If a match is suspended or postponed, and not resumed within 12 hours from the actual scheduled start time, then wagers on the match will have no action and be refunded.
The exception being any wager on whether a team/player advances in a tournament, or wins the tournament, will have action regardless of a suspended or postponed match.
2. If the name of a player/team is misspelled, all bets will stand unless it is obvious it is the wrong object.
3. If in an official match a player plays with the wrong nickname or on a smurf-account, the result is still valid unless it is evident that it is not the player that was supposed to play that match.
4. All wagers will be settled using the official result as declared by the relevant governing body of the competition concerned.
5. If a draw option has not been made available, then extra time will count, if played.
6. Handicap betting: A spread in E-Sports can be Rounds/Maps or other counting measures dependent on the game. The spread will only be referred to as the spread. (For example, in Counter Strike the spread will be rounds won, while in Starcraft 2 the spread would be maps).
Handicapping is a way of making a sports contest more even and thus more interesting as a betting object. In E-Sports betting, this is done by awarding one of the teams/players, the underdog, some maps/rounds ahead.
For example: Handicap Odds Player A -1.5 2.00 Player B +1.5 1.85 If Player A wins the match by two maps or more, Player A bettors win and Player B bettors lose. If Player A wins by exactly one map or Player B wins, Player B bettors win and PlayerA bettors lose.

8. If a map is not completed because of a player retirement or disqualification, all bets on the outcome will have action and will be validated based on the official declared winner. Counter-Strike maps are exceptions to this rule, for which all moneyline, spread and total bets are canceled if a team retires or is disqualified before all scheduled map rounds are played.
Should a player/team withdraw before a tournament begins, or retire during a tournament, bets on that player/team to win the tournament, or to advance in tournament, will be canceled and monies refunded.
If the respective player/team withdraws before the tournament begins while being listed as “must start”, then wagers on whether a player/team advances in tournament or wins the tournament, will have no action and monies refunded – this applies to all players/teams participant in the tournament.
If the announced number of maps/rounds is changed all bets on the handicap or total are cancelled. Bets on the moneyline (outcome of the match) have action.
If a player or team receives a walkover or win by admin decision on at least one map, all wagers on the series (moneyline, spread and total) will be canceled and monies refunded.

Line Types
We offer 3 different types of lines for Hockey; The Canadian Line, 3 Way Option), and Straight Money Lines.
Hockey Betting | Canadian Line
The Canadian line is a combination of a goal and money line. The money line is a 20 cent line for straight bets.
Example:
Boston Bruins +1 1/2 -140
L.A. Kings -1 1/2 +120
If betting on the Kings the customer would give-up a goal and a half and would risk $100 to win $120, the Kings must win by at least two goals. If betting on the Bruins the customer would get a goal and half but would risk $140 to win $100.
Hockey Betting | Money Line
All money line options are prices to win the game outright, according to NHL .
Example:
Boston Bruins +110
L.A. Kings -130
If you select the Bruins to win the game, betting $100 would win you $110. If you select the Kings to win, you would need to risk $130 to win $100.
Hockey Betting | Totals Over/Under
Example:
Bruins +1 1/2 -140 5 OVER -130
Kings -1 1/2 +120
As well as having favorites on sides you also have favorites on totals, in this example over the total of five goals is indicated as the favorite in which case the customer would lay $130 to win $100. If betting on the game to go under five goals the customer goes with the underdog so he/she receives a larger return in this case risking $100 to win $110. If there is no money line indicated the total has a "FLAT" line or -110 whether betting over or under, in which case the customer would lay $110 to win $100 either way. When you wager on total goals, if the score falls on the number in this case five, it will be "no action".
Hockey Parlays Betting
Hockey Parlays
With hockey parlays you can combine anywhere from 2 to 8 teams into a single wager resulting in higher betting payouts as in baseball parlays. Note: Hockey parlays are calculated as they are in baseball. Maximum parlay payout is $10,000.
Hockey Wagering
Concluded hockey games are official after 55 minutes of play (includes outright and 60 minute wagering).
Third period lines in hockey DO NOT include overtime.
Overtime is included in NHL, NCAA, and all other North American Leagues. In the NHL, the winner in overtime or shootout is credited with a goal. This goal counts towards the final score for grading purposes.
Any shootout that does not result in either team being credited with an additional goal, will NOT count for wagering purposes.
The final score in hockey for international games and all leagues outside of North America do NOT include overtime. Overtime and shoot-outs do not count unless the wagering option (OUTRIGHT) or (ADVANCES) is listed.

IF Bet

If bets help customers who want to have action on more than one game but based on the result of the 1st wager. There are 2 types of if bets, "If Win Only" and "If Win/Ties or cancelled.
If Win Only example:
501. Dallas Cowboys -5 $110 to win $100
If Win Only
504. Carolina Panthers +4 $110 to win $100
If the Cowboys lose, the wager stops there and is scored a loser -$110; if the Cowboys win +$100 the wager continues to the Panthers wager; if the Panthers win, the wager is a $200 winner; if the Panthers lose the wager is a $10 loss. If the Cowboys win by exactly 5, then there will be no action on the Carolina Panthers and the 110 will go back to your account.
If Win/Ties or cancelled example:
501. Dallas Cowboys -5 $110 to win $100
If Win/Ties or cancelled
504. Carolina Panthers +4 $110 to win $100
In this case, customers will have action on the second part of the wager if Dallas wins by 5 or more points.

Reverse
Reverse Bets
A Reverse wager connects two contestants in two separate IF bets. The first IF would connect contestant A to contestant B, the second bet would connect contestant B to contestant A.
Keep in mind Reverses are If bets where you need to select if win only or if win/ties or cancelled.
Example:
A customer wants a $100 Action Reverse with the New England Patriots -9, and the Denver Broncos +6… the play would look like this.
Part A: New England Patriots -9 Risking $110 to win $100, If that play wins or pushes then there will be action on the Denver Broncos +6 risking $110 to win $100. If the New England Patriots don't cover the -9 spread then there will be no action on the Denver Broncos +6.
AND
Part B: Denver Broncos +3 risking $110 to win $100, if that play wins or pushes then there will be action on the New England Patriots -9 risking $110 to win $100. If the Broncos don't cover the +6 spread then there will be no action on the Patriots -9.
The total risk amount is $220.00, but the player has a possibility of winning up to $400.00.

Action Points
Action Points
Action Points are available for football and basketball. Action Points are for the bettor who not only can predict which team will win the game, but by how many points. Your action point wager is capped from 1 point to a maximum of 10 points, and the wager you risk cannot exceed your available balance. On this type of wager, you risk $110 for every $100 wagered.
Example:
Atlanta Hawks 191
Houston Rockets -5
Suppose you wager $100 a point on the Houston Rockets and ask for a cap of 10 points. Houston must win by at least 5 points, and for every point over the point spread of 5 that they win by, you win $100. You have the chance of winning between $100 and $1,000.
If Houston wins by 9 points, your net winnings would be $400. On the other hand, if Houston fails to cover the point spread, you risk $110 for every point that they fall short of the 5-point spread. You can also use totals either over or under, or the underdog in the game, getting 5 points.
Action points can only be placed through our call center.
-
Money Line

Round Robins
Round Robins
Round Robin is a wager in which three to ten teams or totals are combined into a single play and all possible combinations of Parlays chosen by the customer. Any pick that can be parlayed may be placed in a Round Robin.
Because the Round Robins are turned into Parlays, the same apply as in a regular Parlay:
• If one of the teams loses, all parlay combinations with that team are a loss.
• If one team pushes, then all combinations with that team would turn into the lower Parlay or Straight bets risking the same amount of the Parlay.
• Open spots are not allowed in Round Robins.
• Points may be bought on as many picks as the customer wants in a Round Robin, as long as the Round Robin is broken into only 2 or 3 team combinations.
Also, whatever the player risks on the Round Robin must be applied to each of the 2 Parlay combinations
Example:
New York Knicks +7 -110
Houston Rockets +8 -110 - A $50 RR, in combinations of 3 by 2's
Cleveland/Denver Over 188 -110
1st Parlay 2nd Parlay 3rd Parlay
Knicks +7 Knicks +7 Houston +8
Houston +8 Cleveland / Denver Over 188 Cleveland / Denver Over 188
Risk $50 / Win $130 Risk $50 / Win $130 Risk $50 / Win $130
A 3 team Round Robin for $50 has 3 possible 2 team Parlay combinations, so the maximum risk would be $150; each parlay would win $130, so the maximum win would be of $390.
