Methods and systems for engaging in enhanced parimutuel wagering and
gaming. In one embodiment, different types of bets can be offered and
processed in the same betting pool on an underlying event, such as a
horse or dog race, a sporting event or a lottery, and the premiums and
payouts of these different types of bets can be determined in the same
betting pool, by configuring an equivalent combination of fundamental
bets for each type of bet, and performing a demand-based valuation of
each of the fundamental bets in the equivalent combination. In another
embodiment, bettors can place bets in the betting pool with limit odds on
the selected outcome of the underlying event. The bets with limit odds
are not filled in whole or in part, unless the final odds on the selected
outcome of the underlying event are equal to or greater than the limit
odds.
