied participants.

Example Calculation 1

Let's assume the following values:

Using the formula:

\[ \text{DHW} = \frac{500.00}{2} = 250.00 \, \text{\$} \]

The Dead Heat Winnings per Person is $250.00.

Example Calculation 2

Let's assume the following values:

Using the formula:

\[ \text{DHW} = \frac{900.00}{3} = 300.00 \, \text{\$} \]

The Dead Heat Winnings per Person is $300.00.
