BET TYPES
Single
A bet on the result of a single event.
Earnings in a single bet are equal to the sum of the bet multiplied by the ratio of the gain. Simple or single bet is the simplest form of gambling: an event and its forecast.
Combination
The combination bet is one of the most used bet types. Here the Player combines several bets into one. The total fee is derived by multiplying the odds of the different bets. To win the bet you must hit all the results. Example: Juventus Turin – AS Roma: Home team to win (1), Tottenham Hotspur – Chelsea FC: Both teams to score (YES), Real Madrid – Getafe CF: Over/Under (over 2.5) – Total Fee: 1.76 x 1.8 x 1.95 x stake (£1) = £6.18.
As soon as you make more than one prediction of different sporting events (e.g. two different football games), you have the potential to generate a combination bet. The total quota is obtained by multiplying the odds of all individual forecasts. Please note that you will only get the gain of a combination bet if you hit all the predictions made.
Types of Accumulation Bets
The vast majority of bets can be combined. Only some of them, such as certain Formula 1 bets, lack this ability and can only be closed as simple. The decision whether a prediction can be combined with other is taken by the bookie and depends inter alia on the relevant party or event. You will be told if this is so later in the time of closing the bet. Important note: bets belonging to the same event cannot play as often or as combined betting system.
System bet
As opposed to single bets or combination bets that are either simply won or lost as a whole, each individual bet within the system bet is treated separately, so one system bet could eventually contain a mix of winning and losing bets. For system bets, sometimes the player can win less than the stake, and sometimes quite a bit more.
The key difference between a system bet and multi-leg (accumulator) bet is that you can win a system bet even if not all of your picks are correct whereas an acca fails if one leg is lost. For example, a 2/3 system bet will be successful if you lose one of the legs.
Banker bet
Banker bet is a part of a system bet (like an accumulator, for example) that must succeed, otherwise the entire wager fails. Because of the importance of the banker bet succeeding, the bettor will usually choose their banker bet to be the bet within a system that they feel has the highest probability of success.
Jackpot Bet
Jackpot bet will be shown and settled as regular bet, but placed on a fixed game where events are settled according to the result of the Fixture
RULES
If the outcome of a market cannot be verified officially, it will be our concern to void any market to delay the settlement until official confirmation.
If markets were offered when the outcome was already verified, it will be our concern to void any market.
In the case of any obviously incorrectly displayed or calculated prices, it will be our concern to void any market.
If coverage has to be abandoned and the match finishes regularly, all markets will be settled according to the final result. If the outcome of a market cannot be verified officially, it will be our concern to void any market.
In the case of an incorrect settlement of markets, it will be our concern to correct them anytime.
If a match does not adhere to the generally accepted format (e.g. unusual period length, counting procedure, format of a match etc.); it will be our concern to void any market.
If the rules or format of a match differ from our accepted norm, it will be our concern to void any market.
If a match is not completed or not played (e.g. through disqualification, interruption, withdrawal, changes in draws etc.), all not decided markets are considered void.
European handicap is basically a 3-way bet, similar to a 1X2 match result bet. That is why it is also found as “Handicap” or “3-way handicap” on all sports and similar sidebet like 1st half market will be settled according to these rules. In any match with a significant difference in strength between the two teams, a handicap is placed on the outsider, in order to make it harder for the favorite to win the bet or the reverse with favourite. So far the function is the same with Asian Handicap. Here is the significant difference: the European Handicap (abbreviated as EH) is always an integer number, meaning it can be matched with a goal difference. Instead of placing an Asian Handicap of -1,5 goals or -0,25 goals, the European handicap is always of a -1, -2, -3 etc. kind.
As in Asian Handicap the main target is to get rid of the draw result (with a non-integer handicap you can actually win or lose the bet), the European Handicap actually has a “draw” result. Which is not, of course, the actual draw of the game, but the “equalizing” of the specific handicap set by the online bookmaker.
A very important thing, on our feed we apply ALWAYS the HANDICAP value (-1),(-2),(+1),(+2) on HOME TEAM.
European handicap bets usually appear like this:
Team A (-2) – Draw (-2) – Team B (-2)
What does this mean? Let’s take a closer look:
- Team A (-2): If you back this option, you win when the team in question wins by three goals or more.
- Draw (-2): In this case, you win if the match favorite wins by exactly two goals.
- Team B (-2): The last option favors the outsider of the match. Your bet will be considered a winning one if your backed team either wins the match, gets a draw, or even loses by one goal.
Player Props markets are available for AFL, EPL, English Championship, Bundesliga, La Liga, Italian Serie A, UEFA Champions League, Soccer World Cup, MLB, NBA, NFL and NRL leagues with these terms and conditions:
- All Player Markets include overtime for bet resulting. Penalty shootouts are not included.
- If any player selected for any bet type does not participate in game then all bets on that player shall be Voided.
- If the match starts but is abandoned or suspended at any time before the match reaches a natural end and the match does not resume within 48 hours, then all undecided bets on that player shall be Voided.
- All bets created prior to the venue change shall be Voided.
- Bets on players where match is marked as postponed or cancelled in game state before the scheduled start time shall be left with pending status and resulted if the game starts within 48 hours of the original (global game time) scheduled start time. If game does not start within 48 hours, bets shall be Voided.
If there is a Dead Heat, you will win part of your bet and lose part of your bet. A Dead Heat is calculated by dividing the stake proportionally between the number of winners in the event. So, in a two-way Dead Heat (2 winners) for example, your return will be half of what it could have been. Dead heat rules do not apply when the tie or draw is offered in the market. Effectively when you have a dead heat, one part of your bet is treated as a winner, and one part as a loser. If a three way dead-heat, one part (33.33%) would be a winner, and two parts (66.66%) would be losers.
Example with 3 winners:
- Customer A backs Cristiano Ronaldo for £10 at 1.8 to be Top Serie A Scorer
- Customer B backs Ciro Immobile for £20 at 3.0 to be Top Serie A Scorer
- Customer C backs Didier Drogba for £5 at 5.0 to be Top Serie A Scorer
In a three way dead heat the following returns would be expected:
- Customer A – (£10 / 3 = £3.33) * 1.8 = £6 return
- Customer B – (£20 / 3 = £6.67) * 3.0 = £20 return
- Customer C – (£5 / 3 = £1.67) * 5.0 = £8,3 return
1. Soccer
General
All match markets are based on the result at the end of the regular time. This includes any added injury or stoppage time but does not include extra time, time allocated for a penalty shootout or a golden goal.
Video Assistant Referee (VAR) will be taken into account. Decisions made after a significant event occurs, may result in confirmed bets being voided. Bets voided will be from the time of the significant event, until the time the final VAR decision was officially announced.
An exception is made when this rule relates to friendly matches. In such cases, all match markets are settled based on the actual result at the end of the game (excluding any extra time), irrespective of whether the full 90 minutes is played. This rule applies only to matches with regular playing time of two 45-minute halves.
Some Soccer matches may have different playing schedules. In that case the following will apply:
- 90 minutes scheduled play (3 x 30 minutes). Full-time bets are still considered valid. Halftime bets are considered void.
- 80 minutes scheduled play (2 x 40 minutes). All bets are still considered valid.
Should any match be played prior to the date or kick-off time denoted then bets will stand provided the wager is placed not later than the revised kick-off time.
All bets on a match abandoned before the completion of the regular time will be void unless the match is rearranged and played on the same date (local time) or stated otherwise in the rules, except for bets on any markets that have been unconditionally determined.
If the game does not take place as scheduled and is not played on the same date (local time) all bets are void. An exception is made if incorrect kick-off time is announced on our website.
If a match venue is changed then bets already placed will stand providing the home team is still designated as such. If the home and away team for a listed match are reversed then bets based on the original listing will be void.
In the absence of an official source, or when significant conflicting evidence is present, bets will be settled based on our own statistics.
Booking markets
Yellow card counts as 1 card and red or yellow-red card as 2. The 2nd yellow for one player which leads to a yellow red card is not considered. As a consequence one player cannot cause more than 3 cards.

Cards shown after the match are not considered.

2. Horse Racing
General
Bets on Racing are automatically settled on the double result basis unless otherwise stated or as detailed in the double result section below.
Ante-post bets (including Non Runner No Bet) are settled at the price and place terms applicable at the time of acceptance. The advertised times of races, the runners, returns and results as published in the Racing Post (or the national press) will govern settlement of all bets, excepting errors and omissions. Should a wrong price or place term be given in error we reserve the right to settle the bet according to the correct price/place terms available at the time of the bet.
When a result is amended after the official result (i.e. the weigh-in), for example as a result of a successful appeal, the amendment will be ignored for settlement purposes. We cannot be held responsible for any errors or omissions in respect of accuracy in publishing or issuing of prices or information, despite every effort being made to ensure total accuracy. We reserve the right to correct these errors.
Double Result Concession
Double Result means if your horse finishes ‘First Past The Post’ you get paid as a winner, however, should your horse be awarded the race or promoted to a place, as a result of a Stewards’ Inquiry or Objection which is announced before the ‘Weigh In’, we will also pay you.
All bets placed on UK and Irish horse racing will be settled on First Past the Post AND the official result (i.e. the Weighed In result). The rules will be applied so that the settlement is always in the favour of the customer.
- First Past the Post: The immediate result after the race has been completed (see Exceptions below).
- Official Result: Announced at the ‘Weigh In’ on the day, after any Stewards’ Inquiries and/or Objections have been considered. If a winner or a placed horse is disqualified/demoted after the official result is announced, the disqualification/demotion will not affect the settlement of bets.
The Double Result concession applies on all selections and bets that are not mentioned in the Exceptions section.
There is no restriction on stakes that are applicable for the Double Result concession, but payouts are subject to our advertised Maximum Payout Limits as normal.
Exceptions
The exceptions where ‘First Past the Post’ settlement is not applicable, and bets will only be settled according to the official result are as follows:
- Any race that is held outside the UK and Ireland.
- Any UK/Irish race that does not have an industry SP returned
- All bets placed on SP odds and bets on the First and Second Favourites.
- All selections that are placed under Ante-Post rules (including Non Runner No Bet).
- All selections from any market other than Racecard (e.g. Forecast/Tricast, Betting Without Favourite(s), Place Only, Match Betting and any other extra/special markets that are offered).
- All selections that are placed on horses finishing in places relevant under enhanced EW terms offers only.
- A selection taking the wrong course.
- A selection carrying the wrong weight or the jockey failing to weigh-in.
- Aintree Grand National race.
- A selection given as the winner in error by the judge.
Each-way
Bets are acceptable win or each way. Using the each way checkbox will double the unit stake placed on the winner selection.
It will contain one bet on the Winner and another bet on the Place, Terms will be written at the header of the event eg. E/W 1/4 1-2-3
For horse racing, the each way bets will be determined according to the number of runners and the table:
|
Number of Runners |
Race |
|
|
1-4 |
Win Only | |
|
5-7 |
Odds 1/4, for 1 to 2 Places |
|
|
8-11 |
Odds 1/5, for 1 to 3 Places |
|
|
12-15 |
Odds 1/5, for 1 to 3 Places |
|
| 16+ | Odds 1/4, for 1 to 4 Places |
|
Number of runners coming under starters orders will be the number which will determine the each way terms for non-ante post races.
If non-runners take the race to less than five runners the place money goes on to win.
Some races can have enhanced odds or places and we keep the right to offer different odds and places.
Dead Heats
When a dead heat occurs for first place, the stake money on the winning selection will be divided by the number of winners, with full odds paid at the reduced stake. The remainder of the stake is lost. Where an each-way bet involves a dead heat winner, the win part of the bet will be settled as above, and the place part will be settled in full, in accordance with the relevant place terms. Should the dead heat involve placed selections and results in more than the allocated number of places, then the stakes will be divided as before, and settled to the full place terms.
Ante Post
Ante post events will be available in advance to customers, more than 48 hours before the race. Bets on non-runner horses in ante post events will be considered lost, unless otherwise stated.
Ante post events may be suspended on days when races related to the event occur.
Ante post bets will be settled according to the price and place terms at the time the bet has been placed.
We reserve the right to cancel wagers on ante post prices/places which have been presented due to typing or human errors.
Postponed Races
If a race is postponed and final declarations stand, then the bets will stand. Bets will be void if:
- The race is declared void
- The race is abandoned

In the case of a non-runner, the deduction will apply according to the non-runner odds right before the withdrawal.
R4 will apply on ‘Day of event race’, less than 48 hours before the race.
If 2 or more horses are withdrawn, the total deduction will not exceed 90p.
Rule 4 deductions will apply to all winning bets placed before the non-runner was declared.
- Example: prices available at 9:00 am.

If a horse comes under Starter’s Orders but refuses to race, the bet will be a loser. In all horse races where a runner is withdrawn, or adjudged not to have started – and therefore been declared a Non-Runner by the starter – stakes on that selection will be refunded (The exception to this being Ante Post bets). Bets on the remaining runners in that race, taken at Early Prices or at Board Prices prior to withdrawal, will be subject to a deduction.
Reserves
Some races contain reserves, who may or may not be priced in our early prices lists. The finishing position of any of these reserves will count regardless of whether they are priced or not.
If a reserve horse is offered with an early price and becomes a non-runner, the normal Rule 4 deduction will be applied to all bets struck prior to the non-runner as a result of the withdrawal.
Favourites
Bets on First and Second favourites are accepted win-only at starting price. Early prices or board prices cannot be taken on unnamed favourites.
The favourite is the horse quoted at the shortest odds in the official starting price.
The second favourite is the horse quoted at the next shortest price.
If two horses are quoted at the same odds and these odds are shorter than those quoted against any other, then these two are equal first favourite and equal second favourite.
If two or more co-favourites are selected, the stake will be divided equally between them and paid at full odds.
Betting Without
Predict the result of a given race excluding a Favourite horse. The finishing position of the Favourite horse will be ignored for bets placed on this market. For example, a bet placed on Cue Card without Don Cossack (favourite) will win if Cue Card wins the race or finishes second to Don Cossack. The bet will have lost in all other circumstances.
In markets where we offer ‘Betting Without’ a nominated selection, the place terms will be based on the remaining number of runners excluding the nominated selection.
Any each-way terms advertised are settled on the actual number of runners who take part in the race, excluding the ‘without’ selection.
Any rule 4 deductions will still apply and will be based on the price of the withdrawn runner in that market at the time of withdrawal.
Betting Without bets are settled ignoring the finishing position of the nominated ‘without’ runner. Where the nominated ‘without’ selection is withdrawn before the start of a race, all bets on any of the field in this market stand.
Where the nominated “Without” selection is withdrawn before the start of a race, all bets on any of the field in this market stand.
If 2 or fewer runners start the race, bets will be void.
Normal dead-heat rules apply.
Place Only Betting
Place Only 2 – Predict a horse to finish in one of the first two places. Place only bets are accepted on horse races of five or more runners.
Place Only 3 – Predict a horse to finish in one of the first three places. Place only bets are accepted on horse races of eight or more runners.
In the event of a horse being withdrawn, not under starter’s orders, stakes on that selection will be returned. Bets for the remaining horses in the race will be subject to a deduction in accordance with the Rule 4 table below based on the price in the Place Only market of the withdrawn horse(s) at the time of withdrawal.
| Place Only Rule 4 Deductions Table | |||
| Amount deducted from winnings | |||
| Price of non-runner at time of withdrawal | Place Only 2 | Place Only 3 | Place Only 4 |

| 5/4 to 6/4 | 20p in the £ | 15p in the £ | 10p in the £ |
| 13/8 to 7/4 | 20p in the £ | 15p in the £ | 10p in the £ |

| 10/3 to 4/1 | 10p in the £ | 10p in the £ | No Deduction |
| 9/2 and above | No Deduction | ||
If 2 or more horses are withdrawn, the total deduction will not exceed 90p.
If the selected horse is withdrawn from a race after coming under starter’s orders, bets placed on that horse will have lost as the horse will be deemed to have been a participant in the race.
In the event of non-runners, the number of places paid will remain the same, unless the number of runners in the race is equal to or less than the number of places paid, in which case all bets will be void. This market is settled on the official place terms of the race. If an 8 horse race with each way terms of 3 places is reduced to a race of 7 or less runners, we will still pay 3 places on the Place Only market.
Normal dead-heat rules apply.
Match Betting
Predict a horse to finish one place ahead of another horse in a direct Head-To-Head during Race event.
A Match bet is based on one selection beating another according to the specific conditions advertised. Dead heat rules apply unless a tie price is made available (e.g. for a handicap match bet). One of the two selections in any match bet must complete the course for the bets to stand, otherwise bets are void.
Both selections must start for bets to stand, otherwise Match Bets are void.
Settlement of bets will be based on the official declared result.
If neither horse finishes a race with hurdles/fences, the number of hurdles/fences successfully completed in the race will determine the winner.
3. Greyhounds
General
Bets are settled on the official result called by the judge and any subsequent amendments will be ignored for settlement purposes.
Unless a show, early or ante post price is either offered or requested, all bets on greyhound racing will be settled at starting price returns. The starting price (SP) is the price available at the ‘off’ of a race. Where our SP or an industry SP is returned, this will take precedence over any other declared SP and will be used to settle bets where a no show, early or ante post price is requested. Where no SP is returned and no show, early or ante post price is requested, settlement will be based on the final show of betting transmitted by SIS. Where no betting shows are transmitted, greyhound bets will be void.
We cannot be held responsible for any errors or omissions in respect of accuracy in publishing or issuing of prices or information, despite every effort being made to ensure total accuracy. We reserve the right to correct these errors.
Each Way
Bets are accepted on win or each way. Using the each way checkbox will double the unit stake placed on the winner selection. It will contain one bet on the Winner and another bet on the Place. Terms will be written in the header of the event eg. E/W 1/4 1-2
| Number of Runners | Not Handicap race |
| 2 – 4 | Win Only |
| 5 – 7 | 1/4 odds for Places 1 to 2 |
| 8 | 1/5 odds for place 1 to 3 |
The each way terms shown above are determined by the number of runners at the start of a race, not by when the bet was placed. If you place an each way bet for a race that is win only, the total stake will be invested in a win. For the purpose of settlement, each way doubles, trebles etc. are settled as two distinct bets, i.e. win on ‘to win’ and place on ‘to place’.
Each way bets are not accepted on unnamed favourites.
Dead Heats
When a dead heat occurs for first place, the stake money on the winning selection will be divided by the number of winners, with full odds paid at the reduced stake. The remainder of the stake is lost. Where an each-way bet involves a dead heat winner, the win part of the bet will be settled as above, and the place part will be settled in full, in accordance with the relevant place terms. Should the dead heat involve placed selections and results in more than the allocated number of places, then the stakes will be divided as before, and settled to the full place terms.
Ante Post/Outright
Standard Ante Post/Outright rules apply.
Show/Early Prices
Show prices are the current prices on offer at the course during the period before a race. Early prices are special prices compiled by the traders and are usually offered up until 15 minutes before the off of a race. Prices are subject to fluctuation. If you want a bet at show/early price you must request it at the time of placing your bet.
In the case of a non-runner, any bets at show prices or early prices will be settled at the starting price.
Re-Runs
Where a race has been declared a no-race and is re-run, all bets will stand for the greyhounds that take part in the re-run. The prices returned on the re-run will govern the settlement. Show/Early prices will stand for a re-run unless there is a non-runner, in which case all bets will be settled at the SP. A re-run greyhound race is taken in the order in which it was originally placed in the programme, irrespective of the time at which it was re-run. Where a race has been declared a no-race and is not re-run, all bets for that race will be made void and will not count for any additional race.
Favourites
Bets on the Favourite are accepted win-only at the starting price. Early prices or board prices cannot be taken on unnamed favourites.
The favourite is the greyhound quoted at the shortest odds in the official starting prices.
Where you nominate the favourite and two or more runners start at the same odds and these odds are shorter than those quoted against any other, then these two are equal first favourites and equal second favourites.
If two or more co-favourites are selected, the stake will be divided equally between them and paid at full odds.
4. Basketball
General
All games must start on the scheduled date (local time) for bets to have action. An exception is made if incorrect start time is announced on our website. If odds were offered with an incorrect match time (more than 5 minutes), it will be our concern to void any bet.
If a game venue is changed, bets already placed will stand providing the home team is still designated as such. If the home and away team for a listed match are reversed, then bets based on the original listing will be void.
Markets do not consider overtime unless otherwise stated on market description (Incl. OT or Only OT):
- Pre-Match markets
- Winner (Incl. OT)
- Asian Handicap (Incl. OT)
- Matchbet + Over/Under (Incl. OT)
- Over/Under (Incl. OT)
- Home Team – Over/Under (Incl. OT)
- Away Team – Over/Under (Incl. OT)
- Winning Margin (Incl. OT)
