1.1. These Sportsbook Rules (the 'Sportsbook Rules') form part of the General Terms and are legally binding contract terms between you and us.
1.2. The Sportsbook Rules apply to the markets offered and bets placed via our sportsbook Services (the 'Sportsbook'). Capitalised words used but not defined in the Sportsbook Rules have the meaning given to them in the General Terms (which you should read alongside the Sportsbook Rules). You can also find definitions and explanations of terms used in the Sportsbook Rules terms here .
1.3. The Sportsbook Rules consist of the following:
This Introduction section;
The Sportsbook General Rules set out below; and
The Specific Sports Rules listed below.
1.4. The Sportsbook General Rules apply to all bets and markets on the Sportsbook, although some bets and markets also have Specific Sports Rules applicable to them. For example, in addition to the Sportsbook General Rules, the 'Football' Sports Specific Rules apply to bets placed on soccer markets. If there is any inconsistency between the Specific Sports Rules and the Sportsbook General Rules, the Specific Sports Rules will prevail.
Everything in the Sportsbook Rules is important and has the potential to affect your interests, so please read the Sportsbook General Rules and any Specific Sports Rules affecting the market on which you wish to place a bet in full before you place a bet.
To make it easier for you to understand certain sections we'd like to highlight the following:
How we settle and when we will void bets. The Sportsbook General Rules and Specific Sports Rules contain information about how bets will be settled and when they will be void. The rules vary according to the market, so please ensure to read all relevant rules carefully before you place a bet.
When the amount you can win is limited. There are daily limits on the amounts you can wager and win on the Sportsbook. Please read the Maximum Payouts section below, which explains these in detail.
When we will void bets and adjust winnings for Errors on the Sportsbook. Part B Section 9 of the General Terms explains the general rules about what will happen if an 'Error ', 'Malfunction', or 'Interruption' happens to the Services or Software while you are using them. Examples of Errors that could occur on the Sportsbook, and the actions that we will take in relation to them are explained in detail in the Errors related to the Sportsbook section below.
We will void bets and recover or not pay out winnings if we determine you have been involved in 'suspicious betting'. Part B Section 13 of the General Terms explains the general rules about Prohibited Events, Part B Section 14 of the General Terms explains when we will restrict, suspend or close your Account for Prohibited Events, and Part A Section 11 of the General Terms explains when we will void transactions and recover or not pay out winnings if we discover that you have engaged in any Prohibited Event. For the purposes of the Sportsbook Rules, it is a Prohibited Event if you take part in 'suspicious betting'. We explain what suspicious betting is, and the specific actions we will take if we discover you have taken part in it, in the Suspicious Betting section below. In particular, we will void bets, and recover or not pay out winnings, if we determine you have taken part in suspicious betting.
When we are not responsible for information provided on the Sportsbook. Some information in the Sportsbook, such as sports data feeds, are provided by third parties. We have no control over these data and are not responsible for any inaccuracies in them. Similarly, as set out in Part A Section 23 of the General Terms , we do not guarantee that the Services -- including the Sportsbook -- will be free from Errors , Malfunctions or Interruptions . Please see the Third Party Feeds and Score Displays and Reliance on Information sections below for more information about this.
1. Bet Acceptance
1.1. We are under no obligation to accept any bets on the Sportsbook, and we may refuse to accept any bets or offer reduced stakes for any reason.
1.2. A bet is not accepted until it has been validated by us and shows in the User's bet history (under the heading 'My Bets'). If you are unsure about the validity of a bet, please check the open (pending) bets section on the Website or contact support .
1.3. Unless accepted in Error, once accepted by us, a bet will remain valid and cannot be cancelled by you. It is each User's responsibility to ensure details of the bets placed are correct. Part B Section 9 of the General Terms and the Errors related to the Sportsbook section below explain what will happen if a bet is accepted in Error.
1.4. Should a dispute arise about the acceptance (or lack of acceptance) of any transaction in your Account, the transaction log on our servers or in our databases will determine the matter.
General Rules About Settlement
2.1. If the Specific Sports Rules do not specify how and on what basis a market will be settled, markets will be settled based on the official result of the relevant governing body regardless of any subsequent disqualification or amendment to the result. The exception to this is if an amendment is announced by the relevant data source within 24 hours of the initial settlement to correct an Error made by them in reporting the result, in which case we will resettle the bets as appropriate.
2.2. If no official result of a relevant governing body is available, we will determine the result (acting reasonably) using information from independent sources. In such cases, if any new information relating to the result comes into the public domain within 48 hours of settlement, then we will (acting reasonably) either:
(a) settle or resettle the market in light of this new information; or
(b) wait for further information before deciding whether to settle or resettle the market (for example, if a governing body has announced that it intends to undertake a review or investigation before declaring the official result).
2.3. Except where we have announced that we are waiting for further information before deciding whether to settle or resettle the market, any information that comes into the public domain more than 48 hours after a market has been settled will not be considered (regardless of whether or not such information may have led to a different result).
2.4. If there is any uncertainty about any result or potential result, we will suspend settlement of any related market for an unlimited period until the uncertainty can be resolved to our reasonable satisfaction. We will void any such market if the uncertainty regarding settlement cannot be resolved to our reasonable satisfaction.
Resettlements
2.5. Bets are usually settled shortly after the end of the event in question. We may settle (or part-settle) some bets before the official result is declared (or may increase a User's available balance by the minimum potential winnings of that User on a given bet) purely as a customer service benefit.
2.6. We will resettle a bet if:
(a) the official result is different to the result on which we initially settled the bet; or
(b) the whole market is eventually voided.
2.7. Resettling a bet may lead to amendments being made to the balance of your Account to reflect the changes in bet settlement.
Non-Runners, Withdrawals and Disqualifications
2.8. A 'non-runner' is a selection that is named but does not participate in the specified event.
2.9. Unless otherwise stated in the Specific Sports Rules or elsewhere on the Website, sports bets are accepted on a 'non-runner, no bet' basis. This means that bets on a competitor that is withdrawn prior to the start of an event or does not enter the field of play during the event will be void. We will, where appropriate, apply a Non-Runner Deduction to any winnings from bets on the event's remaining participants.
2.10. The above may apply to selections in Outright markets as well as Proposition markets concerning individual competitors, including markets such as 'goalscorer', 'point scorer', 'runs', 'tryscorer' and 'touchdown scorer' (as available on the Website from time to time). It may also apply to selections included in #OddsOnThat and enhanced odds offer.
2.11. Where specified, certain markets will be offered on an 'all in compete or not' basis. This means that, if a competitor is withdrawn from an event (whether by it pulling out of the event, being suspended or disqualified from the event, or otherwise) before it has taken part in the event, then any bet placed on that competitor will be deemed a losing bet.
2.12. If a competitor is withdrawn, suspended or disqualified from a 'fixed draw' event, we will settle bets on the subsequent odds once the market has been revised without the withdrawn competitor.
2.13. If a competitor participating in an event (once it has officially started) fails to complete that event for any reason, any bet placed on that team or competitor will stand (meaning bets on that competitor will not be void).
Selections Not Offered
2.14. We use reasonable efforts to ensure that potential winning selections for each market are always offered on the Website, however, we do not guarantee that every possible outcome for each market will be offered. If the outcome which ultimately wins is unavailable to you as a selection for any reason (for example, because it is a dynamic market where competitors might enter or leave before the event starts, so we have chosen not to offer it), bets on other selections in the applicable market will stand and will be settled in accordance with the applicable Sportsbook Rules.
2.15. If a match or period of a match ends in a draw and we did not offer a 'draw' selection, then affected bets will be void.
3.1. Bets are accepted up to the 'off' time of the event or a pre-determined time, whichever is earlier.
3.2. Any bet accepted after the betting has closed, or at any other stage where a User could have any indication of the outcome, but the final result or outcome is not known, will be settled at the correct odds at the time the bet was placed (such odds to be determined by us acting reasonably).
3.3. Bets placed after the final event result or outcome is known will be void.
3.4. Should there be a dispute over the 'off' time of an event/market where an official start time is not given by that sport's governing body, then the time that we (acting reasonably) determine the event to have started will govern the settlement of all bets.
4.1. 'Cash Out' is a feature that is offered on various betting markets. Cash Out allows you to amend your original bet on that market and lock in a profit or a loss by settling your bet (or a portion of your bet) early, without having to wait for the event to finish.
4.2. Your request to Cash Out is not guaranteed to be accepted and may be unsuccessful if, for example, the market is suspended or the odds change before your request has been processed.
4.3. If your Cash Out request is successful, a 'success' message will be shown, your bet (or the relevant portion of your bet) will be settled immediately, and any winnings will be returned to your Account equal to the amount shown on the Cash Out button. Note that this includes the original stake (or portion of your stake), and the total amount returned to your Account will be the amount shown on the Cash Out button. For a full Cash Out, the bet is settled, and any subsequent events will have no impact on the amount returned to your Account. For a partial Cash Out, part of your bet is settled, and any subsequent events will only impact on the portion of your bet which you have not Cashed Out.
4.4. If your Cash Out request is unsuccessful, a message will be shown which gives the reason why and a new Cash Out offer may be offered to you.
4.5. Cash Out requests made In-Play may take longer to process because of the In-Play bet delay.
4.6. In-Play betting rules apply on all In-Play bets where Cash Out is available.
4.7. Using Cash Out may mean you will opt out of and no longer be eligible for certain offers. See the terms and conditions of the relevant offer for details.
4.8. On bets when a free bet has been used, Cash Out will be unavailable until the value of your Cash Out is higher than the value of your free bet.
4.9. We will cancel a Cash Out settlement if the selection that has been cashed out on becomes a Non-Runner after the bet has been cashed out. If this happens, as the bet was placed on a Non-Runner, the bet will be void.
5.1. If there are no rules about abandonment, cancellation and/or postponement in any applicable Specific Sports Rules for a particular market, then the following rules will apply.
5.2. In relation to any match, fixture, game, individual event, race or similar: If the event is not completed within 72 hours after the originally scheduled completion date, then all bets on markets for this event will be void, except for bets on any markets that have been unconditionally determined.
5.3. In relation to any tournament, competition or similar: If the event is not completed within 24 hours following the scheduled completion date of the event, then any bets relating to the event will be settled in accordance with the official ruling of the relevant governing body, providing such a decision is given within 90 days after the scheduled completion date. If no official ruling is announced in this 90-day period, then bets on any market relating to this event will be void, except for bets on any markets which have been unconditionally determined. If a market has been part-settled during the 90-day period as a courtesy to Users, we may resettle such part-settled bets at the end of this period, provided we will not give Users a less favourable outcome on their bets as a result of the resettlement.
5.4. If there is no further sporting action in any market that does not contain the selection 'draw' or 'tie', all bets placed after this conclusion of action will be void.
5.5. We will decide (acting reasonably) whether a market relates to a match (or similar) or a tournament (or similar). However, by way of example, the following will apply to the following markets (as may be available on the Website from time to time):
Europa League Outright = tournament;
Champions League group Outright = tournament;
Top Premier League goalscorer = tournament;
Tennis Tournament Outright = tournament; and
Motor race (for example, Grand Prix) = match.
6.1. For any team sport: if the scheduled venue is changed after a bet is placed, all bets will be void only if the new venue is a home ground of the original away team (or in the case of international matches, only if the venue changes to a venue in a different country).
6.2. For all categories or markets other than team sports: if the scheduled venue is changed after a bet is placed, all bets will stand.
6.3. If there is a change in the type of scheduled surface (for example, a hockey match switching from real grass to artificial turf) after a bet is placed, all bets will stand.
7.1. If the scheduled duration of an event is changed after a bet is placed, but before the start of the event, then all bets on the event will be void.
7.2. Some markets refer to the length of time until an occurrence in the event (for example, time of first goal). If an occurrence happens in stoppage or injury time after any regular time period, then it will be deemed to have occurred at the end of the regular time period. For example, if a goal is scored in first half stoppage time in a football match, it will be deemed to have occurred on 45 minutes.
7.3. All bets apply to the relevant full 'regular time' period, including stoppage time. Any extra time and/or penalty shoot-out is not included for the purpose of settlement.
7.4. Any reference in the Sportsbook Rules to a particular number of 'days' means the end of the day local time after the expiry of the specified number of days. For example, if a football match is scheduled for December 1, then a rule that allows the match to be completed within 3 days after the scheduled completion date would mean that the deadline for completion of that match would be 23.59:59 on December 4.
All references to time periods in the Sportsbook Rules relate to the time zone in which the event takes place. For example, a reference to the start time of a football match relates to the local kick-off time.
9.1. If there is more than 1 competitor with the same surname and the selection has not been identified by either first name, team (where applicable), or qualifying odds, the competitor with the lowest advertised odds will be taken as the selection.
9.2. If 2 or more competitors are quoted at the lowest advertised odds then the stake will be divided between them.
9.3. The name/heading of a competition determines what a bet refers to. For example, if you place a bet on 'Italy-Brazil' under the competition name/heading 'Women's World Cup', the bet will apply to the match between Italy and Brazil, which is part of the Women's World Cup.
Unless otherwise stated on the Website, we will settle Outright betting on the player or team that lifts the cup/trophy.
11.1. If any injury news is announced in a market where the number of matches or odds of runners remaining can significantly affect the odds, for example, in 'top goalscorer' or 'top runscorer' markets (as available on the Website from time to time), we will as appropriate either void bets, apply a Non-Runner Deduction, or resettle bets to the next odds offered after the market has been revised due to that injury news.
11.2. This could apply to bets placed between the release of the injury news and the revision of the market in question.
12.1. 'Dead Heat' is a term that describes when there is a tie between 2 or more selections in an event.
12.2. The 'Dead Heat rules' are that, if a Dead Heat between 2 selections is declared on any event, then half the stake is applied to the selection at full odds, and the other half is lost. If more than 2 Dead Heats are declared, the stake is proportioned accordingly.
12.3. Unless otherwise stated in the Specific Sports Rules, Dead Heat rules will apply to bets on a market where there are more winners than expected.
13.1. Unless otherwise stated in any applicable Sports Specific Rules, these markets are determined by adjusting the score of the selected team by the applicable handicap which is offered in respect of that team (this is the 'Handicap', also called the 'Spread'). For example, if team A +10 is selected, 10 points will, for settlement purposes, be added to the score of team A. Where the draw is selected in a Handicap market, the relevant bet will be determined by adjusting the home team's score by the applicable Handicap (for example, if draw - 6 is offered, 6 points will, for settlement purposes, be deducted from the home team's final score and if following such deduction, both teams' scores are the same, the bet will be settled as a winning bet).
13.2. Where only Handicap betting is available, the bet will be settled as a Handicap bet, whether selected or not.
'To qualify' markets (for example, 'to reach the final') will be determined by the team or competitor that progresses, whether or not they take part in the next round or event for which they have qualified. Bets will be settled after the qualifying stage, and any subsequent disqualification or amendment to the result will not count.
15.1. A 'push' describes the result of a bet for which there is no winner or loser as between a User and the Sportsbook. If the result is a push, then the bet is void.
15.2. Markets which may result in a push include Handicap/Spread/Run Line/Points Line markets and Total Points/Goals markets where a selection for the outcome of the event is not offered.
15.3. For example, a Total Goals in the Match market for a football match between Arsenal and Tottenham offers 2 selections: 'Over 2 Goals' and 'Under 2 Goals'. You place a EUR 1 bet on 'Over 2 Goals' and the result of the match is 2-0 for Arsenal. The bet is a push because a selection for the outcome 'Exactly 2 Goals' was not offered for the market, meaning neither you or us could win or lose the bet on this result.
15.4. As another example, a Handicap Betting market for a basketball game between Boston Celtics and Washington Wizards also offers 2 selections: 'Boston Celtics - 10 Points' and 'Washington Wizards + 10 Points'. You place a EUR 1 bet on 'Boston Celtics - 10 Points' and the result of the game is 100-90 points for Boston Celtics. As in the first example, a selection for the outcome was not offered for the market, so the bet is a push.
16.1. A 'multiple bet' (also called an 'accumulator') is one bet made up of multiple legs. Each 'leg' is a selection in an individual event market.
16.2. All multiple bets placed are subject to the Sportsbook Rules applicable to each individual market comprising the legs.
16.3. If any selection in any leg is a non-runner or otherwise void under the applicable Sportsbook Rules (for example, due to an abandoned match), then all bets on that individual leg will be void, and the multiple bet will be adjusted accordingly. For example, a treble including one void leg will become a double. If that void leg means that an individual bet within a multiple bet becomes a single bet, then this single bet will stand.
16.4. Multiple bets combining different selections within the same event will not be accepted when there are related contingencies, unless those selections are chosen through our Bet Builder feature. The rejection of related contingency bets may happen automatically at the bet placement stage.
16.5. Each way and win only markets cannot be combined as part of a multiple bet.
17.1. A 'system bet' is a type of multiple bet that offers every combination of bet (singles, doubles, triples, fourfolds, fivefolds and so on) that is possible for the specified number of selections within the system, effectively giving Users the opportunity to place a series of bets across a number of bet combinations within the same multiple bet.
17.2. Unlike a standard multiple bet (where all of the chosen selections must be successful for the bet to be settled as a winner), system bets allow Users to receive a return on each selection that is successful within a given combination of the bet.
17.3. The number of selections available on a system bet depends on the type of system bet offered for the relevant market.
17.4. For example, you place 1 EUR on 4 football teams to win their matches under a 'Lucky 15' system bet. The 4 chosen selections offer a combination of 15 bets within the system (4 singles, 6 doubles, 4 triples and 1 fourfold) and would return a total of EUR 15 if all combinations were successful. The bets within the system bet are broken down as follows:
4 x single bets (each single consisting of 1 of the selections from the 4 chosen selections):
1. Team A to Win
2. Team B to Win
3. Team C to Win
4. Team D to Win
6 x doubles (each double consisting of 2 selections from the chosen 4 selections):
1. Team A to Win + Team B to Win
2. Team A to Win + Team C to Win
3. Team A to Win + Team D to Win
4. Team B to Win + Team C to Win
5. Team B to Win + Team D to Win
6. Team C to Win + Team D to Win
4 x trebles (each triple consisting of 3 selections from the chosen 4 selections):
1. Team A to Win + Team B to Win + Team C to Win
2. Team A to Win + Team B to Win + Team D to Win
3. Team A to Win + Team C to Win + Team D to Win
4. Team B to Win + Team C to Win + Team D to Win
1 X fourfold (consisting of all 4 chosen selections together):
Team A to Win + Team B to Win + Team C to Win + Team D to Win
18.1. The 'Bet Builder' feature allows you to construct your own bet, using our tools, by combining related bets within a single event.
18.2. When you add legs to your Bet Builder, each selection will display its individual odds. These odds are for customer information only and may not reflect the odds that you will be offered for the Bet Builder bet once you've finalised your selections within the betslip.
18.3. Unlike a standard multiple bet, a Bet Builder bet allows Users to combine selections with related contingencies (bets within single event), meaning the outcome of a selection could affect the probability of the outcomes for the other selections within your Bet Builder bet, and as a result, increase the probability of the bet being successful above the normal odds offered for a multiple bet (where individual odds for each selection are multiplied).
18.4. For example, you attempt to place a multiple bet on a football match between Manchester City and Liverpool at odds of 6.0 with the following 3 selections: 'Liverpool to be Winning at Half Time' (1.5), 'Liverpool to Win' (2.0), and 'Liverpool to Score More than 2 Goals' (2.0). As Liverpool winning at half time would increase the probability of Liverpool winning the match and scoring more than 2 goals (related contingencies), your bet is rejected. However, you then attempt to place a bet on the same selections using Bet Builder. Your bet is accepted and the Bet Builder offers you odds of 4.0 (adjusted to account for the related contingencies).
18.5. If any selection in any leg of a Bet Builder bet is a Non-Runner or otherwise void under the applicable Sportsbook Rules (for example a chosen goalscorer does not take part in a match), then all bets on that individual leg will be void, and the Bet Builder bet payout will be recalculated accordingly. Any remaining legs will stand.
19.1. The '#OddsOnThat' feature allows you to place certain tailored bets on certain events.
19.2. If any competitor who is part of a #OddsOnThat bet does not take any part in the relevant event, then the entire bet will be void.
19.3. Where an #OddsOnThat bet combines related bets within a single event:
(a) if any selection in any leg of the #OddsOnThat bet is a Non-Runner or the leg is otherwise void under the applicable Sportsbook Rules (for example a chosen goalscorer does not take part in a match), then all bets on that #OddsOnThat will be void; and
(b) all legs making up the bet must win for the bet to be settled as a winning bet. Otherwise, the entire bet will be settled as a losing bet. For example, you place an #OddsOnThat bet which consists of 2 selections: 'Manchester City to Win' and 'Erling Haaland to Score'. The probability of Erling Haaland scoring is related to Manchester City winning, so the bet will be settled as a losing bet if, despite Erling Haaland scoring a goal, Manchester City fails to win the match.
19.4. In addition to the specific rules about #OddsOnThat set out above and elsewhere in the Sportsbook Rules, all other settlement rules in the Sportsbook Rules apply to the settlement of bets placed via #OddsOnThat (unless they contradict or conflict with the #OddsOnThat specific rules, in which case, the #OddsOnThat specific rules will take precedence).
20.1. 'Acca Edge' applies to Sportsbook (fixed odds) accumulator bets only.
20.2. Not available for each-way accumulators, SP accumulators, bets placed with free bet tokens or permutation multiples (Yankee, Lucky 15 etc.)
20.3. Not available for each-way accumulators, SP accumulators, bets placed with free bet tokens or permutation multiples (Yankee, Lucky 15 etc.)
20.4. Stakes are returned as cash.
20.5. Acca Edge must be ticked at the time of bet placement and you must receive confirmation from Betfair that it has been "applied".
20.6. You acknowledge that the odds with Acca Edge may be different from the odds of the bet without Acca Edge.
20.7. Acca Edge will become void if any leg is settled void or any leg is subject to a Dead Heat reduction. In such circumstances the bet will revert to a normal accumulator bet without the Acca Edge and be priced based on the original leg prices taken at bet placement.
20.8. Bets placed with Acca Edge are available for Cash Out, however any Cash Out (partial or full) will render Acca Edge void.
20.9. We may suspend or disable the Acca Edge feature at any time.
20.10. 'Each Way Edge' applies to Sportsbook (fixed odds) Each Way singles only on selected (determined by us) Horse Races.
20.11. Not available for multiples or SP singles.
20.12. At the time of placement the odds and place terms must be updated in the betslip, highlighted in yellow, and the Each Way Edge applied message in view. Successful placement of the bet with Each Way Edge applied will be included in the bet receipt.
20.13. Acca Edge only applies if one leg lets you down.
20.14. You acknowledge that the odds and place terms with Each Way Edge applied vary from the odds of the bet without Each Way Edge.
20.15. Bets placed with Each Way Edge are eligible for Cash Out if the Cash Out icon is shown, subject to the standard Cash Out terms.
20.16. If the number of non-runners results in a change in the standard each way terms, then the terms of the Each Way Edge bet will also be altered to reflect this. In summary: An EW Edge bet is an offset to normal EW terms, so if the EW terms on the market change after a withdrawal, the EW Edge terms can change too. E.g. if there is a market with 3 places @ 1/5 and EW Edge is used to take 4 places. If the market changes to 2 places @ 1/4 after a withdrawal, the EW Edge bet has terms of 3 places @ ¼. If the market place fraction changes (e.g. market changes from 3 @ 1/4 to 3 @ 1/5) then the fraction changes for EW Edge bets too. If an EW Edge bet reverts to Win only (e.g. -1 offset on a 3 place market when the market changes to 2 places), the price after EW Edge will still be honoured (but with rule4s applied if relevant). If the market drops to Win only, positive EW Edges are still EW bets.
20.17. Bets placed with Each Way Edge applied are not eligible for Best Odds Guaranteed.
20.18. We may suspend or disable the Each Way Edge feature at any time.
21.1. 'In-Play' is betting that takes place after an event has started and up to its conclusion.
21.2. A 'pre-event market' is a market that we do not intend to offer after an event starts or for the duration of an event. A pre-event market may or may not be turned In-Play.
21.3. If a pre-event market is not scheduled to be turned In-Play, and we fail to suspend the market at the time the event starts, then:
(a) if the event has a scheduled 'off' time, all bets placed after that scheduled 'off' time will be void; and
(b) if the event does not have a scheduled 'off' time, we will use reasonable efforts to ascertain the time of the actual 'off', and all bets after the time of the 'off' determined by us (acting reasonably) will be void.
21.4. We will use reasonable efforts to suspend pre-event markets that are scheduled to be turned In-Play at the start of and for the duration of the event. However, we do not guarantee that such markets will be suspended at the relevant time.
21.5. In relation to pre-event markets which are scheduled to be turned In-Play:
(a) we will use reasonable efforts to turn such markets In-Play at the time of the 'off' and to suspend such markets on the occurrence of a significant occurrence (such as a goal/point being scored). However, we do not guarantee that such markets will be suspended and turned In-Play at the time of the 'off'.
(b) if we fail to suspend the market at the time of the 'off' and the market is not turned In-Play at any time during the event, all bets after the scheduled time of the 'off' will be void unless it can be established that the bet was placed before the official 'off' time or the actual time of the 'off'. If the event does not have a scheduled 'off' time, we will use reasonable efforts to ascertain the time of the actual 'off', and all bets after the time of the 'off' determined by us (acting reasonably) will be void; and
(c) if we fail to suspend the market at the time of the 'off', but the market is turned In-Play at a later time during the event, all bets placed after the time of the 'off' will stand. However, we will where appropriate adjust the odds in order to settle the bets in accordance with the correct odds at the time on which the relevant bet was placed (such odds to be determined by us, acting reasonably).
21.6. We will where appropriate part-suspend or fully suspend outcomes/selections in a Sportsbook market that has been turned In-Play (for example, if a significant occurrence happens during the event, such as a goal or point being scored).
21.7. If we accept a bet on an In-Play market for which the outcome has already been determined, then that bet will be void.
21.8. For the purposes of In-Play betting, you should be aware that transmissions described as 'live' by some broadcasters may actually be delayed or pre-recorded. The extent of any delay may vary depending on the setup through which you receive pictures or data. Please also be aware that, for operational reasons, bet requests made In-Play may take slightly longer to process.
21.9. Users are responsible for managing their In-Play bets at all times.
22.1. Any bets for which we offer enhanced odds will be settled on the basis of normal time and stoppage time (that is to say, excluding any extra time, penalty shoot-outs or similar) unless otherwise specified in the relevant bet or bet rules.
22.2. Unless otherwise stated on the Website, bets for which enhanced odds are offered will be governed by the settlement rules as set out in the Sportsbook Rules.

24.1. Part B Section 11 of the General Terms explains what Suspicious Betting is, and Part B Section 10 of the General Terms explains that involvement with any circumstance of Suspicious Betting is Unacceptable Conduct.
24.2. It is a Prohibited Event to pursue Unacceptable Conduct whilst using the Sportsbook.
24.3. As set out in the General Terms, you must reasonably assist us with any investigation into Prohibited Events (including by providing any information we reasonably request). For example, if we suspect that bets may have been placed robotically or automatically using Prohibited Tools and Services , we may require you to provide reasonable evidence that each bet was placed manually by you via your Account.
24.4. Part B Section 14 of the General Terms explains when we will restrict, suspend or close your Account for Prohibited Events, and Part A Section 11 of the General Terms explains when we will void transactions and recover or not pay out winnings if we discover that you have engaged in any Prohibited Event.
24.5. We take proactive measures to detect, investigate and prevent suspicious betting and other Prohibited Events on the Sportsbook, using a variety of tools and methodologies.
25.1. We are a member of the International Betting Integrity Association ('IBIA'), a non-profit making organisation that monitors irregular betting patterns and possible instances of event manipulation. As part of that membership, we are a full participant in its early warning system which is geared towards identifying any suspicious betting behaviour.
25.2. If we receive a warning from IBIA we will:
(a) suspend the offering of the relevant event or series of events in any of its markets; and
(b) delay payment on any event or series of events in any of its markets (subject to the limits under applicable law),
25.3. until the integrity of such event or series of events has been confirmed by the relevant sports federation via IBIA.
25.4. If active event manipulation is confirmed as having taken place on any event or series of events by IBIA, then, acting in conjunction with the appropriate sports governing bodies, we will void or otherwise settle in accordance with IBIA guidance any bets placed on such events by any individual identified by IBIA as having possessed insider betting knowledge or information and/or by any other individual who in our reasonable opinion is connected to, acting in conjunction with or in any way involved with such individual.
26.1. Part B Section 9 of the General Terms explains what will happen if an 'Error ', 'Malfunction' , or 'Interruption' happens to the Services or Software while you are using them.
26.2. Examples of Errors that could occur in connection with the Sportsbook include:
(a) technical issues, such as bets being accepted during technical problems when they would otherwise not have been accepted;
(b) the presence of incorrect information, for example, bets on markets and events containing incorrect participants;
(c) bets being offered at odds that reflect an incorrect score;
(d) bets being offered for already determined outcomes; and
(e) incorrect settlement, being where bets were settled incorrectly (for example on the wrong result).
26.3. In addition to the actions described in Part B Section 10 of the General Terms, we will take the following actions if any of the following Errors occur in connection with the Sportsbook:
26.4. Bet odds/terms. If, as a result of an Error, a bet on the Sportsbook is accepted that is at odds and/or is on terms that are either:
(a) significantly different from those available in the general betting market at the time the bet was made; or
(b) clearly incorrect given the chance of the event occurring at the time the bet was made, including, in either case, because the bet was placed after the start of an event because the market was not displaying or reflecting In-Play status, or because of any other reason, then all bets will stand but we will settle winning bets at the correct odds (as determined by us acting reasonably).
26.5. Handicap markets. If an Error is made in Handicap setup, for example, Handicap reads as - instead of + or vice versa on any of our events, either for In-Play or pre-match betting, we will settle bets at the correct Handicap at the time at which the bet was placed (as determined by us acting reasonably).
26.6. Each way bets. If, in Error, an each way bet is offered in a market when the pricing of the market clearly indicates that it should not have been, we will settle this bet as win only. Should the selection be part of an each way multiple bet, the entire multiple bet will be settled as win only.
26.7. Multiple bets. If a multiple bet with related contingencies is taken in Error, we will settle the individual bet combinations that include 2 or more of the related contingency selections as single bets. If, in Error, we accept a multiple bet which combines 'each way' and 'win only' markets, all each way bets which are included within the multiple bet will be settled as win only bets.
26.8. #OddsOnThat. Bets placed via #OddsOnThat will be void if there was a wording or pricing Error in the setup when you placed it. In such circumstances, we will subsequently offer the #OddsOnThat bet with the correct wording or pricing, so that you can place the bet again.
26.9. Enhanced odds. We will void any bet with enhanced odds if the enhanced odds were intended to apply to pre-match bets only, and we accepted the bet in Error, at its enhanced odds, after the relevant event started. If there is an Error in the wording or pricing for an enhanced bet, we will, in accordance with the applicable settlement rules set out in the Sportsbook, settle the bet at the odds at which we intended to offer and/or pursuant to the wording which was clearly intended to relate to, the relevant bet.
27.1. The current score, time elapsed, video and other sports data provided on the Website is sourced from live feeds provided by third parties and may be subject to a time delay and/or be inaccurate. If you rely on this third party data to make decisions about and place bets, you do so entirely at your own risk, as we do not have control over it. Our rules for bet settlement still apply, but, except as set out in Part B Section 18.1 of the General Terms , we are not responsible for any discrepancy between such information as displayed on the Website and how a bet is settled, because it is an Event Beyond Our Control.
27.2. We also use third party sports data to determine the settlement of certain markets.
28.1. As set out in Part A Section 23 of the General Terms, we do not guarantee which Games or other Services will be available via the Website at any time, or that the Services or Software will be free from Errors, Malfunctions or Interruptions. The following are some examples of how this applies in relation to the Sportsbook:
(a) we do not guarantee that information provided on the Sportsbook, such as the posting of odds, runners, times, scores, results or general statistics, will be free from Errors;
(b) any results or scores you may be advised of by one of our customer support representatives (for example, during betting In-Play) are provided for guidance purposes only;
(c) we may decide to suspend betting on a market at any time (even if such suspension is earlier than anticipated by the applicable Sportsbook Rules); and
(d) in the interests of maintaining integrity and fairness in the markets, we may also void certain bets in a market or void a whole market in its entirety in accordance Part B Section 10 of the General Terms.
28.2. This does not affect our responsibility under Part B Section 21.1 of the General Terms , or the liability provisions set out in Part A Section 26 of the General Terms .
The terms 'all in compete or not' and 'non-runner' are defined here .
The term 'competitor' means a player, team or other individual or organisation (such as TV show contestants, politicians, and political parties) competing in an event. A reference to an 'individual 'competitor' excludes teams and organisations in the context it is used (a market describing individual achievement in an event, for example).
The term 'Dead Heat' is defined here .
The terms 'Handicap' and 'Spread' are defined here .
A '2-Way' (also known as a 'Head-to-Head') is a bet on a market with two possible outcomes of an event. A draw is not offered as a selection on any market available for a 2-Way bet, meaning a draw result will always void a 2-Way bet.
A '3-Way' is a bet on a market with three possible outcomes of an event. A draw is offered as a selection for a 3-Way bet.
The terms 'In-Play' betting and 'pre-event market' are defined here .
The terms 'leg' and 'multiple bet' are defined here .
The term 'market' means a betting market that offers odds for, and enables you to bet on, an outcome relating to an event. We typically offer multiple markets for each event.
A 'Moneyline' bet is wager that one team or individual will defeat another (a 'to win' bet).
An 'Outright' bet is a wager placed on the outcome of an entire league or competition as opposed to a single bet on an individual game or event.
A 'Proposition' bet is a wager placed on a specific outcome within an event that is not directly related to the result of the event.
The term 'push' is defined here .
The term 'related contingency' means where the outcome of one event is likely to affect the odds on the outcome of another event.
If we 'resettle' a bet, this means we change the status of a settled bet. For example, changing a losing bet to a winning bet or changing a winning bet to a voided bet.
When we 'settle' a bet, we determine whether your bet is a winning bet, a losing bet, or a voided bet.
A 'Non-Runner Deduction' (known in UK horseracing as a 'Tattersalls Rule4(c)') is a deduction applied to winnings earned from an event which declares a non-runner (after the odds have been fixed for the relevant market) due to the remaining competitors' chances of winning being affected by the reduced number of competitors taking part in the event. The deduction adjusts every 1.00 unit of currency won to reflect the odds of a selection following the withdrawal of the non-runner from the relevant event. The following table sets out the percentages applied for the deduction based on the odds offered for the non-runner prior to its withdrawal:
Odds of selection Deduction Odds of selection Deduction
1/9 or shorter 0.90 6/5 to evens 0.45
2/11 to 2/17 0.85 6/4 to 5/4 0.40
1/4 to 1/5 0.80 7/4 to 13/8 0.35
3/10 to 2/7 0.75 9/4 to 15/8 0.30
2/5 to 1/3 0.70 3/1 to 5/2 0.25
8/15 to 4/9 0.65 4/1 to 10/3 0.20
8/13 to 4/7 0.60 11/2 to 9/2 0.15
4/5 to 4/6 0.55 9/1 to 6/1 0.10
20/21 to 5/6 0.50 14/1 to 10/1 0.05
ver 14/1 No deduction
When a market is 'unconditionally determined' it means the outcome is already known. For example, if in a football match you bet on who scores the first goal, and the first goal is scored, but then the match is abandoned and replayed at a date more than 3 days later, then your bet will be settled because this event in the game happened and was confirmed. However, bets placed on the match's final result would be void.
An 'unsettled' bet is one which has not yet been settled or paid out.
If we 'void' a bet, this means that your bet has been cancelled. You will not receive any winnings on the bet and your stake will be returned.

1.9.1. Money Line bets will be settled according to the 4.5 Innings Rule;

3.1. Pitcher Markets: if the listed pitcher does not start the game.
3.2. Batter Markets (Hits, Runs, etc.): if the listed player does not record a plate appearance.
3.3. To Hit a Home Run & Home Run / Game Winner multiple bet: listed players must record at least 1 plate appearance for bets to stand. If listed players do not record a plate appearance, bets on that player will be void. Listed pitchers have no bearing on this market.
3.4. Result of Plate Appearance: listed players must record the relevant plate appearance for bets to stand. If a listed player does not record a plate appearance, bets on that player will be void. If a player is substituted out of the game between plate appearances, bets on plate appearances that have already occurred will stand. However, bets on future plate appearance markets will be voided. For settlement purposes, hit by pitches ("HBP") will be settled as a walk or HBP. A fielder's choice, catcher's interference, or reach on error will all be settled as an "other outcome." A pitch must be thrown in the plate appearance for bets to be Action. If no pitch is thrown in the plate appearance (i.e., the pitching team elects to intentionally walk the batter before any pitches are thrown) bets on the market will be void. This will not, however, impact other markets which are impacted by the result (i.e., the intentional walk results in an RBI for the batter).
3.5. To Hit First Home Run: listed players must record at least 1 plate appearance for bets to stand. If a listed position player does not record a plate appearance, bets on that player will be void. If a non-listed player is ruled the winner, bets on listed qualified players are Action. If no Home Runs are hit in the game, bets will be settled with "No Home Run" as the winning selection.
3.6. To Hit Next Home Run: listed position players must record at least 1 plate appearance for bets to stand. If a listed position player does not record a plate appearance, bets on that player will be void. Once a player has recorded a plate appearance, bets made on that player for all subsequent indices (player to Hit 3rd Home Run, 4th Home Run, etc.) will stand regardless of the number of plate appearances that the player ultimately records in the game. In the event there is no "Next Home Run", all bets placed on that index will be void. For example, bets placed on a "Player to hit 4th Home Run" market will be void in a game where only 3 Home Runs are hit.
3.7. Player to Record a Hit Markets: listed players must record at least 1 plate appearance for bets to stand. If a listed player does not record a plate appearance, bets on that player will be void. Once a player has recorded a plate appearance, bets on all subsequent hits markets (2+ hits, 3+ hits, etc.) will stand regardless of the number of plate appearances that player ultimately records in the game.
3.8. To Record Total Bases: total bases are recorded through hits. They do not include walks, HBPs, reach on errors, or fielder's choices.

3.13. Player Performance Multiples: for pitchers, the listed pitcher must start for bets to stand. Bets will stand regardless of a change in status to the opposing listed pitcher. For batters, the listed player must record at least 1 plate appearance for bets to stand. If listed players do not record a plate appearance, bets on that player will be void. A change to the status of either listed pitcher will have no bearing on the settlement of any batter-specific player multiple bet.
3.14. Result of First Pitch: settled based on the first pitch thrown in the listed half inning. A change to the status of either listed pitcher, or to either line-up, will have no bearing on the settlement of this market. For settlement purposes, a reach on error, catcher's interference, or a foul ball that results in an out will be ruled as an "other outcome." Batted balls that result in the plate appearance ending (ex. hits/outs) will not be regarded as strikes for the purposes of settlement. If a pitcher or batter violation results in an automatic ball or strike to begin the at-bat, the market will be settled based on the outcome of the violation (for example, if a pitcher violation results in an automatic ball to start the at-bat, 'Ball' will be settled as the winning selection).
3.15. Method of First Hit: settled based on the method by which the first hit of the game (for either team) occurs. A change to the status of either listed pitcher will have no bearing on the settlement of this market. If a listed batter is not in the starting line-up, bets on that batter will be void.
3.16. 3 Up, 3 Down: this occurs when only 3 batters come to the plate and record official plate appearances during the listed half-inning. It is possible for players to reach base and for a "3 Up, 3 Down" to still occur (e.g., runner caught stealing, double play, etc.).
3.17. Pitch Velocity: pitch velocity markets will be settled according to official results as published by MLB's Statcast. Should a batter or pitcher violation occur before a pitch is thrown in the plate appearance, bets will be settled based on the first pitch thrown following the violation. For starting pitcher velocity markets, the listed batter vs. pitcher matchup must occur for bets to have Action. For relief pitcher velocity markets, the listed batter vs. pitcher matchup must occur in the listed inning for bets to have Action.
3.18. Pitches Per Plate Appearance: automatic balls/strikes that result from pitcher/batter violations will count as pitches. Markets will be void should an intentional walk be issued at any point prior to or during the plate appearance. If the listed plate appearance does not occur, bets on that market will be voided.
3.19. Batted Ball Exit Velocity: batted ball exit velocity markets will be settled according to official results as published by MLB's Statcast.
3.20. Distance of Home Run: distance of home run markets will be settled according to official results as published by MLB's Statcast.

4.2. Regular Season Player Totals (Over/Under): batters must record at least 1 MLB regular season plate appearance and pitchers must face at least 1 MLB hitter during the regular season for bets to have action. Should these requirements not be met, bets will be void.
4.3. Regular Season Win Totals: a team must play at least 98% of games originally scheduled (as of Opening Day of the regular season) for bets to stand, unless the outcome has previously been unequivocally determined. For example, in a shortened 60 game season, at least 59 games must be played for bets to stand (unless previously unequivocally determined). In a 162 game season, 159 games must be played for bets to stand (unless previously unequivocally determined).
4.4. Regular Season Specials: All other regular season specials, unless otherwise stated, will be settled should teams play at least 50% of regular season games originally scheduled (as of Opening Day of the regular season). Dead Heat rules apply if multiple players tie for the league lead. If less than 50% of regular season games are played (as scheduled on Opening Day of the regular season), all regular season specials bets (unless otherwise stated) will be void regardless of whether they have been determined or not. If a player is listed under a market for a particular league or team, they will be deemed a player in that league or team for the purpose of the result regardless of any inter-league inter-team trade which may occur.
4.5. Daily Slate Specials: all games scheduled to be played on the listed date must be played to completion (an official result) for bets to stand, unless the outcome has been unequivocally determined. For example, if 15 games are scheduled on a given day, and one of the games is postponed and rescheduled to take place on a later date due to adverse weather, markets which have been unequivocally determined prior to the postponement would be settled (for example, "Will Any Player Hit a Grand Slam" would be settled if a Grand Slam was hit in one of the other games). However, markets affected by the postponement would be voided (for example, "1+ Home Runs to be Hit in All Games" or "All Teams to Score 2+ Runs").
4.6. Daily Strikeout Specials: for head-to-head strikeout matchups, both listed pitchers must start the game for bets on the matchup to stand. If the 2 listed pitchers record the same number of strikeouts, bets on the matchup will be void. For daily specials about which listed pitcher will record the most strikeouts on a given day, bets on any listed pitcher that does not start will be voided and Dead Heat rules will apply if multiple starting pitchers tie for the daily lead.
4.7. Regular Season Series Winner: games must be played within the originally scheduled series dates to be counted towards series settlement. Series bets will be void if affected by postponed games that take place after the originally scheduled series end date unless the outcome has been unequivocally determined prior to the interruption of the series. For any series scheduled to be an even number of games (for example, a 4 game series), either 2-Way bets or 3-Way bets (with "Series Tied" as a third possible selection) may be available. If 2-way bets are available, bets on that market will be void if the teams split the series. If 3-Way bets are available, bets on the "Series Tied" option will be settled as winners if the teams split the series.
4.8. Playoff Statistical Leader Specials: if multiple players tie for the lead of a statistical category (e.g., "Player to Record Most Hits", "Player to Record Most Home Runs", etc.), the market will be settled as a Dead Heat. Batters must record at least 1 MLB plate appearance and pitchers must face at least 1 MLB hitter during the listed timeframe for bets to have Action. Should these requirements not be met, bets will be void.
4.9. Live Specials: an official no-hit game occurs when a pitcher (or pitchers) allows no hits during the entire course of a game, which consists of at least 9 innings (minimum 27 outs) thrown by the pitcher(s). For a perfect game, the pitcher(s) must comply with all requirements of the no-hitter, but also not allow any baserunners to reach via walk, HBP, uncaught third strikes, catcher's or fielder's interference, or fielding errors. No-hitters and perfect games will be settled regardless of the number of pitchers used by the relevant team. For live pitcher specials, all bets will stand if the listed pitcher starts the game.

4.15. MLB Draft:
4.15.1. The official draft results on mlb.com will be used for settlement purposes.
4.15.2. For "over/under draft position" markets, undrafted players are assigned the draft position that comes after the last drafted player.
4.15.3. For over/under draft position markets under means the player is chosen with a pick that is less than the designated number and over would be after that designated number. For example, for a market of 'Player A over/under draft position 3.5', if Player A is picked with the second pick of the draft than under bets would win and over bets lose.

1.3. The above applies regardless of any subsequent disqualification or amendment to the result (except if an amendment is announced by the relevant data source within 24 hours of the initial settlement of the relevant market in order to correct an Error in reporting the result, in which case we will resettle the bets as appropriate).
1.4. If a bet is placed after the relevant result or outcome is known, then the bet will be void.
All stage betting will be settled in accordance with the results of the relevant governing body at the time of the ceremony. This is regardless of whether the stage has been shortened due to adverse weather conditions or any other reason.
If the named rider fails to start the stage, all bets on that rider will be void. If the named rider is involved in a Dead Heat for first place in any stage, this will count as a stage win.
For stage Head-to-Head markets, at least one rider must finish the stage for bets to stand.
For overall Head-to-Head markets, if both riders retire during the same stage, then this market will be settled as a Dead Heat. If either rider fails to start the race, all bets will be void. If both riders fail to start a subsequent stage for any reason, the winner is the rider with the highest position after the previous stage. Unless otherwise stated, Dead Heat rules will apply.
The following rules include reasons for voiding bets.
For doubles and triples involving highest checkout, most 180s and win/loss of match, each aspect of the bet must have been won outright for the bet to be deemed successful (and settled as a winning bet). For the avoidance of doubt, the bet will be deemed unsuccessful (and settled as a losing bet) if: (i) the selected player's highest checkout is the same as his/her opponent, (ii) the selected player scores the same number of 180s as his/her opponent and/or (iii) the match is tied.
For match odds markets, if a match starts but is not completed, the player progressing to the next round will be deemed the winner (or, in the case of the final, the player declared the winner). For other markets, if a match is not completed for any reason, then bets will be void unless the market has been unconditionally determined.
If the match is not completed, then all bets are void.
All scheduled matches must take place, otherwise all bets are void.
The following rules include reasons for voiding bets.
1.1. Bets will be settled based on the official results of the match/tournament/race (following any extension of normal time, where required, unless otherwise specified) as declared by the official organiser, administrator or governing body on their website. All decisions of the relevant esports officials will stand.
1.2. A map is deemed to have started as soon as the game clock starts, or either team or player takes a game action relating to that map, including picks, bans and weapon purchases.
1.3. If an event involves the same two players or teams playing multiple games or maps, and one or more games or maps are not played because the result of the event has already been determined, bets on such games or maps are void.
1.4. If the scheduled number of rounds or maps is changed, or if markets are erroneously offered based on a different number of rounds or maps from the actually scheduled number, bets will be void except those on the Match Odds (provided an official result is declared) and First Map markets.
1.5. Matches can be played best of 1, 2, 3 or 5 maps depending on the esport and tournament. The winner of the match (Match Odds) is based on who wins more maps. A draw will occur if each team win an equal number of maps.
1.6. If a team name changes (usually, but not limited to, sponsorship changes) but the roster or team members remain the same, all bets will stand.
1.7. Dates and start times are shown for information purposes only.
2.1. If an event is cancelled, postponed, abandoned or interrupted, and not completed within 24 hours of the original start time, bets on that event will be void, except for those that have been unconditionally determined. However, bets on games or maps that are completed within 24 hours will be settled normally, even if other games or maps that were supposed to be part of the same matchup are cancelled or further postponed.
2.2. We may, in our absolute discretion, void any bets placed after the earlier of the official start time (as published on the relevant official website) or the actual start time, if started early. This rule does not apply to In-Play betting.
3.1. If any map is not played or is awarded to one player or team by walkover, retirement, disqualification or default without play having been completed, bets on that map and on the matchup as a whole will be void. Bets relating only to maps or matches that are completed will stand.
3.2. If there is a replacement player or 'stand-in' for any team in a race, tournament or match, all bets will stand.
3.3. If a player of an individual esport (i.e. not a team event) withdraws prior to the start of their first race or match, all bets on that player will be void.
We make every effort to ensure that no errors are made in listing esports player and team names. All bets will stand where it is reasonably practicable that the misspelled player/team name refers to the correct player/team.
5.1. If a race, match or map is officially determined to be a draw due to a connectivity or technical issue(or similar reason), then all undecided markets will be void.
5.2. If a race, match or map is stopped and restarted from the beginning with the approval of the relevant administrator or official due to connectivity or technical issues which are not player related, then all undecided markets will be void.
If a team surrenders, bets will be settled as follows:
For bets involving the map winner, the winning team is the team that did not surrender.
Bets involving dragons, barons, Roshans, barracks and kills will be settled based on the situation at the time the surrender takes place.
Bets involving towers and inhibitors will be settled as if the winning team had destroyed the minimum number of additional towers and/or inhibitors theoretically required to win the game normally from the position when the surrender occurred.
If a draw occurs, where we did not offer a 'draw' selection, then affected bets will be void. Dead heat rules do not apply.
A handicap in esports can be maps or any other counting measures related to the match. Handicap markets for Counter Strike matches refer to the handicap of rounds played.
In a match involving only two teams/players, both teams/players must take part in the tournament for bets to stand. If both teams/players progress to the same round of the tournament, all bets will be void.
Bets will be settled based on the team that achieves the first kill in the relevant map.
Bets will be settled based on which team kills the first dragon/baron in the relevant map. If no dragon/baron is killed, bets will be void.
Bets will be settled based on which team records the most kills in the relevant map. If teams are tied on the same number of kills, bets will be void.
13.1. All destroyed towers will count as having been destroyed by the opposing team even if the last hit was from a minion.
13.2. Bets on the First Inhibitor will be settled based on which team destroys the first inhibitor in the relevant map.
13.3. All destroyed inhibitors will count as having been destroyed by the opposing team even if the last hit was from a minion. For bets involving the number of inhibitors destroyed, each of the six inhibitors will count only once, even if it is destroyed, has respawned and is destroyed again. For bets involving the next inhibitor destroyed, each destruction of an inhibitor will count separately, even if it has respawned and is being destroyed for a second or subsequent time.
13.4. For bets involving the next team to score a particular objective or the team to score the most of a particular objective, where a 'neither' or 'draw' option is offered and is the winning outcome, bets on either team are losers. Where no such selection is offered and neither team is a winner, all bets on the market are void.
13.5. Where one team surrenders, bets stand and are settled as follows:
13.5.1. For bets involving the map winner, the winning team is the team that did not surrender.
13.5.2. Bets involving dragons, barons and kills are settled based on the situation at the time the surrender takes place.
13.5.3. Bets involving towers and inhibitors are settled based solely on the number of towers and inhibitors destroyed by the winning team during the course of the map before surrender. No additional towers or inhibitors are deemed to have been destroyed, regardless of what would have been theoretically required to win the game normally from that position.
13.5.4. Towers Example: If at surrender, the winning team destroyed 4 towers (e.g., all Tier 1 and 1 Tier 2), the total is 4, with no addition of Tier 3 or Tier 4 towers, even if those would have been needed to win.
14.1. All destroyed towers will count as having been destroyed by the opposing team, even if the last hit was from a minion.
14.2. All destroyed barracks will count as having been destroyed by the opposing team, even if the last hit was from a minion. The ranged and melee barracks in each pair count as separate barracks so that each team has a total of six barracks.
14.3. For bets on First Blood, the broadcast or official API score must register the kill as 'First Blood'. If, for example, a kill is denied by a teammate, it may not be counted as 'First Blood' (regardless of whether it is registered as a kill on the broadcast kill counter), in which case it will not count as 'First Blood' for bet settlement purposes.
14.4. The team that scores the last hit on Roshan as determined by the broadcast or game API if available is deemed to have slain Roshan, regardless of the player who picks up the aegis of the immortal.
14.5. Bets on the First Aegis market will be settled based on which team picks up the first aegis of the respective map. If the aegis is not picked up at all in a map, bets will be void.
14.6. Where one team surrenders, bets stand and are settled as follows:
14.6.1. For bets involving the map winner, the winning team is the team that did not surrender.
14.6.2. Bets involving Roshans, barracks and kills are settled based on the situation at the time the surrender takes place.
14.6.3. Bets involving towers are settled based only on the towers destroyed during the course of the map before surrender. Towers that would have needed to be destroyed to win the game normally, but were not destroyed, will not be counted in the total. For example, if the winning team has destroyed all tier 1 towers and one tier 2 tower before the surrender, only those towers (four in total) will be counted, and no additional towers will be deemed destroyed.
Most map bets are based on the scheduled number of rounds (usually best of 30), excluding extra rounds played in the event of a draw. If, however, a Map Winner market is offered without a 'draw' selection, bets will be settled in favour of the overall winner of the map (including extra time if played).
FIFA/EA Sports FC
Bets will be settled based on regular time only, inclusive of injury time. Extra time and penalties do not count.
Bets will be settled based on regular time only, inclusive of injury time. Should a draw occur, bets are void.
A double chance bet allows you to cover two of the three possible outcomes in the match with one bet. 'Home team and draw' is settled as a winner if the home team wins or draws the match. 'Away team and draw' is settled as a winner if the away team wins or draws the match. 'Home team and away team' is settled as a winner if the home team or the away team wins the match.
Bets are settled based on the official broadcast of the game by the publisher or event organiser. Where the broadcast shows a counter of rounds won, kills, dragons, towers etc., this will generally be used to settle relevant bets. If the result of a bet is unclear from the broadcast, or if there is no broadcast, then the statistics API for the game will be used where available.
20.1. In the case of indexed or numbered markets (such as the winner of a specific round in Counter Strike 2, or the team to score a particular numbered kill in League of Legends or DOTA2), the index determines the objective that counts. Words such as "next" in the market name are not guaranteed to be correct, as broadcasts may be delayed and we may not always advance the index precisely when an objective is scored or a round completed. All bets are therefore settled on the particular numbered round or objective specified, regardless of any other wording in the market name or its timing in relation to when the bet was placed.
20.2. If the scheduled number of rounds or maps is changed, or if markets are erroneously offered based on a different number of rounds or maps from the actually scheduled number, then bets on the winning margin (including handicap), total rounds / maps, correct scores etc. are void and stakes refunded. Map winner and matchup winner bets stand.
20.3. If any map is not played or is awarded to one player or team by walkover or default without play having commenced, all bets on that map and on the matchup as a whole are void and stakes refunded. Bets relating only to maps that are played stand. A map is deemed to have started as soon as the game clock starts or either team or player takes a game action relating to that map, including picks, bans and weapon purchases.
The following rules include reasons for voiding bets.
Bets will be settled depending on whether or not the FTSE100 finishes "Up", stays the same or finishes "Down" for the relevant period. The market will be settled based on the price change of the FTSE100. The price change will be measured using the first price stamp of the period, and then the first price stamp of the close time of the period, with all price stamps being taken from Bloomberg. For periods ending at the close of the day's trading, the official closing price will be used and not the first price stamp of the period close time.
Bets will be settled depending on the value of the UK Base Rate (the "Rate") after the next scheduled Bank of England (MPC) meeting. If a Rate change is announced before the scheduled meeting and the scheduled meeting goes ahead, Betfair will settle this market on what the Rate is immediately after the scheduled meeting. If a Rate change is announced before the scheduled meeting and the scheduled meeting is cancelled (or does not take place at the scheduled time and date), Betfair will void all bets that are matched after the time of the Rate change announcement and will settle this market on the newly announced Rate. If the Rate percentage announced is in any increment other than the standard (i.e. x.00, x.25, x.50 or x.75), Betfair will void this market (for example, 4.33% will result in the market being void).
The following rules include reasons for voiding bets.
1.1. Bets will be settled according to the result declared by the relevant governing body at the end of the match. In the absence of consistent, independent evidence or in the presence of significant conflicting evidence, bets will be settled based on our own statistics.
1.2. Bets will be settled on the result at the end of regular time (40 minutes). This is also the case for a match of shorter duration (for example, 30 minutes) as long as the match is played in the traditional format of two halves.
If a match does not take place, bets on this match will be void. If a match is abandoned, bets will be void unless the outcome has been unequivocally decided.
Bets will be settled on the result at the end of regular time including stoppage time. Overtime is excluded.
The following rules include reasons for voiding bets.
1.1. Extra time is excluded unless otherwise stated for the relevant market.
1.2. Bets will be settled on the 60/70 minute result.
If a match is postponed, all bets on that match will be void unless it is rescheduled to take place within 72 hours of its originally scheduled start time. For the purpose of this rule, the scheduled start time of a match shall be that which is declared by the GAA Central Council, the individual provincial councils, and/or the individual county boards which determine the applicable competition fixtures. In the event of any conflict or inconsistency between the start times declared by any of the foregoing, the order of priority shall be (in descending order): (i) the GAA Central Council then (ii) the individual provincial councils then (iii) the individual county boards.
Bets will be settled based on the total (goals plus points) scored by the named player. The player must start for bets to stand. Placed balls (i.e. free-kicks, penalties, 45s and side-line balls) that result in a score will count towards bets on a player to score under or over a total number of points unless otherwise stated.
Bets will be settled based on the results of the official All-Star award ceremony.
Bets will be settled based on which goalkeeper first touches the ball while the match is in an active passage of play. For example, if a goalkeeper touches the ball but the referee brings back play for any reason (for example, a free kick is awarded in respect of an infringement that occurred before the goalkeeper touched the ball), the goalkeeper will, for the purposes of these rules, be deemed not to have touched the ball.
6.1. Bets will be settled based on the official result, which is declared by RTE Sport (or such other organisation as is nominated by us from time to time).
6.2. Bets involving woodwork to be hit require that the ball must hit a goalpost or the crossbar during active play. If the ball hits the woodwork after the referee has stopped play, then it will not count. If the ball hits the woodwork twice or more in succession, each connection with the woodwork will count separately.
6.3. Own goals scored by the opposition team will count towards a team's goal tally. However, own goals scored by a player will not count towards that player's goal tally.
The following rules include reasons for voiding bets.
1.1. Bets will be settled based on 90 minutes play according to the match officials, including injury time. Unless otherwise stated, extra time and penalty shoot-outs will not count.
1.2. In the case of ambiguity over the official result from the relevant governing body, the outcome will be determined using information from independent sources.
1.3. If an official fixture lists different team details to those listed on the Website (for example, substitutes, age group, gender, etc.), then all bets placed on the affected markets will be void. In all other cases, bets will stand (including instances where a team name is listed without specifying the term 'XI' in the name).
1.4. If any new information comes into the public domain within 72 hours of settlement, then we will (acting reasonably) either:
(a) settle or resettle the market in light of this new information; or
(b) wait for further information before deciding whether to settle or resettle the market.
1.5. For matches that are scheduled for a duration other than the standard 90 minutes, bets will be settled based on regular time, including injury time. If a match is played in an unusual format (for example, 3 or 4 periods) then all half time markets will be void.
1.6. There is a small possibility that, in Error, we offer bets in respect of which it is impossible for the outcome to occur (for example, we continue to offer bets on a player to be the first goalscorer in a match after that player has been substituted). While we have implemented systems which aim to prevent Errors such as this from occurring, in the small number of circumstances where it does, we will void the bets in question.
1.7. The statistics provided by offical data will be used to determine the settlement of any bets which are placed on: (i) a given player to achieve a certain number of shots or shots on target, (ii) the total number of offsides awarded in a match or against a particular team, (iii) the total number of shots on target achieved by both sides, or either side, in a match, (iv) the total number of tackles made by either team in a match or (v) the total number of free kicks, goal kicks or throw-ins in a match.
1.8. Offside is awarded to the plyer deemed to be in an offside position where a free kick is awarded. If two or more players are in an offside position when the pass is played, the player considered to be most active and trying to play the ball is given offside.
1.9. With respect to "Tackles", a tackle is defined as where a player connects with the ball in a ground challenge where he successfully takes the ball away from the player in possession.
1.10. The tackled player must clearly be in possession of the ball before the tackle is made.
1.11. A tackle won is deemed to be where the tackler or one of his team-mates regains possession as a result of the challenge, or that the ball goes out of play and is "safe".
1.12. A tackle lost is where a tackle is made but the ball goes to an opposition player.
1.13. Both are deemed as successful tackles however, the outcome of the tackle (won or lost) is different based on where the ball goes after the tackle.
1.14. It is not a tackle, when a player cuts out a pass by any means.
1.15. Missed Tackles is where a player attempts to challenge for the ball and does not make it -- it is calculated by adding fouls with an attempted tackle qualifier to the number of times a player is beaten by a dribble (challenge lost).
1.16. Clearance is a defensive action where a player kicks the ball away from his own goal with no intended recipient.
1.17. Interception is where a player reads an opponent's pass and intercepts the ball by moving into the line of the intended pass.
1.18. Blocked pass is where a player tries to cut out an opposition pass by any means. Similar to an interception except there is much less reading of the pass.
1.19. Block is where a player blocks a shot on target from an opposing player.
1.20. For 'time of first goal' bets (i.e. "First Goal Odds" markets), the first half is deemed to last 45 minutes, regardless of stoppage time. Also for these markets, please note that the "0 - 10 Minutes" selection covers the first 10 minutes of the match. In other words, it runs from 0:00 until just before the clock hits 10:00. The "11 - 20 Minutes" selection runs from 10:00 until just before the clock hits 20:00. The same principle applies to each of the other selections in this market.
1.21. If a team is relegated from a league because, at the end of a season, it has finished within the relegation positions which are relevant to that league (i.e. usually any of the bottom three league positions), bets on that team to be relegated will be settled as winning bets. If a team is otherwise disqualified, thrown out or removed from a league (i.e. in circumstances other than those where it has finished the season within the relevant relegation positions): (i) if such team is disqualified, thrown out or removed from the league before the relevant season has started, all bets on the affected market will be void (and a new market will subsequently be loaded) and (ii) if such team is disqualified, thrown out or removed from the league after the relevant season has started (or a determination is made by the applicable governing body, during the season, that the team will be thrown out or removed from the league following the season's conclusion), all bets on the affected team will be void. For the avoidance of doubt, if a points deduction is imposed on a team such that it finishes the season within the relegation places which are relevant to the applicable league, bets on that team to be relegated will be settled as winning bets.
1.22. In markets which relate to the number of incidents to occur, such as 'number of corners', these will be determined on the basis of the number taken, rather than awarded. This will also apply to incidents where time is a consideration.
2.1. Postponed matches must be rescheduled to kick-off within 3 calendar days of the original kick-off date for bets to stand (otherwise bets will be void).
2.2. If the rescheduled kick-off time is not announced by the relevant governing body within 3 hours of the original kick-off time for the postponed match, single bets will be void and multiple bets will be settled on the results of the remaining selections.
2.3. Changes to the kick-off time of a match prior to kick-off will not count as a postponement.
2.4. Bets on abandoned matches will be void unless:
(a) a rescheduled kick-off time is announced by the relevant governing body within 3 hours, and play is scheduled to resume within 3 calendar days, of the original kick-off time for the abandoned match; or
(b) the result of the relevant market has been unconditionally determined.
2.5. If the referee directs players to leave the field for a temporary suspension of play and play is resumed before 12:00am of the following day (local time for the relevant match), the suspension will not count as an abandonment
3.1. Unless otherwise stated, any player who takes the field for any part of a match will be deemed as a runner for settlement purposes. Only players not in the squad or unused substitutes will be deemed non-runners.
3.2. If a team is disqualified or removed from a league or tournament before the relevant competition has started, then all bets involving that team will be void.
If the venue of a match is other than that indicated on our website, bets will stand provided the match has not been switched to the opponent's home ground, in which case bets on the match will be void. However, in major international tournaments (for example, the World Cup and European Championships), all venues will be deemed neutral. If the scheduled venue of a match is changed, including if the venue changes to a new venue in a different country, all bets will stand.
5.1. If the VAR is consulted, the occurrence which led to the referral will be deemed to have occurred at the actual time of its occurrence (rather than the time on which the relevant referral, or decision, was made).
5.2. If a bet has been settled and, due to a subsequent VAR decision, it becomes apparent that such settlement was inaccurate, we will reverse such settlement (provided that the VAR decision occurred prior to the conclusion of the match or other timeframe relating to the bet).
5.3. Bets placed between the occurrence of an incident that led to a VAR review and the related VAR decision will be void unless:
(a) the VAR review (and subsequent decision) did not ultimately alter the decision made by the on-field officials; or
(b) the VAR review (and subsequent decision) altered the decision made by the on-field officials but did not impact the bet in question. All bets which were not materially influenced by the VAR review (and subsequent decision) will stand.
5.4. In order to eliminate any doubt, we will consider the VAR as having been used if this is understood from the referee's gestures (for example, hand gestures or stopping the match to review the incident themselves) or VAR usage is confirmed by the match report issued by the official governing body who is ultimately responsible for oversight of the applicable match. In cases where it is unclear if the VAR has been used due to missing TV coverage and/or conflicting reports, bets will be settled on the information acquired from feed providers and generally reputable online sources (acting reasonably).
6.1. For markets where the 'Star Sub' feature is available (indicated by the Star Sub icon), if the selected player is substituted before achieving the relevant market outcome and the substitute player achieves that outcome instead, bets will be settled as winning bets.
6.2. For example, for an 'Anytime Goal Scorer' market, if Harry Kane were selected and then substituted for Michael Olise without having scored, and Michael Olise were to score thereafter, the bet would be settled as a winning bet.
7.1. Full Time Result -- 2-Up is a stand-alone pre-event market and is limited to leagues where the 2-Up market type is available.
7.2. Bets will be settled as winning bets if the selection leads by 2 goals at any time during the match, regardless of whether the final result of the match is a draw or the selection loses.
7.3. Once a bet is settled as a winning bet due to a 2-goal lead, it will not be subject to an additional settlement if the selection wins the match according to the final result.
7.4. Goals which are disregarded or overturned do not count for settlement purposes. For example, if a team is leading 1-0 and scores a 2nd goal, which is cancelled after a VAR decision, the bet will not be settled as a win.
8.1. Match Odds 90 is a stand-alone pre-even market and is limited to leagues where the Match Odds 90 market type is available.
8.2. Bets will be settled as winning bets if the chosen selection leads by 1 or more goals at the 90-minute (90:00) mark of play.
8.3. If the chosen selection fails to lead by 1 or more goals at the 90-minute mark of play but goes on to win the match after a period of injury time, the bet will be settled as a winning bet.
8.4. Examples:
(a) If you bet on team to win and they are leading until stoppage time but, then concede an equalizing goal in stoppage time (90:00:01 and onwards) your bet will be paid out as a winner.
(b) If you bet on team to win in this market and they are drawing at 90:00 but, your selection score a goal in stoppage time and go on to win the game your bet will be paid out as a winner.
8.5. When a VAR review results in a goal being allowed for a particular team, the time of the goal will be determined by the official data provider and not by the time the VAR concludes.
9.1. For 'team scoring most goals' and 'team top goalscorer' markets, extra time is included, however penalty shoot-outs are not included.
9.2. If there is any dispute as to who has scored any goal, we will follow the decision made by the relevant governing body.
Bets will be void if the regular time (end of 2nd half) result is a draw.
11.1. Bets on players that do not take part in the match will be void. Bets on 'first goalscorer' markets will be void if the player takes the pitch after the first goal is scored. For other goalscorer markets, players will be deemed a participant in the listed market if they take the pitch at any point in 90 minutes play, including injury time.
11.2. For any market relating to a particular specified goalscorer, own goals will not be taken into account. Should an own goal be scored, then bets on the subsequent scorer will be deemed winners. The active goalscorer market will always be representative of the next goal to be scored in the match regardless of the previous goal being an own goal.
11.3. We will use reasonable efforts to quote all participants but that will not discount a player that is not quoted from being settled a winner.
12.1. Bets will be settled on first goal, second goal, third goal, fourth goal and fifth goal only. Players who do not score until after the fifth goal has been scored will be settled as losing selections. If fewer than 5 goals are scored in any given match, bets will be settled on those goals that are scored. If no goals are scored, all each way bets will be settled as losing bets.
12.2. If a player enters the field of play after the first goal is scored, both the win and place part of the bet will be void unless the first goal is an own goal (in which case bets will stand). If a player is sent off or substituted before the first goal is scored, bets on that selection will be settled as losing bets.
12.3. If a player scores the first goal of the match, both their win and place part are winners. If a player scores the second, third, fourth or fifth goal, only their place part is a winner.
12.4. A player cannot be placed twice (for example, if they score the second and third goal, only the second goal is deemed a winner).
12.5. Each way bets on no goalscorer, last goalscorer, first team goalscorers and Scorecasts [FL1] are not accepted. If any such bets are taken in Error, the full stake will be invested as a win only bet.
12.6. Place-only betting is not accepted.
12.7. Extra time does not count.
12.8. Own goals do not count. In cases where an own goal is 1 of the first 5 goals then the sixth goal will be settled as a winner on the place part of the each way bet. If 2 of the first 5 goals are own goals then the sixth and seventh goals will be settled as winners on the place part of the each way bet, etc.
Bets will be settled on the player who scores the most goals in their respective match out of the players listed (the listed players may or may not be playing in the same match). The 'tie' will be the winning selection should both players score the same number of goals or both players not score. Both players must start their respective matches for bets to stand. Own goals will not count.
14.1. A ' Scorecast ' is a first goalscorer and correct score double.
14.2. Players either not taking part in the match or taking part after a goal has been scored will cause a Scorecast bet to revert to a single on the correct score market at the relevant odds offered at kick-off. Should the initial goal (or goals) be own goals then bets on the subsequent scorer and correct score double will be deemed winners. If the only goals scored in the match are own goals, then bets will be settled as singles on the correct score market at the relevant odds offered at kick-off. Should a match be abandoned after a goal has been scored, then all bets will be settled as singles on the first goalscorer market at the relevant odds offered at kick-off.
15.1. A Wincast is a first goalscorer and match odds double.
15.2. If a player does not take the field by the time the first goal has been scored, bets will be settled as singles on the match odds market at the relevant odds offered at kick-off.
15.3. If the initial goal is an own goal, bets on the subsequent scorer and result double will be deemed winners.
16.1. All bets will stand irrespective of whether or not the player takes any part in the relevant league, tournament or competition. If there is any dispute as to who has scored a particular goal, we will follow the decision made by the relevant governing body.
16.2. Only the goals scored in the relevant league, tournament or competition will count. For example, if a player joins a club mid-season, any goals scored in a different league will not count. However, goals scored for a different club in the same league will count. Own goals will not count.
16.3. Any goals scored in play-off matches will not count.
16.4. Goals scored in extra time are included, however goals scored in penalty shoot-outs are not included.
17.1. All teams must complete all their league fixtures for bets on 'to finish bottom' to stand. If one or more teams do not complete all their fixtures for any reason, this market will be void. Any fixture that is abandoned, but an official result is awarded, will be classified as a completed fixture, and bets on this market will stand. Any subsequent amendments to league tables after all matches have been completed will not affect settlement of this market.
17.2. For Handicap top and Handicap bottom markets, goal difference does not count.
17.3. For 'top at Christmas' and 'bottom at Christmas' markets, bets will be settled on league position as of December 25 regardless of matches played and any postponements and/or abandonments. For 'bottom at Christmas' markets, if a listed team is disqualified or removed from the league prior to December 25, all bets will be void on the relevant market.
17.4. For top team from a particular continent or other selection (for example top South American, European or African Team), bets will be settled on the team that progressed furthest. If 2 named teams play each other in the final or third/fourth playoff, the winner of the match will be deemed as having progressed furthest. Dead Heat rules apply if 2 or more teams, which have progressed furthest in a particular market, exit in the tournament at the same stage.
This market offers betting on the chosen selection being the score at any time within 90 minutes of the match plus any injury time. Where a match is 0-0 at the end of 90 minutes and injury time, all selections will be losers. Extra time does not count.
19.1. Settlement in all cases will use the time of the event supplied to us by our third party data provider from time to time.
19.2. If none of the stated outcomes occur during the stated period, all bets will be settled as losing bets.
19.3. For the 'goal' selection, a goal will be deemed to have been scored the moment the ball completely crosses the goal line within the confines of the goal posts, provided that the referee ultimately awards the goal. For example, if the ball completely crosses the goal line but the goal is not awarded because, for example a foul occurred before the ball crossed the line, then a goal will not be deemed to have been scored. Own goals scored will count towards settlement of this market.
For extra time markets, bets apply to 30 minutes of play according to the match officials, plus any injury time. However, penalty shoot-outs are not included. Bets will be settled on the result during the extra time period only. For the purposes of this market, the score will be deemed to be 0-0 at the start of the extra time period.
21.1. Loan deals count as transfers for settlement purposes.
21.2. If a player does not move club within a specified time window, bets will be settled as losing bets. In such circumstances, any bets placed on the player to stay at their club will be settled as winning bets.
21.3. If the player signs for a club that is not quoted in the market, bets placed on that player to move to a specified club will be settled as losing bets. Extra clubs can be added to markets by customer request.
21.4. If an agreement is reached for a player to transfer to a new club on a future date, the player will be deemed to have transferred on the date at which the agreement is completed (rather than the date on which the player transfers to their new club). For example, if, on January 1, player X signs an agreement to transfer from club A to club B with effect from June 1, player X will, for settlement purposes, be deemed to have transferred to club B on January 1.
21.5. If it is unclear whether a deal has been completed before a deadline, we will delay settlement until official confirmation has been received from the relevant governing bodies.
21.6. The player must be registered to the club in question before the specified timeframe ends. Pre-contracts or other similar agreements that signal business to be completed at a date later than specified will not count.
21.7. If a player moves to a club, and is then immediately loaned out to another club, we will settle on the club that has signed the player permanently and not the loanee club.
If a match is postponed after the market has been published, the goal expectancy for this match will be removed, and a new total will be created. All bets placed prior to the postponement will stand but will be settled according to the new total.
23.1. The 'Golden Boot' award is given to the player who has scored most goals.
23.2. If 2 or more players score the same number of goals, the player with more assists will be deemed the winner.
23.3. If 2 or more players are still equal after taking assist into account, the minutes played by the player in the tournament will be taken into account, with the player playing fewer minutes ranked first.
23.4. The same criteria applies for each-way bets on this market.
Bets will be settled on who is awarded the 'Golden Boot' award.
25.1. bets are offered on the highest number of goals, corners or yellow cards (as applicable) achieved by, or awarded to, two teams who are playing in different matches. For example, where matches are due to occur between Team A and Team B (on the one hand) and Team C and Team D (on the other), we might offer a Mythical Match Market on whether, within those matches, Team A scores more goals, or is awarded more corners or yellow cards, than Team C (even though those teams are playing in separate matches).
25.2. If both teams score the same number of goals, achieve the same number of corners or are awarded the same number of yellow cards (as applicable), the draw is the winning selection.
25.3. The respective next fixtures of both teams will be displayed on website.
25.4. If a team's next fixture is played on a different day from that displayed on website, all Mythical Match bets involving such team will be void.
25.5. Each relevant team's applicable fixture must be completed and have its result upheld by the competition's official governing body (e.g. the FA Premier League or FIFA) in order for mythical match bets between those teams to stand.
25.6. In the case of a fixture not starting or being shortened due to external factors (e.g. unplayable conditions, security concerns, technical faults) all mythical match bets involving either of the two competing teams will be void.
25.7. If a match official shortens a match for any reason (e.g. foul play) all mythical match bets involving either of the two competing teams will be void.
26.1. for any bets involving a given player to achieve a number of shots on target, the final determination of offical data will be used to determine the number of shots on target which the relevant player achieved.
26.2. A shot on target is defined as any goal attempt that goes into the net regardless of intent or is a clear attempt to score that would have gone into the net but for being saved by the goalkeeper or is stopped by a player who is the last-man with the goalkeeper having no chance of preventing the goal (last line block).
26.3. Shots directly hitting the frame of the goal are not counted as shots on target, unless the ball goes in and is awarded as a goal.
26.4. Shots blocked by another player, who is not the last-man, are not counted as shots on target.
26.5. for any player shots/shots on target bets, all bets placed on players that do not take part in the match will be void. Players will be deemed a participant should they enter the game at any point in 90 minutes play plus injury time.
26.6. A pass is defined as any intentional played ball from one player to another. Passes include open play passes, goal kicks, corners and free kicks played as pass -- but exclude crosses, keeper throws and throw-ins.
All bets placed on players that are not part of the starting 11 will be void.
Players who are not on the field at the beginning of 90 minutes play will not be considered runners in this market and be settled as void.
These are markets which are offered on the number of first half team corners multiplied by the number of second half team corners.
bets will be void if any player named in the selection plays no part in the match, regardless of the overall outcome.
The maximum number of cards that may be awarded to a player is 2 (1x yellow card plus 1x red card = 1 card, and 1x yellow card plus 1x yellow card (sending off) = 2 cards).
32.1. the following points system will be used:
yellow card = 10pts
red card = 25pts
maximum points awarded per player = 35pts
2 yellow cards leading to an automatic red will score as 1 yellow and 1 red card
32.2. Bookings will only count for players taking part in the match. Bookings of managers, coaches or off the field of play will not count.
32.3. Only cards shown to players on the active field of play will count towards this total. If a card is shown to a substitute who is not on the active field of play at the time of this card, it will not count towards any totals. Cards shown after the full time whistle will also not count towards any totals. Cards shown to managers will not count towards any total.
32.4. Any bookings made during half-time will count, however bookings made after the final whistle do not count.
Bets will be void on any player that does not play any part in the match. In any dispute over whether or not a card was shown, we will settle the market when the ruling body has given its verdict. Subsequent appeals or rulings will not be considered. Cards will only count which are shown to players after they take the pitch for the first time and before they leave the pitch for the final time.
Bets placed on players that do not take part in the match will be void. Players will be deemed a participant for Player Carded markets should they enter the game at any point in 90 minutes play plus injury time. In any dispute over whether or not a card was shown, we will settle the market when the ruling body has given its verdict. Subsequent appeals or rulings will not be considered.
35.1. You are betting on a nominated player to achieve the stated stipulation in both the first half and second half:
35.2. If the nominated player achieves the stated stipulation in the selection, then the selection will be settled as a winner (e.g. if the selection is Harry Kane to have 1 or more assists in each half and he has an assist in the first half and an assist in the second half, this would be settled as a winner).
35.3. If the nominated player plays no part in the first half of the match, or indeed any part of the match, then the selection is void (e.g. if the selection is Harry Kane to score 1 or more goals in both halves and Harry Kane is a substitute, but comes on during or after half time, or plays no part whatsoever, the selection would be void).
35.4. If the nominated player plays any part of the first half, and fails to achieve the stated first half stipulation, then the selection is a loser regardless of the duration of their participation in either the first or second half (e.g. if the selection is Harry Kane to have 1 or more shots on target in each half, and he starts the match/comes on during the first half and fails to register a shot on target during the first half, this selection will be a loser regardless of his participation in the second half).
35.5. If the nominated player plays any part of the first half, and does achieve the stated stipulation but is subsequently withdrawn before or during half time and plays no part in the second half, then this selection will be void (e.g. if the selection is Harry Kane to score 1 or more goals in each half & assist 1 or more goals in each half, and he scores AND assists in the first half but is withdrawn before or during half time i.e. plays no part in the second half, then the selection is void. In this instance however, if he scored but didn't assist in the first half, the selection would be a loser, as it marries up with the point above).
All teams must complete all their league fixtures for bets to stand. If one or more teams do not complete all their fixtures for any reason this market will be void. Any fixture that is abandoned, but an official result is awarded, will be classified as a completed fixture, and bets on this market will stand. Any subsequent amendments to league tables after all games have been completed will not affect settlement of this market.
The maximum number of cards that may be awarded to a player is 2 (1x yellow card plus 1x red card = 1 card, and 1x yellow card plus 1x yellow card (sending off) = 2 cards).

38.3. Card Shown X -- Y markets are defined as betting on whether there will be a yellow or red card shown to a player within the time period X -- Y (inclusive) of the event's match clock. Only cards shown within that timeframe will count for settlement.
39.1. For the 'free kick' selection, a free-kick will be deemed to have been awarded the moment the referee and or assistant referee signal any of the following: A direct free-kick following a foul, an indirect free-kick following a foul or offside offence but not a penalty kick, corner or drop ball.
39.2. Direct Free Kick for Goals / Shots -- direct free kick shots are any attempts created directly from the free kick itself.

39.4. For the 'goal kick' selection, a goal kick is awarded and timed according to when it was indicated by the referee and/or assistant referees. A kick out from the hands of the goalkeeper or a free kick taken by the goalkeeper is not a goal-kick.
39.5. For the 'throw in' selection, a throw in will be deemed to have been awarded the moment the referee and or assistant referee signal the award of the throw in.
40.1. An 'assist' is defined by the final touch (pass, pass-come-shot or any other touch) leading to the recipient of the ball scoring a goal.
40.2. If the final touch (as defined above) is deflected by an opposition player, the initiator is only given an assist if the receiving player was the likely intended destination of the touch before the deflection.
40.3. If a shot on goal is blocked by an opposition player, is saved by a goalkeeper or hits the woodwork, and a goal is scored directly from the rebound, then an assist is awarded.
40.4. If a player shoots or passes the ball and forces an opposing player to put the ball in their own net (Own Goal), then an assist is awarded to the attacking player.
40.5. For a penalty or a free-kick, the player winning the penalty or free-kick (by being fouled or causing a handball) is awarded an assist if a goal is directly scored, but not if they take it themselves, in which case no assist is awarded.

41.2. A 'foul' is an infringement that is penalised as foul play by the referee.
41.3. For a foul to be awarded, play must be stopped and a free kick must be given. If the referee plays advantage and later distributes a yellow card once the ball goes out of play this will not count towards a foul as a free kick was never awarded.
41.4. Offsides do not count as fouls.
41.5. Official data will be used for settlement purposes.
42.1. A 'foul won' occurs when a player wins a free kick or penalty for their team after being fouled by an opposing player.

44.2. All OOT bets are settled on the basis of 90 minutes play (plus injury time) unless otherwise stated. Extra time and penalties will not count, except when the phrases 'To Qualify', 'Lift The Trophy' or 'Win The Tie' are quoted. For all multiple bets which involve one or more bets including such phrases, the remaining bets (i.e. which do not include such phrases) will be settled on the basis of 90 minutes' play (plus injury time) unless stated otherwise.
44.3. If any player who is part of an OOT bet does not take any part in the relevant match (or does not fulfil the conditions of the bet), then the whole OOT bet shall be voided. This will apply in all cases regardless if any/all of the remaining components win or lose.
44.4. Any dubious goals will be awarded according to the final determination of the Press Association.
44.5. Own goals do not count towards any player totals. If an own goal is scored by a player on Team A, the goal will be added to Team B's total goals as per normal rules.
44.6. For OOT bets which have been placed on the method of the first (or any other) goal (e.g. header, shot from outside the penalty area etc), any own goals will be disregarded (i.e. for the purposes of such any such bets, own goals will be deemed not to have occurred). For example, if you have placed an OOT bet on the first goal to be scored via a header, your bet will be successful if: (i) the first goal was an own goal which came off a player's knee and (ii) the second goal was an ordinary goal scored via a header.
44.7. For any outright OOT bets placed on the top goal scorer of a Premier League season, the bets will be settled on the basis of the player who is awarded the Golden Boot.
44.8. Any OOT bets involving woodwork to be hit require that the ball must hit a goalpost or the crossbar during active play. If the ball hits the woodwork after the referee has stopped play, then it will not count. If the ball hits the woodwork twice or more in succession, each connection with the woodwork will count separately.
44.9. For OOT bets on a player NOT to score or NOT to be carded, the player in question MUST start the match or the applicable bet(s) shall be voided.
44.10. If a football match is abandoned after it has started, we will settle any OOT bets which have already been unequivocally determined at the time on which the match is abandoned. Any OOT bets which have not been unequivocally determined at the time of abandonment will be void unless we have knowledge that the match has been rescheduled to be played within three days of its original start date (in which circumstances the bet shall apply to the rescheduled match).
44.11. Any OOT Bets on the last goalscorer of a match will be void if that match is abandoned.
44.12. For OOT bets involving goal kicks, only goal kicks which are actually taken will count towards the cumulative goal kick count (i.e. any goal kicks which are awarded but not taken will not count).
44.13. For OOT bets involving two or more occurrences, those occurrences must take place at separate times for the OOT bet to be successful. For example, an OOT bet on a header to be scored and a goal to be scored from outside the penalty area will only be successful if a goal is scored via a header and separate goal is scored from outside the penalty area.
44.14. Any OOT bets involving free-kick goals must be scored directly from a free-kick. For the avoidance of doubt, a goal will be deemed to have been scored directly from a free kick if the individual who takes the free kick is awarded the applicable goal (even if the ball touched another player before it crossed the goal line). Penalties do not count as free kicks.
44.15. For any bets involving a penalty to be scored and/or missed (including OOT bets), if there is a retake of the first penalty we will settle this market on the result of the retaken penalty. This may include several retakes until the sequence is finished.
44.16. For any OOT bets involving a given player to achieve a number of shots on target, the final determination by official data will be used to determine the number of shots on target which the relevant player achieved.
44.17. Any OOT bets involving total passes, total player passes or total possession will be determined in accordance with the final determination of the official website of the relevant competition's governing body.
44.18. Pass shall mean any intentional played ball from one player to another. Passes include open play passes, goal kicks, corners and free kicks played as pass -- but exclude crosses, keeper throws and throw-ins.
44.19. For any OOT bets involving players to be carded, only cards awarded once the player is active in the match will count. Any cards shown after the final whistle will not count.
44.20. For any OOT bets involving booking points: a yellow card will be worth 10 points and a red card will be worth 25 points. However, if a player receives two yellow cards and is consequently shown a red card, the player will receive a total of 35 booking points for the relevant game. Extra-time does not count nor do cards shown after the final whistle count towards the total. Only cards shown to players currently on the field of play will count. Cards shown to managers or substitutes will not count towards any total. If a card is shown to a substitute who is not on the active field of play at the time of this card, it will not count towards any totals. Cards shown to managers will not count towards any total.
44.21. For any OOT bets placed on the total number of cards to be awarded (e.g. in total, to a team or to a single player / group of players), a player who has been shown two yellow cards (and is therefore ultimately shown a red card) or a player who is shown a yellow card followed by a straight red card will, for settlement purposes, be deemed in each case to have been shown two (rather than three) cards. For the avoidance of a doubt, the award of a straight red card will, for settlement purposes, be deemed to amount to the award of a single card.
44.22. For any OOT bets involving corners, only corners that are actually taken will count. If a corner is re-taken, it will only count as one corner.
44.23. For any OOT bets relating to any competition long specials, in the event of one or more matches not being played, any selections that require an event (goal, corner etc.) to occur in each match will be settled at a reduced price in line with the actual number of matches that were played.
44.24. For any OOT bets relating to any specials involving players who play no part in the competition, these will be void.
44.25. Where an obvious pricing error has occurred, we reserve the right to cancel any OOT bets placed at the incorrect price (and, in such circumstances, we will offer the OOT bet to be re-placed at the correct price)
44.26. For any obvious wording errors, we reserve the right to cancel any OOT bets placed on that selection (and, in such circumstances, we will offer the OOT bet to be re-placed with the correct wording).
44.27. Any OOT bets requiring 2 teams to score in each half or to score 2+ or 3+ goals require each named team to score 2+, 3+ or in each half as appropriate.
44.28. Dead-heat rules apply.
44.29. The Maximum payout for an OOT bet is EUR 100,000. This maximum applies to any single OOT bet or any multiple which includes an OOT bet.
The following rules include reasons for voiding bets.
1.1. If there is a presentation ceremony, bets will be settled according to the official result of the relevant governing body at the time of the ceremony.
1.2. If there is no presentation ceremony, bets will be settled according to the official result of the relevant governing body immediately after the event.
1.3. The above applies regardless of any subsequent disqualification or amendment to the result (except if an amendment is announced by the relevant data source within 24 hours of the initial settlement of the relevant market in order to correct an Error in reporting the result, in which case we will resettle the bets as appropriate).
1.4. In the event of a tie where we did not offer a 'tie' or 'draw' selection, Dead Heat rules will apply to all bets except for those placed on 2 or 3-ball markets (in which case bets will be void).
1.5. If a tournament/round is restarted from the beginning, all bets placed after the official 'off' time will be void, except on markets that have been unconditionally determined, which will stand. Bets on 2 or 3-balls will only be void if placed after the tee-off time of the relevant 2 or 3-ball.
1.6. For 2 or 3-ball markets, bets will stand irrespective of whether the players play in the same group or pairing as each other.
1.7. In the event of a play-off, the result of the play-off will determine the winner of the tournament only. Even if 3 or more players take part, such a play-off has the sole purpose of deciding the winner of the tournament, and the relative finishing positions of the unsuccessful play-off participants are not affected.
1.8. If a bet is placed after the relevant result or outcome is known, then the bet will be void.
2.1. Tournament bets will only stand if the minimum number of holes to provide an official result are completed.
2.2. If a tournament is shortened and we settle the tournament markets, bets placed after the last completed round will be void.
2.3. If a tournament is shortened or otherwise affected by weather conditions, the trophy presentation will govern settlement (including tournament groups, matches, place only, top 10 and all other 72-hole markets) provided at least 36 holes of the event have been completed.
2.4. If 36 holes are not completed, bets will be void except for markets that have already been decided (e.g. first round 3-balls).
2.5. If no further play takes place after a bet is struck, the relevant bet will be void.
2.6. If an event is postponed, bets will stand provided play is resumed within 7 days of the postponement. If play resumes after 7 days, bets will be void.
3.1. If a player does not start a tournament, bets on that player will be void.
3.2. Unless otherwise stated, if a player withdraws from a tournament after having completed at least 1 stroke, the player is considered to have played in the tournament and bets placed on that player will be settled as losing bets. Bets placed on a player who has withdrawn from a tournament before they have completed at least 1 stroke will be void.
4.1. If a player withdraws without playing a stroke, then all bets on the relevant markets, including bets on that player, will be void.
4.2. If all players fail to complete a particular round for any reason, the winner is the player with the lowest total score after the previous round.
4.3. If all players fail to complete the first round, then all bets will be void.
5.1. In 2 or 3-ball betting, the winner will be the player in the pairing or group with the lowest score over 18 holes.
5.2. If a player in the 2 or 3-ball does not tee-off, all bets in that 2 or 3-ball are void.
5.3. In the event of a 2 or 3-ball being rearranged, all bets in that 2 or 3-ball will stand as per the original pairings/groups.
5.4. If a player posts a score but is later disqualified, all bets will be settled on the score that the player initially signs for that round. The signing of the card is deemed as the weigh-in, and subsequent disqualification or amendment of result will be ignored for settlement purposes.
5.5. Odds for a tie are offered in 2 ball betting. If a tie occurs, bets on both players are losers and bets on the tie are winners. Dead heat rules apply in the event of a tie in 3 ball betting.
5.6. At least 1 player in a 2 or 3-ball must complete 18 holes for bets to stand.
6.1. Bets will be settled on completion of the hole, and any subsequent penalties or disqualification will not be taken into account.

(b) if the tournament allows for halved matches, then the market will be settled as a 'half'.
7.2. For team matchplay events, bets on the winner of any singles match will be void if that match does not reach its natural conclusion.

11.2. Should 36 holes (or 54 holes in the case of a 3-round cut) not be completed, then all bets on this market will be void.
11.3. Players who are disqualified or withdraw subsequent to posting a score equal to or better than the official cut mark (after they have completed 36 holes) will be deemed to have made the cut.
11.4. PGA Tour: any player who makes the cut or the modified cut ('made cut, didn't finish/MDF') will be settled as having made the cut (according to the www.pgatour.com leader board).
12.1. If any of the players quoted as part of the big 'X' are non-runners, bets will be void on this market.
12.2. We will apply a Non-Runner Deduction [GS1] if the market is affected by non-runners.

15.2. Dead-Heat rules apply unless otherwise stated.
17.1. The rules in this sub-section apply specifically to the settlement of any golf bets which are placed via #oddsonthat ("OOT"). All other settlement rules which are included in these Golf rules or elsewhere on the Website will also apply to the settlement of OOT bets unless they contradict, or conflict with, those included in this sub-section (in which case, the rules in this sub-section shall take precedence).
17.2. For any OOT bets which involve a player to win a tournament, if that player shares the same lowest score in the tournament as another player and there is no play-off, the relevant part of the OOT bet will be settled according to our Dead Heat rules.
17.3. For all 'lie related' markets (e.g., Closest to the Pin, Number of Greens in Regulation, Hit the Fairway, etc.), bets will be settled on where the ball finishes. The lie will be determined using league official data.
17.4. In the event of a play-off, the result of the play-off will determine the winner of the tournament. Even if three or more contestants take part in a play-off, such a play-off has, for the purposes of any OOT bets, the sole purpose of determining the winner of the tournament (meaning that the relative finishing positions, within the tournament, of unsuccessful play-off contestants is not affected by their placing in the play-off).
17.5. Any players who withdraw from a tournament after they have completed 3 holes or more are considered as having played in the tournament and, therefore, any OOT bets placed on those players will be deemed to be losing bets.
17.6. For any OOT bets which involve a player that has withdrawn before they have completed 3 holes, the bet in question will be voided in its entirety.
17.7. Where an obvious pricing error has occurred, we reserve the right to cancel any OOT bets placed at the incorrect price (and, in such circumstances, we will offer the OOT bet to be re-placed at the correct price).
17.8. Any OOT bets involving a player to finish in the top 5/10/15/20 (or similar) will (unless otherwise stated) be deemed successful if the player finishes in a tie for the last named place.

17.9. For any obvious wording errors, we reserve the right to cancel any OOT bets placed on that selection (and, in such circumstances, we will offer the OOT bet to be re-placed with the correct wording).
17.10. The maximum payout on an OOT golf bet shall be EUR 50,000. For the avoidance of doubt, this maximum applies to all elements of your OOT bet when taken together (i.e. it does not apply separately to each element of your OOT bet).
The following rules include reasons for voiding bets.
1.1. Greyhound names are displayed on the website for information purposes only and all bets will be settled on the basis of the trap numbers on which bets are placed.
1.2. Double result concessions do not apply to our greyhound racing markets.
1.3. Where a "no race" is declared, all bets will be voided unless the "re-run" race takes place on the same day (in which case all original bets will stand).
1.4. All bets will be settled on the basis of the official result declared on the day of the relevant race. If the official result is retrospectively changed, Betfair will not resettle the applicable markets.
1.5. In the event that no starting prices are returned for an individual race, all bets on that race will be declared void.
1.6. Where a greyhound is withdrawn from a race or replaced by an alternative (e.g. reserve) greyhound, all early price bets which were placed on the remaining greyhounds before the withdrawal or replacement will be settled at those greyhounds' starting prices (while all bets placed following a withdrawal or replacement will be settled at the relevant greyhounds' early prices).
1.7. Each way starting price bets will be accepted for unnamed favourites. All unnamed second favourites are win only and, therefore, no each way betting is available for them.
1.8. In races where there are less than six runners, all Top 3 market bets will be void.
1.9. In races where there are less than six runners, all Betting W/O market bets will be void
1.10. Best Odds Guaranteed is not available on greyhound racing.
2.1. Future Greyhounds are subject to a maximum payment of EUR 50,000. The only exception to this is the English Greyhound Derby which has a maximum payout, for Future Greyhound bets, of EUR 100,000.
2.2. The maximum payout to any one customer in respect of bets on any single day's greyhound racing in the UK is EUR 100,000 to the extent that such bets are covered by a "full service". Unless stated otherwise herein, bets on all Irish greyhound races and UK bets which are not covered by a "full service" are subject to a maximum payout of EUR 10,000.
2.3. We only accept bets in respect of greyhound meetings which are displayed on our website. The only exceptions to this rule are when prices are quoted over the phone and applied to a customer's account. Any bets inadvertently processed in respect of events which are not displayed on Betfair's website will be voided (regardless of the result).
2.4. Future Greyhounds Betting
2.5. For the avoidance of doubt, Future Racing and Antepost bets refer to the same market type and either term may be used interchangeably.
2.6. Unless stated otherwise in the remainder of this sub-section, Future Greyhounds bets are accepted on an "all-in" basis, whether a selection runs or not. Therefore, in the event of a non-runner, for whatever reason, all bets placed on an Future Greyhounds basis will stand.
2.7. When the runners for a Future Greyhounds event are finally determined (generally, this will mean that the event has been whittled down to 6 runners), all bets placed after the Trap Draw for the Final is announced will revert to Non-Runner No Bet.
2.8. All bets placed after the trap draw for a final has been announced will be settled at their starting price (i.e. SP) should any of the other finalists fail to take their place for whatever reason.
2.9. Bets placed on a given greyhound after the trap draw for a final will be voided if that greyhound is withdrawn from the race (i.e. such bets will be settled on a "non-runner no bet" basis).
3.1. Each way betting on greyhound races will be settled as follows: (i) 8 runners = 1/5th of the full payout for first three finishers and (ii) 5-7 runners = ¼ of the full payout for the first two finishers. Where there are four runners or fewer in a greyhound race, we do not offer each way betting.
3.2. Where the number of runners in a race is reduced to four (i.e. for a race in which five or more greyhounds were previously due to compete), any each way bets will be automatically converted to "win only" bets.
4.1. A trap challenge bet is a bet placed on the most successful trap across a number of races.
4.2. Where a trap challenge market offered by Betfair is described by reference to specified timeframes, the postponement of any races (such that they do not occur within those timeframes) will be disregarded. For example if a meeting is scheduled to run from 18:38 to 21:26 but the 21:26 race ends up taking place at 21:49 due to unforeseen circumstances, the postponed race will still form part of any trap challenge bets which are placed in respect of such meeting.
4.3. Trap challenge bets are defined by reference to their scheduled off-times. Any race which occurs outside of those scheduled off-times will not be included within the relevant bet (save where the race in question occurs outside of the scheduled off-time due to postponement).
4.4. Trap challenge results stand irrespective of vacant traps, reserves running or void races. No Rule 4 deductions will be applied to trap challenge markets.
4.5. All trap challenge bets will stand if more than half of the specified races in the named trap challenge market take place. If half of the races or fewer take place, bets on the relevant trap challenge market will be voided.
4.6. Trap Challenge markets are win only and are only available up until the first scheduled race.
4.7. If two or more trap numbers record the same number of wins then our normal dead-heat rules will apply to applicable trap challenge markets.
4.8. Should any individual race result in a dead heat for 1st place then all greyhounds concerned will be regarded as having won that race for trap challenge settlement purposes.
4.9. Inside v Outside -- In races where there are less than six runners, all Inside / Outside trap bets will be void.
4.10. Inside v Outside -- In the event of a Dead Heat all Inside / Outside trap bets will be void. Bets are only void if an inside trap dead heats with an outside trap. Should two inside traps dead heat ie. Trap 1 and Trap 2, then inside traps should be paid as a winner.
5.1. Placepots and/or placer bets can be accepted via telephone only. Named runners will not be accepted, only trap numbers.
5.2. Should a vacant trap replace a selected greyhound, any bet on that trap number will automatically be deemed to be a bet on the unnamed favourite. If, in such circumstances, there are joint-favourites for the race in question, the bet will automatically be deemed to be a bet on the joint-favourite with the lowest racecard number.
5.3. In the event of a placepot / placer bet being accepted on a meeting where a dividend is not declared, all such placepot / placer bets will be deemed void (irrespective of the result).
6.1. Forecast dividends are declared to a EUR 1 stake and will be settled according to the BAGS industry forecast dividend.
6.2. Where a forecast bet has been placed by a customer and one of the customer's selections becomes a vacant trap, the customer's bet will automatically be converted into a win single on the remaining selection (the odds for such win single to be the remaining greyhound's starting price).
6.3. In the event that any number of greyhounds are involved in a dead-heat for either 1st or 2nd place then an industry dividend will be issued for both winning forecasts.
6.4. Tote Tricasts
6.5. Tricast dividends are declared to a EUR 1 stake and will be settled according to the BAGS industry tricast dividend.
6.6. If a tricast is accepted on a race where no tricast dividend is declared then any tricast bets will be settled as a forecast bets on the first two greyhounds appearing on the customer's bet slip.
6.7. Where a tricast bet has been placed by a customer and one of the customer's selections becomes a vacant trap, the customer's bet will automatically be converted into a forecast bet on the remaining selections. If two of the customer's selections become vacant traps, the customer's bet will automatically be converted into a win single on the remaining selection (the odds for such win single to be the remaining greyhound's starting price).
6.8. In the event that any number of greyhounds are involved in a dead heat for either 1st, 2nd or 3rd place then an industry dividend will be issued for each winning forecast.
6.9. Tricasts are accepted as singles only. Multiples accepted in error will be deemed void (irrespective of the result).
7.1. Should there be any non-runners in a race, bets will be settled at Industry Dividends.
7.2. Should any selection included within a fixed odds forecast or fixed odds tricast bet be a non-runner, the entire forecast or tricast bet in question will be void.
8.1. All bets will be settled as per Irish Coursing Club (ICC) rules. In all circumstances, the judge's decision will be final.
8.2. If a greyhound is withdrawn before coming under the slipper's control in the first round, bets placed on such greyhound will be deemed void.
8.3. In the event of a final not being run for any reason, our dead heat rules will apply to all antepost bets.
The following rules include reasons for voiding bets.
1.1. Bets will be settled based on the result at the end of regular time (60 minutes) unless stated otherwise. Extra time does not count.
1.2. If 60 minutes of play is not completed, then all bets will be void, except those that have been unconditionally determined. If an official result is declared, all bets will stand.
1.3. If a bet is placed after the relevant result or outcome is known, then the bet will be void.
If a match is postponed, bets will be void unless it takes place within 48 hours of the original start time.
Bets will be void if the number of total goals the bet was placed on is equal to the combined total of goals from both teams at the end of the match.
Bets will be void if the regular time result is a draw.
Bets on the specified goal will be void if the match ends before the goal is scored.
Bets will be void if the specified goal milestone is never reached.
1.1. If a match is postponed, all bets will be void unless it takes place within 36 hours of the original start time.
1.2. If a match is abandoned, all bets will be void unless the outcome has been unconditionally determined.
The following rules include reasons for voiding bets.
1.1. All individual race markets will be settled based on the official result at the time of the 'weigh-in' announcement. Subsequent disqualifications, appeals or amendments to the result will be disregarded.
1.2. Card numbers are posted as a guide only: bets are placed on a named horse. Information such as jockey silks and saddlecloth numbers is provided for guidance only. We do not guarantee the accuracy of this information, and the use of it to place bets is entirely at a customer's own risk.
1.3. If the scheduled venue is changed after a bet is placed, all bets will be void. If a scheduled surface type is changed (for example, turf to dirt), all bets will stand.
1.4. The favourite is the selection quoted in the official starting price returns at the shortest odds. The second favourite is the horse quoted at the next shortest odds. If two horses are quoted at the same odds, and these odds are shorter than those quoted against any other horses, then these two are equal first favourite and equal second favourite. If two or more co-favourites are thus selected, the stake will be divided equally between them.
2.1. If a race is abandoned or otherwise declared void, or in the event of a walkover, all bets on that race will be void.
2.2. If a race does not take place on its scheduled date, all bets will be void.
3.1. If a horse comes under starter's orders but refuses to race, bets on that horse will be settled as losers.
3.2. With the exception of Ante Post bets, if a runner is withdrawn or adjudged not to have started, it will be deemed a non-runner, and bets will be void.
3.3. Bets on the remaining runners in that race, where a price has been taken, may be subject to a deduction based on Tattersalls Rule 4(c) (see below) which is dependent on the withdrawn horse's price at the time it was withdrawn.
3.4. Bets on horses in reformed markets that subsequently have one or more withdrawn horses may also have a deduction applied based on the prices of any withdrawn horse(s) at the time of the withdrawal(s).
3.5. If there is insufficient time to form a new market on the race, bets placed at starting price may also be subject to a deduction based on Tattersalls Rule 4(c).
3.6. For bets where a price is taken, the application of Tattersalls Rule 4(c) will be determined by the last price available at the time the relevant horse is withdrawn.
3.7. If there are two or more withdrawals in one event, the deduction will not exceed GBP 0.90. If the price of a withdrawn selection is not quoted in the above table, then Rule 4(c) will be applied at the next highest price quoted. For example, 21/5 would be classed in the 9/2 bracket for Rule 4 purposes.
3.8. In races with reserves, reserves will generally be priced up within the market. However, if any bets are taken prior to a reserve horse being declared to run and where the reserve was not priced up at the time the bet was placed, then any such bets will be settled on the result 'without the reserve runner(s)'. Each way bets settled on the result 'without the reserve runner(s)' will be based on the number of runners, excluding reserves, that start the race. In races where reserves are priced but do not run, Rule 4 deduction may apply.
3.9. If a horse is removed from a market but subsequently takes part in the race, bets on that selection will be void and stakes refunded at the point that the selection was removed from the market. At the point that the horse is re-instated in the market, all original bets will be replaced, subject to customers having available funds in their account. If a customer does not have available funds within their account at the time of reinstatement, the voided bet will not be replaced.
4.1. If a market is not scheduled to be turned In-Play, but we fail to suspend the market at the relevant time, bets placed after the official 'off' time will be void.
4.2. If a market is scheduled to be turned In-Play, but we fail to suspend the market at the official time of the 'off' and the market is not turned In-Play at any time during the event, all bets placed after the official 'off' time, rather than the scheduled 'off' time, will be void.
5.1. For the avoidance of doubt, Ante Post and Future Racing bets refer to the same market type, and either term may be used interchangeably.
5.2. Ante Post bets are those placed at our quoted prices on horses and prior to the race becoming classed as 'day of event' (day of event is a term used to describe the time at which overnight declarations are made, usually 10am on the day preceding the race (or 2 days for certain Group 1 races).
5.3. Ante Post bets will be settled on a Rules of Racing basis only.
5.4. Ante Post bets are accepted at quoted prices, up to and including the day prior to the event, on an 'all in' basis, run or not, entered or not. Therefore, selections not taking part in the race/event concerned are deemed losers.
5.5. Bets placed after the overnight declaration stage will be settled in accordance with our early prices/day of race rules.
5.6. In line with principles laid down by Tattersalls Rules of Racing, Ante Post bets will be void under the following circumstances; otherwise, bets will stand:
5.7. If the race is abandoned or declared void.
5.8. If the venue of the race is altered or the race is postponed to a later date at a different track.
5.9. If the race is postponed to a later date at the same track with entries totally reopened, bets placed after the initial entries are void, but bets placed prior to the initial entry stage will stand. All bets will stand if a race is postponed to a later date at the same track with the same entries, whether the bet was placed before or after the initial entries stage.
5.10. If the horse is balloted out or eliminated under Jockey Club rules, single bets will be void. In any such cases, accumulative Ante Post bets will stand on the remaining legs at the prices laid on the selections in those races, with a double becoming a single, a treble becoming a double, etc.
5.11. If any horses are withdrawn under Jockey Club/Turf Club rules to limit the number of entries taking part, bets on these horses will be void. The liability of a layer against horses remaining will be reduced on both win and place parts of such bets, in accordance with the rate to be announced before the race by Tattersalls Committee, dependant on the odds currently available against the withdrawn horses at the time of withdrawal. Bets are executed at the price ruling at the time of handing in of the bet. We reserve the right to correct any palpable error. Win doubles, trebles, etc. are calculated at full accumulative odds. Each way doubles and trebles etc. are settled win-to-win, place-to-place, and for the place part of such bets, the fractional odds pertaining at the time of acceptance. Place only bets, conditional bets and forecast bets are not accepted for Ante Post betting. If the same selection is backed to win two or more races/events in Ante Post bets, special odds are applicable. These special odds will supersede the accumulative odds calculated from the individual event prices, irrespective of the fact that the individual event prices may be endorsed on the slip. If special odds were not available, the stake will be divided equally as singles at the prices available at the time the bet was placed. If a horse does not qualify for, or is expunged from a race, bets will be settled as a loser. Bets taken on a horse after they have not qualified by the applicable qualifying date will be void.
Starting Price ('SP') bets will be settled on the official Industry Starting Price.
If no official Industry Starting Price or Industry Off Course Starting Price is returned, bets where no price is taken (including forecasts, tricasts and unnamed favourites) will be settled at the last price quoted prior to the 'off' of the race.
7.1. All bets placed on UK and Irish horse racing will be settled on First Past the Post and the official result on the day. Any subsequent disqualification will not affect the settlement of bets.

Should a jockey miss any of their booked rides, selections that could have been determined will be settled and all others voided. If a jockey picks up any spare rides these will not be counted towards their number of winners. If any of the jockey's rides are non-runners the bet will revert to SP settlement, for example 'to ride 3 winners' from 4 rides with 1 becoming a non-runner will be settled as an SP treble should the other 3 win.
