- Bonuses shall be non-transferable and non-refundable.
- We only allow one bonus per account/household or environments where computers are shared.
- A bonus is only valid if the rollover requirement associated with the said bonus has been fulfilled.
- These requirements may vary depending on the bonus given and you must always refer to the terms and conditions of the particular bonus for clarification.
- Please note that bonuses are not cumulative, for example, if we are offering a 10% sign-up bonus this cannot be combined with other promotions or specials to become, for example, a 20% bonus.
- Poker bonuses fall under an entirely separate agreement and are awarded and released within the poker application.
- Match-play bonuses awarded in the Instant Casino require a real money deposit to be made before the member is eligible to receive these bonuses.
- Sign-up bonuses, reload bonuses and other cash rewards will expire in 30 days. Any unused portion of the bonus will be removed at that time.
- Sign-up bonuses, reload bonuses and other cash rewards are subject to the following standard rollover requirements:
- Sports-betting activity equal to 20 x the amount of the bonus.

OUR SOCIAL RESPONSIBILITY
As an internationally respected
online gaming company we are committed to promoting a responsible
attitude to gambling.
For most people gambling is entertainment – an enjoyable
activity that has no harmful effect. But for some it becomes a serious
problem. Compulsive gambling is not easily detected and individuals
with gambling problems will often go to great lengths to disguise the
addiction and the problems that it causes.
We are concerned about problem gambling. We will immediately
inactivate any wagering account belonging to a member for whom gambling
has become a problem and that account will remain permanently closed.
Furthermore, any new accounts opened by that member will be inactivated.
Neither do we condone underage gambling. Members must be at
least 18 years of age.
SPORTING EVENTS
Las Vegas rules, regulations, payoffs and wager types apply
where not covered herein.
All sporting events must be played on date and site scheduled
unless otherwise specified. Sporting events postponed by more than 12
hours and or rescheduled, will constitute ‘no-action’, and all money
will be credited accordingly.
All bets must be made and accepted before the start of the
game/event wagered upon. Any bet placed or received after the start of
the game/event wagered upon will be void.
Management reserves the right to limit the maximum amount
wagered prior to acceptance of any bet. Members are not permitted to
open multiple accounts in order to circumvent the limits imposed by our
wagering system. If multiple accounts are used then all bets will be
void.
In the event that monies are credited to a member’s account in
error, it is incumbent upon the member to notify Sportsbook of the
error without delay. Any winnings realized after the error, whether
directly or indirectly subsequent to the error but prior to
notification of Sportsbook, shall be void.
Sportsbook does not recognize suspended games, protests,
scoring amendments, result reversals and overturned decisions for
wagering purposes.
In order for a bet to be valid, the member must receive a bet
identification number from Sportsbook confirming that the bet has been
accepted. This number appears via a confirmation message that will
appear on your betting ticket.
In general, accepted bets cannot be cancelled or amended in
any way, either by the member or by Management, except in the following
circumstances:
- In the unusual case that a bet is duplicated by the system
(the time-stamp on the two bets will be identical) one of the bets may
be voided as long as the member contacts us before the event has taken
place.
- If the member has placed a bet that is stated as forbidden
in our House Rules then Management reserves the right to void that bet
regardless of whether the game has started or not.
- If the bet is placed after the result has become public
knowledge (Exotics, Television, Politics, etc).
Every effort will be made to ensure that all information
available on the internet site is accurate. However, if an error is
made in the prices or conditions published on-line, we reserve the
right to either correct any mistakes or to void the affected bets or to
settle any bets already laid at the correct price.
Winners and losers are official after:
- Football - NCAA & NFL - 55 minutes of play
- Basketball - NBA - 43 minutes of play
- Basketball - NCAA - 35 minutes of play
- Hockey - NHL - 55 minutes of play
- All other sporting events - 55 minutes of play
- Other sports: All other contests that involve a scheduled
length of play or time limit must play to their conclusion or have five
minutes or less of the scheduled playing time remaining when the
contest concludes to be considered official for wagering purposes.
In addition, please note that:
- Overtime periods, quarters or extra innings are counted in
the final score when wagering on totals, money line and
point-spreads(except in soccer).
- On half-time wagers, overtime is included as part of the
second-half in both side and total wagers.
- On fourth quarter wagers, overtime is not included as part
of the fourth quarter side or total.
- Scores and stats from overtime periods are also included
for proposition bets unless the prop bet specifically states that
overtime is not included.
All Bets Action: On certain future (long
term) bets there may be a clause stating: ‘All Bets Action’. This
means that the wager will have action whether or not the contestant on
whom you have bet takes part in the tournament/event.
Live Scores disclaimer: We are not
responsible for any inaccuracies in scores posted in our live scores.
Special Football Season Win Rules
‘NFL Season Win Totals’ only include regular
season games and all 16 regular season games must be played for
action. Play-off games and pre-season games do not count for this bet
offering.
‘NCAA Season Win Totals’ only include regular
season games. Each team must play their scheduled 12 regular season
games. Championship games and Bowl games do not count for this bet
offering. Teams must play all scheduled opponents.
Special Major League Baseball Rules
Major League Baseball games are official after 5 innings of play, or 4½ innings if the home team is leading. If a game is subsequently called or suspended, the winner is determined by the score after the last full inning unless the home team ties the score or takes the lead in the bottom half of the inning in which the game was suspended. In that case the winner will be determined by the score at the time the game is called. (This rule holds for betting purposes even if the game is suspended and /or completed on a different day than it began).
When wagering on total runs or run lines, the game must go the regulation 9 innings, or 8½ innings if the home team is leading, otherwise it will constitute a ‘no-action’ wager, and all money will be credited accordingly.
When you place a “money line” wager on baseball you can choose whether or not you would like your bet to have action in the event of a pitching change. The options are:
Listed: both listed pitchers must start.
Selected: the pitcher for the team on which you are betting must start.
Opposing: the pitcher for the opposing team must start.
Action: your bet will have action regardless of pitching changes.
Note: If there is a pitching change and you have selected to keep action on the wager, the odds of your bet will be adjusted to the odds as they stand when the game begins.
All other baseball wagers are accepted as ‘Listed.’ In the event of a pitching change prior to the game, all wagers on the game with said listed pitchers are considered ‘no-action’. All wagers will be refunded to members´ accounts as soon as official confirmation is received allowing you to make the bet again with the new pitcher and the new price if you so wish. Starting pitchers must throw at least one pitch for wager to be deemed ‘Action’. Each team´s starting pitcher is defined for betting purposes as the pitcher who throws the first pitch.
Any and all baseball series wagers must have all 3 games played by the end of a specified date for the wager to have action. If all 3 games are not played by that specified date then all wagers have ‘no-action’, regardless if one team has 2 wins. All 3 games must be official by Las Vegas Gaming Standards (see our rules regarding baseball wagers and what constitutes an official result).
Note: Each team’s starting pitcher is defined for betting purposes as the pitcher that throws the first pitch.
Note: If we provide a baseball series price for a series that has 4 games, for grading purposes, the wager is based on the initial 3 games.
All baseball props must go the full 9 innings (8½ if the home team is winning) unless otherwise stated. They also must start with the listed pitchers. If a game is suspended and/or completed on a different day than it began, props will be graded ‘no-action’ unless otherwise stated.
In baseball, all games that go at least the full 9 innings and finish tied as a result of a suspension of play, shall be graded as a push on all money line bets. However, all run line and total bets will have action. Note that this is an extremely rare occurrence. In the event of a change in Las Vegas rules, Sportsbook will adhere to the decision set forth in Las Vegas.
‘First Five Innings Bets’ are accepted as
‘listed pitchers’ and the game must go a full 5 innings to have action
regardless if the game is called or postponed after the 5th inning.
‘Team to Score First’ props are accepted as
‘listed pitchers’ and will be graded as soon as the first team has
scored and the home team has had a turn at bat. If the home team
scores first, that bet will be graded at that time and bets are action
regardless of game suspension or postponement. If the visiting team
scores first, the bet will be graded once the home team has completed
its turn at bat.
‘Will there be a Score in the First Inning?’ props are accepted as ‘listed pitchers’ and will be graded as soon as
the first inning ends. All bets will be action regardless of game
suspension or postponement, as long as the first inning is completed.
‘Total Runs + Hits + Errors’ props are
accepted as ‘listed pitchers’ and the game must go the full 9 innings
(8½ if the home team is winning) for bets to have action.
For ‘In-Game Betting’ games must go a full
8½ innings for bets to have action.
Baseball Player and Pitcher Props are
accepted as ‘listed pitchers’. The game must go a full 9 innings (8½
if the home team is winning) for bets to have action. If there is a
pitching change, all player props for that game will be closed
immediately. When the game starts and it is confirmed that a pitcher
other than the pitcher listed on the bet threw out the first pitch,
those props will have ‘no-action’. (If the game is suspended and/or
completed on a different day than it began, Player/Pitcher Props will
have ‘no-action’).
Baseball Grand Salami: The Baseball Grand
Salami will be decided by the total runs scored in all major-league
games scheduled for that day. All scheduled games must go at least 9
innings (8.5 if the home team is winning). If any scheduled game is
canceled or stopped before the completion of 8.5 innings, all wagers on
the Baseball Grand Salami will be canceled. No pitchers will be listed
for the Grand Salami; all wagers will have action regardless of the
starting pitchers.
Game and Team Totals Odd or Even - bets are 'listed pitchers'. If there is no score all bets will be settled as even.
Other Baseball Tournaments or Leagues
For NCAA Baseball games or any other non-MLB league pitchers are generally not listed or required.
Moneyline bets (and total and/or runline bets, if offered) will be scored in accordance with MLB rules except pitching changes will not affect the bet.
If pitchers are listed, games will be treated in exactly the same way as MLB games.
Boxing
When the bell sounds for the first round, the bout
(fight) will be considered official, regardless of the scheduled length
or title.
The official stopping of a round before the sounding of the
bell does not constitute a full round. A full round is only considered
for wagering purposes when the bell sounds signifying the end of said
round.
Special Boxing Rule: Fights must be run
within two months of the specified date for your bet to have action.
Boxing Proposition Bets: For any proposition
bets the following apply:
- The rules stated on the card at the time of placing the
wager will govern.
- When the bell sounds for the first round, the bout will be
considered official.
When wagering on ‘Pick the Round’ propositions, in which you
must pick the round in which the bout is won, the following will apply:
- If the fight ends in a points verdict or a draw, the bettor
loses.
- If either fighter fails to answer the bell for a round, the
fight is adjudged to have finished in the previous round.
However, this does not apply to specific fight props which
must come-out as stated, such as a draw, either fighter by knockout or
decision, or a specific round knockout etc.
Golf
For tournament match-up betting, both players listed in the
match-up must tee-off for your bet to be deemed ‘Action’. The player
with the most completed holes wins. If the players complete the same
number of holes, then the player with the lowest score wins. If the
players are still tied then the wager shall be deemed ‘no-action’ and
all monies will be refunded. If both golfers in a match-up are in a
playoff, the winner of play-off wins the match-up.
Should a tournament be shortened, or otherwise affected, due
to weather conditions the official result will be used when settling,
regardless of the number or rounds played. However, should there be no
further play after a bet is struck that bet will be void.
Single day match-ups are wagers on the particular day’s
18-holes. Single Day match-ups do not include holes played as part of
a completion from the previous day’s round or playoff holes considered
part of the overall tournament score. Should a day’s round be
shortened, or otherwise affected, due to weather conditions and the
round is continued the next day, the full 18 holes shall be considered
in determining the outcome of the bet even if they are played over two
days. Both golfers must tee off for action. If both players end the
18 holes in a tie, the money line wagers shall be refunded and stroke
line wagers will be deemed ‘Action’.
For single round-single player propositions, all 18 holes must
be completed.
For single round betting on match play tournaments, the players/team
must tee off for action. 18 holes do not necessarily need to be played.
Golf Odds to Win: Wagers on a golfer who does
not play in the tournament are graded as ‘no-action’ and all monies
refunded (unless otherwise specified). A golfer is deemed to have
played once he or she has teed off. In the event of a player
withdrawing after having teed off, wagers on that player will be lost.
Stroke Line Betting: In golf the lower score
wins. If you bet (-1/2) stroke, your golfer must shoot 1 or more shots
lower than the opponent. If you bet (+1/2) your golfer must shoot the
same score or a lower score than the opponent. Example: should you bet
Singh (-1/2) vs. Mickelson and Singh shoots 69, Mickelson 70, then
Singh (-1/2) is the winner. If Singh shoots 69 and Mickelson shoots 69,
then Mickelson (+1/2) is the winner.
Rules for Finishing Top 3: In the case of a
tie or multiple players finishing in the top 3 position, wagers will be
paid using our Dead Heat Rule.
Matchplay Matchups
If a match does not start (e.g. player injured or disqualified before the start of a match) then all bets on that match will be void.
Bets on markets that can be settled by using the official tournament and match results (including final match correct score and individual match betting) will be settled using those results. This includes where a match finishes early either by agreement of the players or through injury.
All other markets where a match finishes before completion of 18 holes (e.g. by agreement), such as match score, will be settled as if the remaining uncompleted holes are ties. For example, a player 2 up at the 13th hole when the match finishes will be deemed to have won 2 and 1 (at the 17th hole). Uncompleted single hole bets will be void.
Las Vegas Rules apply for any rules not mentioned here.
General Soccer Rules
Bets on soccer matches (except those on Under 17s matches) will be settled on
90 minutes of play. This includes any time added by the referee in
respect of injuries and other stoppages. In major knock-out
tournaments, for example the latter stages of the World Cup, where a winner
is required in order to progress to the next leg, bets are still settled on
90 minutes of play. Extra Time, Golden Goals and Penalty Shoot-Outs do
not count. A separate bet on Extra Time may be offered if Extra Time is
played.
Bets on Under 17s Soccer matches will be settled on 80 minutes of play plus any time added by the referee in respect of injuries and other stoppages.
Match details, such as dates and kick-off times, displayed on the
website are for guidance only and may be amended or taken off the board
at any time. Soccer events officially postponed by more than 12 hours
and/or rescheduled, will constitute 'no-action' and all money will be
credited accordingly.
If a match is abandoned and/or suspended all bets shall be void unless the relevant wagering option has already been decided. For example, a bet on the �First Goal Scorer' will stand if a goal has already been scored.
Where a venue is changed, bets will stand unless the game is to be played at the original away team's ground in which case all bets will be voided.
When wagering on the outcome of a soccer game you have three options to choose from:
- team A to win,
- team B to win or
- the game to end in a draw/tie.
Bets are on 90 minutes of play plus any time added by the referee in respect of injuries and other stoppages. If, after 90 minutes of play, the game ends in a draw/tie, the selections team A to win and team B to win will be considered losing bets.
For some matches there may also be a proposition available called 'Draw No Bet'. Bets taken on this prop must predict which team wins the match in regular time (90 minutes plus any time added by the referee in respect of injuries and other stoppages). In the event of the match ending in a draw (tie), bets on this proposition will be 'no action'.
Soccer parlays: When you parlay multiple games together, you must correctly predict the outcome of all games in the parlay in order to collect any winnings. If a game ends in a draw but you have not selected a draw as the outcome, this would count as a loss on that selection (and the whole parlay). You cannot mix moneylines and totals in a soccer parlay.
Bets taken on 'Half Time Results' will be settled on 45 minutes of the first half plus any added injury time or stoppage time.
Bets taken on '2nd Half Lines' will be settled on the 45 minutes of the
second half plus any added injury or stoppage time. Extra Time, Golden
Goals and Penalty Shoot-Outs do not count. Goals scored in the first half
do not count toward the second half wager.
Betting on 'Extra Time': The Extra Time consists of 30 minutes of play
(two halves of 15 minutes each) plus any time added to this by the referee in
respect of injuries and other stoppages. Results achieved during
regular time and/or penalty shoot-outs do not count.
Bets taken on 'First Goal Scorer' will be void if the player does not take
part in the game or enters the game after a goal has already been scored.
Goals scored in extra time or during penalty shoot outs do not count.
Bets taken on 'Last Goal Scorer' will be void if the player does not play or enters the game as a substitute. Goals scored in extra time or during penalty shoot outs do not count.
'Goal Scorer Match Bet' odds are based on how one person/team will compare with another in the same or a similar event. The two selections do not necessarily have to play each other in a win/lose situation; the grading is determined by one selection's relative performance to the other. For tournaments, both players must take part in at least one game in the tournament, else all bets are void. Goals scored during penalty shoot outs do not count. If players tie, all bets are void. (Bets are based on 90 minutes play only plus injury time).
Bets taken on the 'Soccer Grand Salami' must predict the total (over/under) goals scored in a particular soccer league per round or league fixture (including games played on both weekdays and weekends as long as they comprise part of the same round). If any scheduled game is canceled/postponed/rearranged all wagers on the Soccer Grand Salami will be canceled/no action.
Future bets placed on 'Odds to Win' must predict the team winning the division, league or any other tournament and will be paid as soon as the said division, league or tournament has finished.
Bets taken on 'Correct Score' must predict the match score at the end of regular time (90 minutes plus any time added by the referee in respect of injuries and other stoppages).
Bets taken on 'Double Chance' must predict the outcome of the match based on three selections, either:
- the Home or Away team wins,
- the Home team wins or draws or
- the Away team wins or draws.
Bets taken on 'Half with Most Goals' must predict which half has most goals scored by either team in regular time (90 minutes plus any time added by the referee in respect of injuries and other stoppages).
When betting on 'Double Result' (half time - full time) you must predict the result at half time and at the end of normal time (90 minutes).
When betting on 'Goals: odds or even' you must predict if the total score by both teams ends up as an odd or an even number. A 0-0 score counts as an even number. Bets will be settled on 90 minutes of play plus any time added by the referee in respect of injuries and other stoppages.
Bets taken on 'Kick Off Bet' must predict which team will kick-off the match. Odds will be taken off the board 15 minutes before the match's starting time.
For the 'Goal/No Goal' bet you can choose to wager on either 'Goal' for both teams to score, or 'No Goal' for either or both teams not to score.
When betting on 'Soccer Special Props' or 'Match Specials' you are required to predict the team or teams to win the game, event, tournament, competitions, match-up or any other situation within the game. Any cancelled or postponed game will cause the entire event to have 'no action'. Soccer Specials will be settled on 90 minutes of play.
When betting on 'Asian Handicap' you are essentially betting on a point (or goal) spread. Asian Handicap offers only two betting options rather than the three possible outcomes normally offered on a soccer game (namely home, away or draw).
- A +0.5 (1.95)
- B -0.5 (1.95)
In this example, if you bet on team A they must win or draw the match for you to win your bet. If you bet on team B they must win by at least one goal for you to win your bet.
Betting on one of just two outcomes makes things simpler and it also allows you to get a better price when betting on the favorite. Where offered, the Asian handicap will always include a half-ball, i.e. the spread will be +/- 0.5, +/- 1.5 or higher. All Asian Handicap bets are based on regular time (90 minutes plus any time added by the referee in respect of injuries and other stoppages).
In a 'Fantasy Soccer Match-up' two teams compete virtually. The winner of this match-up is the team that scores the most goals on the actual match-day against a real opponent. Only goals are counted, victory or loss is irrelevant.
For example: On a particular day Manchester United plays Manchester City and Chelsea plays Bolton.
You choose to bet on a Fantasy Match-up, Manchester United vs. Chelsea. Manchester United win their match 1-0 against Manchester City, while Chelsea loses 2-4 to Bolton. However, Chelsea would win the Fantasy Match-up with a 2 -1 score.
In-Running Soccer betting is offered on selected games. Once the game starts, in-running odds will be posted on the site under �In-Running Soccer� and will be updated constantly during the game, unless the game becomes extremely one-sided, in which case in-running betting will be suspended. In-Running Soccer wagers are based on the final result of the entire game (90 minutes plus any added injury time or stoppage time).
Beach Soccer: Beach Soccer is based on 36
minutes of play (3 periods of 12 minutes) followed by extra periods and
penalty shots, if necessary, to decide who wins the match. Bets are
graded on normal regulation time (36 minutes plus any time added by the
referee in respect of injuries and other stoppages). Extra Time and
Penalty Shoot-Outs do not count for wagering purposes.
Futsal: All bets on Futsal matches are based
on the score at the end of 40 minutes' play unless otherwise stated or
if the relevant wagering option has already been decided. Extra Time
and Penalty Shootouts do not count. If a match is abandoned and/or
suspended before the completion of 40 minutes' play, all bets shall be
void unless the relevant wagering option has already been decided. All
bets on matches that are postponed, rearranged or moved to a different
venue shall be void.
Cricket Match Betting
In matches affected by adverse weather bets will be governed by the official competition rules with the following exception: if a match is decided on either a bowl out or the toss of a coin then all bets will be void.
Where no price is quoted for the tie and the official competition rules do not determine a winner then Dead-Heat rules will apply, in competitions where a bowl out or super over determines a winner then bets will be settled on the official result.
If a match is abandoned due to outside interference then bets will be void unless a winner is declared based on the official competition rules. In the event of a change of opponent from the one advertised then all bets for that match are void.
If a match is cancelled then all bets will be void if it is not replayed within 36 hours of its advertised start time.
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 placed based on the original listing will be void.
Hockey
For wagering purposes, winners and losers are determined by
the final score, provided that the game has gone the minimum time as
specified above.
Overtime: For wagering on games in the
National Hockey League, the final score includes overtime. Regardless
of the number of goals scored during the shootout portion of overtime,
the final score recorded for the game will give the winning team one
more goal than the score at the end of regulation time.
Personal Player Stats and other Stats achieved during an NHL Shootout are not taken into account for certain
proposition bets, for example: Player Total Shot on Goals, Player Total
Points, Player Total Goals, Team to Score First, Team to Score Last.
Game and Team Totals Odd or Even - If there is no score all bets will
be settled as even.
Las Vegas rules, regulations, payoffs and wager types apply
where not covered herein.
Rugby
For Rugby Games, if any match is abandoned or postponed all
bets will be void, except bets on the first try scorer if a try has
been scored prior to abandonment.
Where a venue is changed, bets will stand unless the game is to be
played at the original away team’s ground in which case all bets will
be void.
Tennis
For Tennis Match betting, at least two full sets must be
completed for wagers to stand. If less than two sets are completed
then all wagers will be considered no action. For example, if a player
retires from a game when two sets have already been completed, all bets
will stand, with the player progressing to the next round deemed as
winner.
In the event of any of the following circumstances, all bets
will stand:
-
A change of playing surface
-
A change of venue
-
A change from indoor court to
outdoor court or vice versa
-
The match is delayed due to
inclement weather/bad light and is completed on a later date.
In these instances, any bets will be settled on the final
outcome after the conclusion of play.
Motorsports
When placing a wager on ‘Odds to Win’ a race, wagers shall be
deemed ‘no-action’ should the driver not start the race. For a motor
sports match-up to be deemed ‘Action’ both drivers must start the
race. The start of any motor race is defined as the signal to start
the warm-up lap. The official winner at the conclusion of the race
will be the winner for betting purposes. In League Championship
wagering, drivers must race in at least one race during the season to
be deemed ‘Action’.
Special Motorsport Rule: Races must be run
within eight (8) days of the scheduled date for your bet to have
action.
The NASCAR.com website is our
official source for the grading of all NASCAR wagers. The race must
complete the scheduled number of laps and/or distance for specific
proposition wagers (pertaining to number of laps and/or distance) to be
deemed ‘Action’. Match-ups, finishing position props and future wagers
will still have action regardless.
Rules for Finishing Top 3: In the case of a
tie or multiple players finishing in the top 3 position, wagers will be
paid using our Dead Heat Rule.
Formula 1: At least 15 drivers must start
the race for action.
NCAA Hoops
In the event of a tie in NCAA conference wagering, the team
entering the conference tournament ‘seeded’ higher shall be deemed the
winner.
Parlay or Multiple Betting
No parlay wagers can be accepted where individual wagers are
‘connected’, ‘dependent’ or ‘correlated’. Using a baseball game as an
example, let's say you want to take the Boston Red Sox to win on the
money-line and the Boston Red Sox on the run-line. If the Boston Red
Sox win the game, it is also likely that they will win by at least two
runs therefore the selections are said to be ‘correlated’ and cannot be
parlayed together. For the same reason, we do not allow the
favorite/underdog on the runline and the over/under of the same game to
be placed in the same parlay.
In the same way, you cannot parlay the line for the first half
of a football game with the line for the whole game or the total for
the first half of a football game with the total for the whole game, as
the two are ‘dependent’. Less obviously, but nonetheless correlated,
are the favorite/underdog on the spread and the over/under of the same
game placed together in a parlay or teaser bet when the spread is
greater than or equal to 30% of the total.
Dead Heat Rule
In the event of a dead heat (a tie), stakes will be divided by
the number of selections that have tied, with the divided stake settled
at full odds. Remaining stakes are lost. If the tie was a betting
option, then the dead heat rule does not apply. The dead heat rule
only applies to 'future' wagers. For example, if there is a 3 way tie
for the top scorer in a basketball game, then your winnings are
calculated by taking your stake, dividing it by 3, and multiplying that
amount by the odds on your betting ticket.
Buying Points
Buying points allows you to change the point-spread or total
of a football or basketball game.
You can move the point-spread so you get more points when
betting the underdog or you give away fewer points when betting the
favorite. For each half point that you change the point spread you
need to pay an extra 10c.
So, for example, if you are betting the Lakers -5 -110 (lay
$110 to win $100), you can buy the Lakers a half point to -4.5 -120
(lay $120 to win $100). You can buy the Lakers a full point to -4 -130
(lay $130 to win $100).
The same theory is true for the underdog. If the Bulls are +4
-110, you buy the game to +4.5 -120 or +5 -130.
You can only buy a maximum of 3 points in Football and
Basketball, both College and Professional.
There are two special rules when buying points on the spread in football:
- With Pro Football spreads, when buying on or off the 3 there is a premium cost of 25c and when buying on or off the 7 there is a premium cost of 20c.
- With College spreads, when buying on or off the 3 or the 7 there is a premium cost of 20c.

POKER
Providing a safe and secure environment is essential to
players enjoying their online poker experience. At Sportsbook Poker we
are able to achieve this by ensuring cards are dealt randomly and
taking the necessary steps to eliminate cheating.
Integrity
The solution chosen for Random Number Generator/Shuffling is
critical to ensuring a fair game for all players in the Sportsbook Poker room. The Random Number Generator ensures the even distribution
of cards whereby no sequence or relationship can be discovered in any
way. The RNG solution used in the Sportsbook Poker room is the
cryptographically-secure RNG system found in Microsoft’s CryptoAPI.
Etiquette
Any player using racist, derogatory or abusive language on the
chat within the Sportsbook Poker room will have his/her chat privileges
removed and may be banned from the Sportsbook Poker room. Only the
English language is permitted on the chat. Neither shall the practices
of begging, solicitation or chat-flooding be tolerated.
Bonuses
Bonuses for Poker play shall be awarded and earned out in $10
increments within the Poker room. Once a portion of a bonus has been
earned it may be removed from the Poker room.
Disputes
The random number generator ("RNG") will determine the outcome
of the games or other promotions that utilize the “RNG”. Furthermore,
in the event of a discrepancy between the result showing on the
software and the gaming server, the result showing on the gaming server
shall be the official and governing result of the game.
Disclaimer
Any player found to be tampering with the poker software will
be banned permanently from the Sportsbook Poker room.
The use of Artificial Intelligence or “bots” is strictly forbidden.
Any players found to be colluding or participating in unethical play
will be banned permanently from the Sportsbook Poker room.
Any funds gained by cheating will be confiscated.
HORSE RACING INTERFACE

(and some other regions) via the racing interface which is accessible
once you have logged-in to your wagering account.
We accept wagers up until post time. We cannot assume
liability for wagers that are unsuccessfully entered before post time.
Before logging-out, please check your Active Wagers on the Reports menu
to make sure your bets were accepted.
Once you submit a bet online, your wager is considered final.
Bets shall not be accepted after post-time. In the event that
the race begins before the advertised post-time and for that reason (or

started, that wager will be void.

Management reserves the right to refuse or limit any wager and
to restrict wagering on any event at any time without any advance
notice.
Scratches
If a horse is scratched, all Win/Place/Show wagers placed via the
racing interface will be refunded. (This does not apply to 'Odds
to Win' bets placed via the sports betting interface. On those bets a
scratch counts as a loss). In case a horse is considered a
non-starter by the track, that horse will be considered a scratch and
refunded accordingly.
In exotic wagers (Exacta, Trifecta, Superfecta, Quinella) the
portion containing the scratched horse will be refunded. We do not
honor ‘all’ payouts in any exotic wager even though the track may do
so. In the case that there is an ‘all’ payout on a particular race, we
will replace the ‘all’ payout with the rightful winner of that race
and/or position.
On Daily Doubles, Pick 3 and Pick 4 wagers, a scratch will
result in an automatic refund of the combination including the
scratched horse. There will be no consolation payouts. No special
track payouts will be recognised:
Pick 3 and Pick 4 Grading and Payout Rules
All Pick 3 and Pick 4 tickets are paid out based on the
official race results published by the track at which the race was
run. If there is a scratched horse in any Pick 3 or Pick 4, only
combinations including the scratched horse will be refunded.
There will be no consolation payouts. No special track
payouts (such as payouts on scratched horses, 2 out of 3 special Pick 3
payouts and/or 3 out of 4 special Pick 4 payouts) will be recognised.
Official Source of Results
For thoroughbred racing we use www.equibase.com as our official source of results. For harness racing we use www.ustrotting.com or the
tracks’ websites.
In the event of a discrepancy, we will contact the track for
the official result.

Matchups
The following rules apply to horse matchup bets made via the
sports betting interface.
- In matchups between two or more named horses, all horses
must go for wagers to have action.
- Matchups are determined by horse name. Any information pertaining to race number, race track, etc are for curtsey purposes only. Also, any track coupling
is irrelevant towards determining the winner of a matchup.
- In matchups between one named horse and the Field, wagers
will have action if and only if the named horse starts. Scratches of
horses in the Field will not affect the standing of the wager.
- Matchups are not eligible for rebates.
- The winner of a matchup will be determined by the highest
placed finisher involved in the matchup. If no horse finishes, the
matchup will be graded no action.
- Matchup wagers which indicate ‘Turf Only’ will be cancelled
if the surface is changed.
- In the case of a dead heat, the matchup will be graded no
action.
PROMOTIONS
If, as part of a promotion offered by Sportsbook, you receive
betting cash, you can only use such amount as wagers for playing in the
games offered by the company. You are not entitled to withdraw such
amounts and we reserve the right to reclaim those amounts if you do not
use them to play the games during the period specified in the
promotion.
Only members of Sportsbook can redeem promotional prizes and
winnings from promotions.
If you have more than one betting account, all promotional
credits and/or winnings will be null and void and they will be deducted
from your account.
If a member wagers both sides of a game using a promotional
bet (to bet at the same time on the favorite and the underdog) or using
bonus money, Sportsbook considers that to be fraudulent behavior. This
includes making bets of this nature in two or more of our affiliated
websites. Any money won playing both sides of the game will be
deducted, together with any other promotional money deposited in the
member’s account.
Sportsbook reserves the right to modify any promotion rules or
cancel promotions at its own discretion.
MULTIPLE ACCOUNTS
Members are not permitted to open multiple accounts (either
within Sportsbook itself or affiliated websites) in order to circumvent
the limits imposed by our wagering system. Performing such an action
may trigger an audit of the member's accounts. If multiple accounts
have been used then all bets may be voided, accounts may be inactivated
and winnings may be forfeited.
MEMBER'S ADDRESS
It is your responsibility to ensure that we have your current
address on file at all times. You may only have one address on file at
a time, and this address MUST match the billing address of ALL cards
that have been used in the account. Any failure on your part to do
this may result in an audit on your account.
Before making a deposit and to avoid unnecessary delays in
processing your payouts, please make sure your address is correct and
that it matches bank records. In the event that we are not able to
verify your account information you may be required to submit
additional documentation for this purpose. This may include the
following:
- A photocopy of your picture ID (e.g. Driver's License,
passport)
- Photocopies (front and back) of your credit cards
- A credit card statement or recent utility bill (issued
within the last 6 months)
- A credit card verification form
- Imprint of your credit card
Before you request a withdrawal, please make sure your address
is correct and up-to-date. If a stop-payment request is necessary due
to an out-of-date address, it will be your responsibility to assume the
stop payment fees of a minimum of $50.
MULTIPLE CREDIT CARDS
The maximum number of credit cards allowed for use in one
account is five. All cards used on an account must be in the name of
the Sportsbook member.
LEGALITY
All bets made on Sportsbook, in the Sportsbook Casino or the Sportsbook Poker Room, are placed over the internet which reaches
virtually every country in the world. Some jurisdictions have not
