Wager pre match start on +1.5 sets for a player A.
Player A wins 1st set. 2nd set 1 game is finished and Player B retires.

In the past has been graded as win for player A.

They marked it as cancelled stating there was a retirement.

There rules state for tennis "all bets will be cancelled if retirement or DQ happens, unless market has already been determined"



Any thoughts or suggestions?

Used to play at bookmaker and they clearly state that if retirement occurs all bets will be refunded and cancelled no matter how far along.

You might have a case. Maybe they were confused and thought it was +1.5 games. I know I’ve had matches where I have over graded before match is over. So it’s not like offshore where that would be void if match wasn’t completed.

On all set spreads betting, the full match has to be completed or else it's no action. The "unless the market has been predetermined" refers to betting totals. For example if you bet the over 18 games and the match was stopped with 19 games played, you win the bet.

That’s not how their rules read. And I’m pretty sure I’ve experienced same thing as op before where they would grade it a win. I’ll see if I can find it in my bet history

I've never seen a book that graded a -1.5/+1.5 sets without the full match completed. Even though it's numerically impossible to win the bet, they still have to complete it because there's a possibility that other player might retire as well.

From reading that, I'd agree that you have a case.

Was surprised to not see a line that said handicaps/totals are void unless match fully completed.

Talked to 3 different guys. 1st guy just said it was a walkover and I sent him 2 links and draftkings fantasy app results. he quit responding.

2nd guy said it was cancelled because the other player could of won sets 2 and 3. So i kindly asked him well if player B won set 2 and 3 after player A won set one How would my wager of been graded. He said a winner.

So I was just trying to get some answer on what the "unless the market has been determined" meant. Didn't know if "Market" meant a set number (over 20.5 games or +6.5games) or if it meant the bet has zero other outcome.

either way, zero help. It wasn't for alot of money, so not too concerned, but good to know moving forward as I'm 99.6% sure I've had wagers graded on this before with retirements involved

But since they couldn't give me an answer on what "market has been determined" meant was a little worrisome as it give them leeway to grade however they please. I asked them to be a little more specific in their rules if possible. it was a tad confusing.

Your bet has been determined as any natural conclusion of the game would have Player A covering +1.5 sets. So your bet should be paid.
