What do you think it is... I know I know what is the odds... Is it 1st and 10 K at the recovered spot or 1st and 10 R...

CANADIAN RULING:
If R's kick is intentional, when K recovers, a new series shall be awarded because the continuity of downs was broken upon R's intentional kick.
If R's kick is not intentional, when K recovers, a new series shall be awarded be K reached the line to gain.
